Jim Hassan

Dear Janis & family, Please accept our most sincere condolences on Jim's passing. I'm sorry to have missed the memorial & only got word the other day from Dad (Basil). I had run into Jim a few times just outside our respective offices, over the past few years, and always got a friendly hello & warm smile when he recognized the 'Bannon' face. Though I didn't know him well, he's the only 'cousin-in-law' I'd remember, because of his wonderful smile & kind & gentle manner. We are so sorry for your loss. No doubt Jim & Aunt Hannah are keeping watch over you and your family. Our prayers are with you at this difficult time. Sheila & Shawn

Janeen and family So sorry to hear of your father's passing. My heartfelt condolences to you and all your family members. Having lost my mother recently I can understand the deep pain that you are experiencing.

Dear Aunty Janis, Jimeelie, Jennifer, Janeen and Alec. I am so sorry to hear about Uncle Jimmy. Myself, Emma and Sophie have so many fond memories of time spent with him. For myself, I will always remember his wonderful, generous spirit and his ready smile. He always could charm those around him and his love of life and family was what set him apart. Aunty Janis, my heart goes out to you all of you now. Wish I could be there, but I send my love and sympathy to all of you. May God be with you and hold you all in the palm of God's hand. Much love, Sherri, Emma and Sophie, xxxxxxx

I wanted to acknowledge the passing of Jim Hassan and send my condolences to your family. Jim, was the Accountant for my Aunt Jean Bromley and I had the pleasure of speaking with him during her illness and her passing May 2009. He always kept in touch with her, sent her beautiful fruit baskets or went out on an occassional lunch to show his customer appreciation and friendship. Please accept my sincere sympathy during this difficult time Kathy Fleming

Dear Janis and Family, We are so sadned to hear Jimmy has passed. He will always hold a special spot in our hearts. We are thinking about you all in this diffuctult time. We are so blessed to have had Jimmy in our lives, although for a short time, we will cherish those memories forever. He will truly be missed by so many. Lots of love, Nicole, Carm and Cybella

Jim was a great colleague and a wonderful, loyal friend. He was a very generous person who would invite my wife (Cathy) and I to dinner at Michael's on the Thames with Janis (Cherries Jubilee!) and would be lightning quick to pick up the tab (often slipping Jack DeCarlo his credit card in advance so we couldn't pay). At our semi-monthly card game with friends he would always offer to pick me up and drop me off so I could "enjoy myself" without worry. When our kids were very young the doorbell would ring and they would race out to give a beaming "Uncle Jimmy" a hug and kiss. Yesterday when I told my youngest daughter, now 11 years old, that I was sad my friend Jim had passed she said with tears welling in her eyes, "wasn't he your happy friend that always gave us a "mookie" (our word for "kiss") when he came over here? He was so nice!" Jim was a devoted family man who only said wonderful things to me about his beloved wife Janis, and who spoke so proudly about his children. He would often talk with admiration about his father and how he taught him important lessons that both his faith and his life should focus on tolerance and acceptance, and that you should always do right by people. Win or lose (and there's always lots of both in the investment business!) he always had the best interests of his clients at heart and would do whatever he could to help others prosper. Jim's outlook on life was always one of optimism, positivity, and love. While I will never hear this from him again, I will forever have the echo of his words in my soul when he said to me many times, and in many variations, "Dave, all we can do is try our best to help other people and to have fun doing it" Blessings to you Jimeel, as you were a blessing to those who knew you.

Alec and Jennifer, we are so sorry to hear your dad has passed away. We hadn't heard he was sick. How terrible this is for you. We remember when our Dad (Father-in-Law) was sick, how terrified we were that we'd lose him. Our deepest sympathies and prayers are with you. Love, Scott and Renée

Alec and Family, Heartfelt condolences on your loss. Hold tight to memories for comfort, during this time of sadness. Peace, prayers and blessings are wished for you and your family. Sincerely, Milena, Mike, Mandi and Matthew

Mrs. Hassan - I am very sorry to hear about Mr. Hassan's passing. Miriam and I have a lot of fun memories from when we were younger of being at your home. Please accept my condolences. David Bhamjee

"His life was gentle; and the elements so mixed in him, that Nature might stand up and say to all the world: THIS WAS A MAN!" 'William Shakespeare' You will be sorely missed dear friend. Janis, you and the famiy have our heart-felt sympathy. With deep affection, Alain, Donna and Family

Aunt Janice, Jimeelie, Jennifer, Janeen, and Alec, It has been an honor and a gift to have been part of your family all these years. My heart breaks for your loss as I feel it too. Uncle Jim, as he will always be to me, was an exceptionally kind and loving man who always made me feel better just being around him. Sam and Cole have loved every minute they spent in your home, and are very sad for this passing. I wish I could be there today, however, I will come very soon and be with you all again. Sending all of my love to you, Heather xoxoxoxo

Janis, Jameelie, Jennifer, Janeen, Alec, Sydney and Sophie- our heart felt condolences on your great loss. Jim was a frind when you needed a frind, an advocate when you needed a voice on your behalf, and a brother even when you are not related by blood. family was everything to him. The market and his clients were his passion. I will miss marty (Jameel) very much. He will allways be in our heart and you and the kids will be allways in our thoughts and prayers.

Janis and family; I am so sorry to read of Jim's passing. He was a remarkable man and I'm happy I had the honour of knowing him. I know he'll be missed by family and all who knew him. My greatest sympathy to you Janis and the family but know you will have many happy memories to sustain you.

Dear Aunt Janis, Jimeelie, Jennifer, Janine and Alec, It is with incredibly heavy hearts that we send this message of love and support to all of you. Uncle Jim has always been a treasure, first to mom and dad, Heather, Sherri and I and then with my own family. We feel so blessed to have been even a small part of your family...Uncle Jim has always represented what is good and kind and loving...and your family has always represented what I would like to model in my own family. We are so incredibly grateful that we were able to come as a family to spend some time with you last spring...those are cherished memories we will carry always. We are sending you much love and many prayers...strength will come from the love and support you give to one another. Despite our distance please don't hesitate to call upon us for anything. Love, Oscar, Cindy, Miguel and Olivia

Janis,, Jimeelie, Jennifer, Janene and Alec. It has been a great pleasure to have worked with Jim for so many years. He was always happy and cheerful and could put a smile on everyones face even if you were down. He was a very generous and caring man and never said a bad word about anyone. Jim was a big part of my life for so many years and I will miss him deeply especially when he got so excited when "gold" would go up. I would laugh at him as he did his little dance as he smiled. I know that you all have your favorite memories as well and they will keep us going as time passes. He will be in our hearts forever. My deepest sympathies go out to all of you. You are all in my prayers. Debby

Janis and family, we were very sorry to hear that Jim had passed away. We are currently in Florida and received an email with the news. Jim was a great person, very kind, generous and funny. We always enjoyed the times we had spent with him. He will be greatly missed. We will be in touch when we are back in Canada. Our condolences. Kathy, Tony, Tim and Susan.
