RIP Jim Anderson.

Uncle Jim [as he was known to most] had more than an interesting life, from fisher person to business person to photographer to video ographer to musician to great supporter of the Moravian church.

When Fran was with Okalakatiget Society Jim would call frequently at nights and weekends with encouragement, and when the church services were not on air complaints as to why not.

In later years he would call just to chat, as he was feeling lonely at times.

On the more pleasant front; Carter and his mom coming in for 5 days this afternoon.

We are saddened by the news of Uncle Jim's passing but happy for his long and full life and happy that we were fortunate enough to get to know him quite well on our many visits to Makkovik. He was always first down to the wharf to greet us and we shared many meals together aboard WANDERBIRD. We will surely miss seeing that ol'red bike coming down the wharf with Uncle jim perched on top waiving and smiling. Our sincere condolences to his family.
