Obituary for R. James "Jim" Margueratt
MARGUERATT, Robert James “Jim”
(17 October 1943 – 3 February 2019)
Robert James “Jim” Margueratt passed away suddenly on Sunday, February 3, 2019, in his 76th year. He was pre-deceased by his parents Allan and Bernice, and is survived by his brother and best friend, Edward. He will be missed by his sister-in-law Sandra, her mother Norma, his two nieces, Denise and Jeanette (Wade) and very special grand nieces Ava and Paige. He loved his family, 10 pin bowling and was a Ticat season ticket holder for almost 40 years. Jim went to work for Hoover Canada on a part-time basis and retired almost 40 years later. He was a member of the Warplane Heritage Museum and was hoping to get his flight in the Lancaster bomber this year. Jim was Publicity Director for the Hamilton and District Ten Pin Association for many years, and was a proud member of the Association’s Hall of Fame. He knew almost everything there was to know about the history of 10 pin bowling in Hamilton. Often referred to as ‘Mr. Bowling’ in the Hamilton area, he was the contributor in the Hamilton Spectator’s “On the Lanes” Amateur Scene feature. As per his wishes, private cremation has taken place. A visitation will be held at SMITH’S FUNERAL HOME, 1167 Guelph Line (one stoplight north of QEW), BURLINGTON, 905-632-3333, on Tuesday, February 12, 2019 from 3-5pm and 7-9pm. A Service of Remembrance will be held at Fifty United Church (1455 Highway 8, Winona, ON), on Wednesday, February 13, 2019 at 11:00am. Interment at Fifty Cemetery (Winona Fifty), followed by a Reception in the Church Hall. As an expression of sympathy, donations in memory of Jim to the Heart & Stroke Foundation, or to the charity of your choice would be appreciated.
