It is with deep sadness and profound love that we mourn the passing of James Peter Moreau of Lively, Ontario on Friday, February 4, 2022 after a short and courageous battle with cancer. Our beautiful Jim will be forever missed by his loving wife Debby; his loving children who meant the world to him, Jason(Nicole), Russell(Joanne), Adam(Pam) and Lindsay (Nestor), ; his grandchildren Aidan, Rowan, Parker, Emily, and Adison; his brother, Harry; his mother-law, Cassy Lalonde, sister in law, Kirsty and favorite brother in law John and the many nieces and nephews that have loved him through the years. Jim was predeceased by his parents, James Sr. and Joyce (nee Watson), and his younger brother Doug. Jim had a long career with Sudbury Hydro as a lineman. He made so many dear friendships over those years which carried on after his retirement. Jim loved working outdoors, in the bush or wherever his job took him. He wasn’t fond of working in the cold (surprise!) but loved those hot sunny days. He also had an incredible talent for woodworking and showcased his talents by creating everything from furniture and jewellery boxes to decks and sheds. Twenty-two years ago, Jim and Debby met and quickly fell in love. They had finally found each other. They married and spent almost every single minute together camping or going on cross country adventures or just enjoying their time together. It was heaven on earth. Their parting words, ‘until we meet again my darling”
Our family would like to extend our deepest thanks and appreciation to Dr. Emily Dube. Never too busy and always available, she came to our home and cared for Jim with the utmost respect and professionalism. She went above and beyond. Our gratitude is immeasurable.
We will honour Jim with a Celebration of Life which will be held at a warmer date.
Jim is one of the most amazing men I know. The biggest heart, the gentlest soul, and a voice that can melt any woman’s heart. I will miss his welcomes when I go for a visit. He always made me feel at home when I stopped by. My heart breaks for you Deb, and all of the family. Know that you are always in my thoughts and our love for Jim is neverending.

It is with a heavy heart that I heard of Jim’s passing. My deepest sympathy and condolences to you and your family and to my grandsons, Jason and Russell.
I was grateful for your drop in visit some years back where I was able to meet with you Debby. It was good to see Jim after many long years.

We can’t believe he is gone. What a lovely special man he was with that amazing voice, our whole family was in love with him. We first met him through our son Stefan’s friendship with Jason, Jim’s oldest son. Our deepest sympathy and condolences go out to Jim’s wife Debby and all his family. Jim’s presence will be deeply missed by so many.
From all the Clulow’s,

This was a hard one, Jim’s passing. He was such a presence in any group at Sudbury Hydro and yet one of the quietest. He was very much respected by old and young and would always make time to listen and offer a suggestion, if requested. His voice was totally amazing and so calming. He will be missed but never forgotten. He is one of those people you meet in life that leave a lasting impression. RIP Jim.

We were so saddened to hear of Jim’s passing and our deepest thoughts and condolences to you Debby, your family, and to our nephews, Jason and Russell. My earlier memory of Jim goes back to our teenage years and beyond. Jim’s presence in a room was always larger than life even though he was the quiet unassuming one in the group. Rest In Peace
