So sorry to hear of Mr Cannon’s Passing. A lot of great memories fixing up his old camper. He would slide Scott and I our steaks for cheap from the butcher counter at Burrell’s for our camping trips
Swimming in the cannon pool was always a great time.
Mr Cannon always amazed us with his energy working at the cemetery, not many men can do that work. Scott was a close second though.
He was a big man in Caledon East everyone who had the pleasure of knowing him will miss him.
Rest in peace Mr. Cannon

Condolences to Thelma & family.
Between Burrell’s & Fire Dept many great memories of Jim
Rest in Peace

Jim was so much more than an amazing brother-in-law, he was a man I truly respected, admired and looked up to. I will miss him terribly but memories of him will always remain in my heart. My condolences to Thelma, Lynda, Scott, Jeff and their families.

Love Connie Foote (Scott)

Dear Dan, Lynda and the entire Cannon Family

Thelma & Family,
May you find strength in the love of family and in the virtual hugs from friends during this difficult time.
So many stories from the Fire Department & Mom ordering groceries via phone & Dad picking them up before heading home from the garage. Conversations at the cemetery.
Jim was a great friend to Dad. Thanks for the memories. RIP Jim.
Sincerely,

So sorry to hear of the loss of your beloved husband, father and grandfather. Thinking of you at this difficult time.

Dear Thelma, Lynda, Scott & Jeff: Our condolences on the passing of your Dad. So many memories … of seeing him at the back of the store (the butcher’s apron scared me as a little kid!), as a neighbour whose house we could see from our kitchen table, a fellow fire-fighter and friend of Dad and a reassuring presence at the Caledon East Cemetery on those sad occasions when we needed him. I’d like to thank him for his lifetime commitment to making things better in Caledon East. We won’t see too many more like him. With sympathy, Diane & Anne Allengame

I have very pleasant memories of Jim during his tenure as superintendent at Laurel Hill Cemetery. My daily walks, there, were always brighter after having a chat with Jim. We discussed everything from the weather to trips and family. Jim was never at a loss for words or a friendly greeting. Our condolences to the family. Rest in Peace, Jim.

Jim was a man of honour and commitment to his family and to his community. His smiling presence was a welcome mainstay for me for the 20 years I lived just north of Caledon East. Jim, Bob, and Madeline Norrie were such a team in their grocery store, and there were very few nights that I didnt stop in on my way home from work at the Town of Caledon office. My deepest condolences to his family and the entire community at this loss. He was a gem!

Dear Thelma, Lynda, Scott & Jeff:

We are sorry for your loss. We know that you will receive comfort in a lifetime of wonderful memories.

Jim Cannon, with a laugh that was contagious a twinkle in his eye and a slap of a knee…that’s what I remember.

I have very fond memories of Jim at the store working in the back when my Mom worked at Burrell’s. And at the fire department too where I like my Dad work along side Jim and others for many years.

On behalf of my Dad and me, well will miss our Chief.

He was a very kind man. I’ll never forget the day mom (Jill McNichol) and I went to the cemetery to visit my mom’s mom’s grave and also to discuss whether or not my mom wanted to be laid there when the time came. As we were walking around the grounds, it became difficult for my mom to walk and as it was a long way back to my car, Jim offered up his big white truck for us to get in and drive back to my car. My mom couldn’t get up into the truck easily (being so tiny), so Jim put his hand on her backside and boosted her into the truck. We had a good laugh over that! Then Jim handed me the keys! I thought he would drive but he said I could take it. So there we were, mom and I, driving through the cemetery in the biggest truck I’d ever driven in my life! It is a memory I will cherish. Rest in peace Jim. My condolences to the Cannon family.

Our condolences to the Cannon family.

Lynda, Dan and family,
I am sorry to hear of the passing of your Dad. Memories will keep him close forever.
With Love,

I am so sorry to hear the passing of Jim on Sunday. My condolences to you and all your family. Jim was a super nice man as illustrated by all the condolences. He and Neil were such good friends when they were younger. You will miss him.
Unfortunately I won’t be able to visit due to COVID but am thinking of you.

So sorry to hear of your loss… Jim was a great neighbour. I think of him often when I’m out shovelling my driveway. That’s when I heard many interesting stories.

Dear Thelma and family, My deepest sympathies on the passing of Jim. He was a great friend to me after my own dad passed and I would see Jim up at the cemetery. I’d go there sad but by the time Jim and I had a chat, my heart was patched up and I would leave with a smile. God Bless You Jim and your Family. Deanna Pacheco

Our sincere condolences to your family on Jim”s passing.Jim was the type of man that makes small towns special.He carried on the strong Cannon family tradition of service to their community.One special memory I have dates back to the sixties;we were playing the despised bolton team for the league championship and we were in sudden death in the final game. The bolton player got a breakway and Jim wearing his ever present toque stopped him.We went on to win the championship>I think half of Caledon East were in the stands that night!

We read a very nicely written obituary of Jim’s contributions to Caledon and the fond memories that were created through community involvement. When you look back on that legacy, we hope it brings a smile and renewed strength to get through these rough times.

Jo-Ann Whitten

To my dear sister Thelma and my niece Lynda, and nephews Scott and Jeff. I loved Jim very much. He made my childhood fun and filled with laughter. He came off as the innocent one but could be the leader when it came to playing practical jokes on people. He was always ready to give me big hugs. I could not have had a better brother in-law if I had hand picked him myself. Rest in peace Jim and I will see you again some day.

Love Wendy Ash ( Scott)

Lynda, Dan & Jeff and Thelma and Family
