Amherst Island Radio Fundraiser 2013


I am Garry Filson's wife and Garry was a good friend of Jim's since the late 1970's & he and Jim travelled all over the U.S. racing one of Jim's prize horses "Saturn Lobell".  I am a volunteer host on CJAI 92.1 Amherst Island community radio, and last year Jim insisted that he would donate a breeding from his horse "Big Jim" to our radio station as an aucton item.  Jim even came to the Island  for me to interview him  live and talk about the racing industry & his horse "Big Jim" .  What a wonderful thing for him to do for us & it raised an extra $3,000 for our station.  Jim insisted that he wanted to do it again this year but we knew he was just too sick.

Thank you Jim for paying it forward to so many and you will be missed dear friend.
