James Mumford

Oct. 16th, 2023 was a day that turned the world upside down for our family. Pops/dad/grampa/great grampa-to-be to our new Mumford addition, enjoyed his daily walk and returned home to his chair to enjoy the rest of the day, starting with his afternoon nap. That's when the decision was made by a higher power that he would enjoy the peacefulness from now on. James Wallace Wayne Mumford passed away peacefully on his terms, as it should be. He has left here to continue to love and continue his memories, his loving wife of almost 61 years, Oct. 27th, the love of his life for 71, Lorraine Mumford (nee Langford), daughter Joanne (Jodi) Hatch & husband Robert (Rob), son Douglas (Doug) Mumford & wife Karen, grandchildren James (Jimmy) Mumford & Deanna Ryckman & Brody Hatch & Ben Perlman, Sara Pickford & Justin, Brett Hatch & Madi Williamson, Alden Mumford & Jessi, Kelsey Mumford, Willem Meredith & Spencer Meredith, his many in-laws, nieces, nephews, and friends near and far. Jim was the last remaining of 9 siblings, Ed, Ron, Earl, Ross, Dorothy (Dot), Cecil, Dale, & Doug, all raised on Mumford Road in Mumford Station/Harcourt, Ontario.
