Jim was born May 4, 1933 in St. Vital. He was employed at Parkdale till he retired in 1997. Jim was a loving and devoted family man with a great sense of humor and a big heart. He played Santa Claus with his wife Mrs. Claus for 26 years together bringing happiness and joy not only to his children and grandchildren but to hundreds of little ones. He coached baseball and hockey and was always eager to watch his kids and grandkids play, whether baseball, hockey, soccer or T-ball. He loved to play Bingo and got great pleasure in teasing and making everyone laugh. Jim has gone to join his brother Joe Normand and sister-in-law Ann Cutting Normand. He will be greatly missed but always loved.
