Condolence: My name is James Buffett the grandson of James Buffett. Ironic right? I would love to heard from people who served with my grandfather. If anybody has any stories or photos of my grandfather I would love to hear them. Please reach out to me at jm436749@dal.ca. Thank you.

Condolence: Jimmy was a Sergeant @ CABC the summer of 1977, and was my JM on serial #7712. He gave me my "good to go" in the first week of J-stage Airborne qual...his influence kept me alive when I jumped with IDF Para, and later, a year I spent in the jungle in Central America. A million thanks, Jimmy...AIRBORNE!

Condolence: I still remember Jimmy dispatching me as a JM in the Airborne Regiment and seeing him in the SVC CDO CQ stores,he always had a warm smile,what a great guy.RIP Jimmy.

Condolence: First met Jimmy in Cornwallis when he was there for his daughters graduation. I was posted to Svc Cdo a month later. He was our CQ and was always willing to help us new troopers coming to the Regiment. Worked for Jimmy many times during my time in the Regiment. He was a great man. RIP Jimmy Fair Winds and Soft Landings.

Condolence: I knew Jim in Germany and also Edmonton. My sincere condolences to you, the family on his passing. Pro Patria/Ex coelis. John Pearman

Condolence: I first met Jimmy when I was a private in Petawawa. He scared the daylights out of me. It did not help that Karin and I did our TQ3s together. He was an inspiration to young soldiers and paratroopers. My deepest condolences to the whole family. He is in peace. Rest well jumper

Condolence: It is with heavy hearts that we have learned the passing of Jimmy, our Airborne Brother. Please accept our deepest condolences.

Condolence: Jim was influential in my military career, firstly in my learning to be a young officer in 2RCR Germany, and secondly in my training as a paratrooper in the Airborne Regiment. Upon my return to the Airborne Regiment in 1987 as Commander, I was very disappointed to find that Jim had just left. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss along with my huge respect for this fine soldier.

Condolence: I remember Jim from earlier days in 4 Platoon, B Company, 2 RCR, Ft. York, Germany 65-68...I was a young officer and Jim was one of the guys who helped me learn my job. He was a good man, with a ready smile and definitely knew his way around the bush. Jim had a great sense of humour, was kind and an all-round 'good guy'... later on we also served together in the Canadian Airborne Regiment. Great ambassador for Newfoundland he was....! Thanks for all the help you gave to me Jim! Condolences to the family. RIP Bob Mahar Ft Benning, Georgia PRO PATRIA / AIRBORNE
