James "Jim" Donald
It is with heavy hearts, the family of the late James "Jim" Donald Martin, age 57, announce his passing on April 9, 2015 at his residence in Lower Sackville, NS. With his devoted wife and caregiver Karen by his side, Jim made his final journey in life. He was a courageous cancer fighter and he made his family and friends very proud through his determination to live life to the fullest, despite his limitations. Jim leaves to mourn, his loving wife Karen (nee Goosney), sons Donnie (Cindy), Michael (Tasha), his two grandchildren, Angel and Nicholi and his furry grandpuppy "Mia." Jim's love of electronics and business brought him to Nova Scotia in 1976, where he owned and operated Munroe's T.V. for the last 25 years. Back home (Woody Point, NL) he leaves to mourn his Parents, James (Sr.) and Dorothy Martin, Mother-in-law Pansy Goosney (Norman - deceased).
