Carmel, Fruitful Vine, Splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my Mother. Oh Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and earth I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succor me in my necessity (make request). There are none that can withstand your power. Oh Mary conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee (three times). Holy Mary I place this cause in your hands (three times). Say this prayer for 3 consecutive days. You must publish it and it will be granted to you. B.L. ATWOOD, James George ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ The heavens gained a gentle and kind soul on April 30, 2021. James George Atwood, born May 14, 1954, passed away after a brief but courageous battle with cancer. His strength, pride, and determination unwavered until the end. Deeply loved and sorely missed by his daughters Jillian and Kimberly, son-in-law Emilio, grand- children Sam, Elliott, Liam, and Remy. Dearly missed by sisters Noreen and Elaine, brother Leonard and cousin Brian. He now rests in peace, and is reunited with his loving parents, Jim and Florence Atwood, and best friend Dave Prestidge.

He leaves behind his broken-hearted daughters Meghan (George) and Kristy (Sean), his loving partner Nancy Hall and her family, his treasured grandchildren Alex, Taylor, Adam and Kasey, his former wife Patty, his beloved brother Willy and many nieces and nephews. Dad spent 40 years with Canadian Tire and built two successful stores in Mississauga. His staff, friends and colleagues will remember him as generous, kind and thoughtful. From a young age, Dad loved the game of hockey which led him to found the first hockey school in Canada with his friends Billy Harris and Dave Keon. Dad truly cherished the lifelong friendships he made everywhere he went. A world traveler, golfer, and collector of vintage cars, Dad continued to learn (with the exception of technology), loved live theatre, music and singing. But most important of all, Dad adored his family, and his daughters were the apple of his eye. Family weddings, funerals, and holiday celebrations (which always included cabbage rolls) will never be the same. We would like to acknowledge all of the comfort and support his caregivers provided, especially over the last few years. Due to current restrictions, no service will be held at this time. As Dad would have wanted, a party will be held in his honour at a later date. Watch for details at oakviewfuneral.ca, where we also encourage you to share your special stories and condolences. His stories will live on forever...
