CAHOON
JIMMY D. CAHOON passed away peacefully in the Cardston, Alberta Hospital surrounded by family and his loving wife on Wednesday, March 14th, 2018 at the age of 87.

Jim attended University in Logan, Utah as well as in Provo, Utah at BYU. Jim enjoyed fishing, hunting, and hiking in the outdoors. He worked with his brothers at Cahoon Lumber and later began the ranch life working with cattle and all livestock but he especially loved riding horses. Some of his cherished memories were working at the Birdseye Ranch and riding into the Belly River lakes. He was especially good at woodworking and he worked at many of the LDS chapels in Southern Alberta but what held a great importance in his life was being able to do woodwork in the Cardston, Alberta Temple during the renovation in the 1990s. He was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served a full time mission in Samoa, served as a Scout Master, Bishopric Counselor, High Councilor, and taught Temple Preparation for many years, and was able to serve as a Temple Officiator. Anything to do with the Temple was very special to his heart.
