Story

James Robert Finn
Jim was born and raised in Milton and dedicated his life to serving the community he loved. He spent 47 years with Milton Fire & Rescue Services, responding to over 6,000 calls and retiring with honour in the role of District Chief. He also worked for 44 years in the Town of Milton’s Operations Department, demonstrating the same commitment and dedication.

A devoted family man, Jim was married to his beloved wife Judith for 50 years. He cherished every moment with her, their children, grandchildren, and close friends, taking great pride in their many achievements.

Jim’s warm smile, generous heart, and love for others could brighten any room. He was always willing to lend a hand or offer a listening ear, never seeking anything in return. Jim was a true giver, guided by compassion, humility, and an unwavering sense of service.
