Obituary For James Michael Whalen

Jim is finally at peace after enduring so much, surrounded by the love of those who meant the world to him, on Monday, May 26, 2025 at Ross Memorial Hospital in Lindsay.

At the age of 74, Jim was the beloved husband of Wendy (Corley) for over 40 years. Loving dad of Carrie (Stephen Wooldridge).

Pa held a special bond with his precious granddaughter, Cierra Hallett (Clint Harford), and his adored grandson, Seth Hallett, both of whom brought him immense joy and he was endlessly proud of. Bonus great grandpa to Emmett and Audrey, with a special excitement for the newest great-grandchild soon to arrive.

‘You will be our sunshine forever, Pa’

He will be deeply missed by the entire Corley family: Stephen (Jane), Judy (Don), Marlene, Margie (BK), and Mary Ellen, as well as many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. He is survived by Joanne, Mike (Sylvia), Ray, Julia, Krista and many cousins. Predeceased by Bob and Doug.

In keeping with his wishes, cremation has taken place. Jim will be laid to rest privately at Riverside Cemetery in Lindsay, surrounded by those who loved him most.

A special thank you to his dear lifelong friend Ray McGill, the amazing Nurses and Doctors at the Ross Memorial Hospital, Paramed Homecare, Julie and the Kawartha Lakes Paramedics, as well as Kim, Joanna and staff at Kawartha Lakes Pharmasave.

Heartfelt appreciation to Don Finlayson, Lynn, Bentley and staff at Lakeland Funeral Home and Mandie Oram for providing guidance and support during this difficult time.
