It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of James Budge on Friday, April 1, 2011, at the Glace Bay Hospital.
Born in Glace Bay, he was the son of the late William and Mary (Moore) Budge.
In his early years, Jim was employed with Cape Breton Tramways Company Limited and later he enjoyed a long career with Sydney Steel Corporation, retiring after 40 years of service, in 1984. Jim was an avid fisherman who had a love for the ocean and spent many years in and around the water. He also loved gardening, but one of his greatest joys in life was his grandchildren and they will dearly miss him.
