John James Daly (Doc), late of Moose Jaw, was a soldier, husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. He passed away quietly on October 18, 2010 in Saskatoon at the age of 83.
Remembered by his family and friends as a great storyteller, Jim travelled extensively during his 33 year military career, and shared great insight about these travels. He loved his family, golf, good food and wine, and friends to share them with. Jim took great pride in his abilities as a cook and often treated his family and friends to wonderful dinners. He always had a dog and he loved them very much. He said they did more for him then he could ever do for them. He was also an artist as can be seen through his stained glass work on display in the Moose Jaw Legion. Jim was predeceased by his wife Helen, who he loved dearly and missed sorely to his dying day. He is survived by his children: Margaret (Michael) Sears, of Stuttgart Germany, Jay (Theda) Daly of Saskatoon, and Kathie (John) Powell of Edmonton, his grand and great-grandchildren, Nicholas, Sarah, Stephen, Rayna and Jill, Kaiya, Seth and Jack. The family sincerely thank the staff and his friends at Caleb Manor and the medical staff at St Paul’s Hospital in Saskatoon. Your kindness, patience and care were very much appreciated. Details of a Memorial Service will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers or donations, lift a glass in toast to Jim’s life and friendship. He would love that! Our dad/grandfather will be missed but never forgotten.
