JAMES (JIM) STANLEY MORAN It is with sad hearts we announce the sudden passing of James Moran our treasured husband, dad, grandpa, uncle and friend on Sunday, October 15, 2006 at St. Boniface Hospital. James was born on October 23, 1935 in Portage la Prairie, MB, the fourth son of Leo and Beatrice Moran. He had eight siblings, seven brothers - Bob, Michael, Gerald, Brian, Wayne, Joe and Billy and one sister Carol. He attended Notre Dame College under the mentoring of Peré Murray and studied to become a teacher. He went on to teach in several schools, one being in Roblin, MB, where he met his beloved wife Jeanette, in 1958. He retired from teaching in Russell, MB. Jim and Jeanette moved to Winnipeg after his retirement and settled in Foxwarren Lakes. After his retirement, he volunteered with 22 different organizations in Winnipeg. Many sick, elderly and needy were touched by Jim's generous nature during his volunteer years. Jim belonged to the Knights of Columbus. He also volunteered his time to do the books at St. John Cantius Parish. Jim leaves to mourn, his loving wife Jeanette (Domareski); three children, Jamie (Debbie) of Russell, MB, Jo-Anne (Greg) Oucharek of Airdrie, AB and John (Jody) of Winnipeg; six grandchildren, Danielle, Tara, Mitchell, Andrew, Dylan, and Candace.
