Serving until 1977, he flew 34 different aircraft, including Sabres, Twin Otters, and Yukons, when he "retired" to fly executive aircraft for Syncrude for 12 years. When he finally retired in 1989, he settled in Carrying Place, Ont and volunteered with the RCAF Museum in Trenton, Ont. Frank claimed he never worked a day in his life, he enjoyed flying so much.
He had a quirky sense of humour, a love of language, and enjoyed a practical joke.

James “Jim” Moen
November 11, 1935 – January 19, 2010
With heartfelt love and sorrow, we regret to announce the passing of our loving husband, dad and grandfather after a long courageous battle with cancer.
Jim was born November 11, 1935 in Chaplin, Saskatchewan. He married Audrey in 1955, making their first home in Prince George, BC. A love of interior weather prompted a move to Kamloops in 1974. A heavy duty mechanic by trade, he retired from Weyerhaeuser in 1998.

He will be remembered for his strong spirit, his devotion to family, and the joy he felt having his grandchildren grow up around him.
Left to cherish his memory are his devoted and loving wife of 54 years Audrey, their children Wendy (Roy) Connell, Daryl (Lorene) Moen, Terry (Milaine) Moen, and the grandchildren he was so proud of Sheri, Ryan, Brett, AJ, and Karyn. He will be sadly missed by his siblings Vida Lalonde and Cleona Jefcoat, his large extended family and many friends.
Our heartfelt thanks to all the staff and volunteers at Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice Home who took care of Dad and provided compassion and love to our family. Also a special thank you to Dr. John Reid.
