Jim was predeceased by both his parents, Maybelle and Frederick Piper.
Jimmy was born in Sherbrooke, Quebec but lived in many communities throughout the townships before settling in Waterville after meeting his life-mate, Betty Ann (nee Sylvester). Jimmy and Betty Ann were married in North Hatley in June 1966 and went on to have two children; Keith (1968) and Krystal (1969).
Jimmy and Betty Ann met at Ives Hill in 1960 while he was playing music with Sam Hopper’s band. Later, Jimmy formed a band with Albert Nutbrown before eventually starting ‘Jimmy Piper & the Country Road Runners’. Jimmy devoted his time to his family, his music, and the community as a scout master, ball coach, and friend to many, until the family moved to BC in 1972. While living in BC, Jimmy and Betty Ann “adopted” three more children (Gabriela, Sabina, and Andrew). Jim touched many lives with his teasing ways, his huge heart, and his open arms. He has left behind many people who love him, including his wife of 51 years, Betty, his older sister Margaret, his children, Keith (Krystyna), Krystal (Chad), Gaby (Mike), Sabina (Doug), and Andrew (Janelle), his grandchildren, Kaz (Megan), Xzavyyr, Trillium, Topaz, Amethyst, Onyx, Luca, Karla, Jacquie, John, Danny, Chanice, Jacob, his great-grandchildren Mikayla, Aurora, Violet, brothers in law, sisters in law, numerous nieces and nephews and countless others that have come into Jim’s life that he considered family.
A memorial was held November 5th at the Thornhill Volunteer Fire Department where Jim was a founding member, chief (1976-1984), and honourary member until his passing.
In lieu of flowers, the family requested donations be made to the TFVD for the purchase of pet oxygen masks. To date the family has gratefully received enough to purchase 9 masks.
