James “Jim” Sim Sr. passed away peacefully at Belvedere Heights, on Saturday, November 23rd, 2024 in his 99th year.

Jim, a WWII veteran, developed his love for aviation at a young age and continued to pursue this passion over his lifetime. A proud career in the aerospace industry working on the development of the Canada Arm with Spar Aerospace was one of his greatest achievements before retiring.

Jim leaves behind his six children, eleven grandchildren, and six great-children.

Special thanks go out to Dr. Clarke, Dr. Hollingsworth, Natasha Fleming RPN, and all the caring staff at Belvedere Heights.

A private family interment will take place at Carling Cemetery.

Condolences

Jim and family. So sorry for your loss. Though time helps the healing, the memories will carry you through. Certainly through his achievements and great family, a life well lived. With sincere condolences. Ken

My sympathies to the family on Jim’s passing. As a municipal councillor in Carling Township, Jim was an enthusiastic contributor. I appreciated serving with him.

Sincere condolences Jim on your dad's passing. He certainly had a very long life surrounded by love of his passion and his family.

I'll remember working with your father very fondly. The sweet man always showed through to me, after his initial frustrations of aging and losing abilities. Sue Pilling
