It is with heavy hearts the family of James ‘Jim” Lalor announce his passing on Tuesday, July 25, 2023 at the age of 79 years. Jim was born on July 21, 1944 to Ruth and Bill Lalor, and raised on the family farm east of Innisfail. He fulfilled his childhood dream of travelling when he got his dream job, with Western Geophysical, which sent him halfway around the world. In 1975, he married his wife, Sandra and raised two beautiful girls on his own farm east of Innisfail. He began working at Joffre, until his health forced his retirement. He fought many health battles over the years starting with Kidney Nephritis, at the age of fourteen years, Multiple Sclerosis and IgG4. Like everything else in his life, he handled it all with courage, determination, grace and humor. Jim will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Sandra, his daughter, Kim Lalor and her children, Ty and Taya and his daughter, Nicole (Jeff) and their children, Chase and Addison, as well as his sister, Shirley Bilton.
