It is with great sadness that the family announce the sudden passing of James on Wed. October 10th, 2018 at the age of 85. Jim was a gentle soul who's greatest love in life was his family. Son of the late James D. and Merle Smart. He is survived by wife Barbara (nee Skelton), sons Steven (Pauline) and Kevin (Beth), grandchildren Rachael, James (Letitia), Nicholas, great grandson Roland, and brothers Robert Smart of Hamilton & Clen Wooldridge (Diane) of Bracebridge. The family wishes to express their heartfelt appreciation to the Napanee Hospital and Convalescent Care Unit Nurses, Doctors and staff for their deep compassion. Many thanks to all that have been supportive and expressed their condolences. We can't thank you enough. In honoring Jim’s wishes, there will be no service and wished his ashes be laid to rest by immediate family, on the shores of Lake Mazinaw, the place he called home. Memorial donations may be made in Jim’s memory to the Land 0’Lakes Community Services - 12497A Hwy 41, NORTHBROOK, ON KOH 2G0 or the Lifesaving Society - 400 Consumers Rd. TORONTO, ON M2J 1P8. Forever missed...never forgotten
