One of Ayr's well-known residents, James H. Grimmer, passed away in South Waterloo Memorial Hospital this (Thursday) morning, where he had been confined following a recent heart attack. The late Mr. Grimmer was born near New Hamburg and came to Ayr 39 years ago, where he operated a successful plumbing and tinsmithing business until his retirement in 1959. He was a popular figure in social and sporting circles, being associated with Ayr Bowling and Curling Clubs, as well as other organizations. He was a member of Knox United Church. Surviving besides his wife, the former Rena Twiss of Seaforth, are two daughters, Mrs. Robert Stager (Ruth) of Grand Rapids, Michigan and Mrs. William B.
