James George Mills
Feb. 9, 1942-Aug. 22, 2021
Survived by wife Peggy, children Maureen, Jim (Melinda), and grandchildren Abby and Sam.
He is also survived by siblings Norman, Margaret (Eldon Brown) and Dianne.
Jim was born in Timmins, Ontario.
Jim’s career of 32 years with Lands and Forests which became the Ministry of Natural Resources brought several moves across Ontario, ultimately reaching the role of Fire Response Coordinator for the NW region in Dryden.
He was an avid family man and outdoorsman. Jim shared a lifelong passion for hunting, fishing, and trapping with his family and friends. He continued to look forward to the annual moose hunt including friends of over 60 years.
A private family service will take place at a later date.
