James Leonard Munro

Notes:

James Leonard Munro was born to Dan and Jean Munro on March 16th, 1927, on the family farm near Drake, Saskatchewan. James was the second youngest child of their family of 9 children. The family moved to Nipawin, Saskatchewan when James was still very young, and landed at the new Munro farm a few miles east of Nipawin. In the early years it was tough living on the farm, and Dan and Jean taught their children how to work, live, and love our Heavenly Father.
As a young man, James had many different jobs off the farm, and one spring after returning home from working in a steel foundry in Ontario, Gladys Nadiger was at the farm visiting his sisters. He told Gladys, they were going to be ?chums? that summer. It turned out they were married that year on November 3rd, 1948. Jim and Gladys had three children, Harold, Gwen, and Brian. They lived on the farm East of Nipawin until the kids started school, then they would move into town for winter, and back out to the farm for the summer.
Jim farmed with his son Harry until Harry?s sudden passing in 2013, and then farmed with his grandson, Vince up until the fall of 2023. His livelihood and passion was farming. He loved to be in the action and was always up for an adventure.
He made his choice to serve God as a young man and stayed true to that calling until the end of his life. He was at peace with his choice, and his words of encouragement and positive outlook were a light to all those who knew him.
Jim and Gladys? family has grown to include 11 grandchildren and 23 great grandchildren. Jim loved and showed interest in his family and had a special relationship with each one. He would visit, play, tease, and joke, or ?tune you in,? if needed. Everyone who knew him has fond memories of our dad, grandpa, and friend.

James married Gladys Ethel Nadiger on 3 Nov 1948. Gladys was born on 7 Jan 1926 in Nokomis, Saskatchewan, Canada; died on 23 Mar 2019 in Nipawin, Saskatchewan, Canada; was buried in Mabel Hill Cemetery, Nipawin, Rural Municipality of Nipawin, Saskatchewan, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
