My sincerest regrets and regards to the entire Connell family. It was always a pleasure to have Jim working at Langdon’s knowing that all his passengers, including myself on a number of occasions, were in the best of hands. Reliable, dependable and thoughtful are certainly words that come to mind.

From my home in Muskoka , I read about the death of my former neighbour Jim. My thoughts are with Helen and the family while I recall great memories of our times with the family . I saw Helen and Kathleen at the funeral of Serina Atkinson but did not get a chance to say hello at that time. Sincere wishes to you now .
