James Ryan

June 18, 1949 — May 12, 2023

Gravenhurst

Sadly, at Muskoka Shores Care Home in Gravenhurst on May 12th, 2023, we lost James.

Loving, caring father to Caireen and grandfather to Rowan; cherished brother to Mary Louise (Nick Rogoza), and baby Susan (deceased); dear uncle to Michelle (Ryan) and Kevin and great uncle to Lilli; he will also be sadly missed by beloved cousins.

James preferred the quiet of living in the woods to living in town, but had lively conversations with people wherever he went. He enjoyed music, fixing boats, and cooking. He took a huge interest in family history, and preserved many stories and photographs. He looked forward to being with family and always enjoyed the Christmas party. He was generous, thoughtful, and creative, with a keen eye for detail. However, he also preferred a simple life.

Be at peace. God Bless.

The family welcomes donations to the Canadian Lung Association and to the Alzheimer Society of Canada
