This is the home page of Jim and Pam Grill. We are
senior citizens (at least Jim is!) living in the Keweenaw.
Pam retired from her position as the Laboratory Director
at Keweenaw Memorial Medical Center.
Jim is semi-retired and is the helpful man at the Ace
Hardware store in Calumet, MI.

We are delighted to show you one of the lights of our lives, our
granddaughter, Alayna, (a.k.a. the little bear) on
Grandma's Page 'O the Bear
and the newest little light in our lives, our grandson, Justin,
born on November 17, 2001
We have two boys: the dog Sam and the cat, Joey. Sam
has been with us for over 4 years now. He's a real schnicklefritz and he loves
his "brother", Joey.
Joe has taught him a few things, too, like watch out for claws!
This
is what Joey thinks he looks like!
Meet Pam's "real boys": Brian,
Brendon and Brad.
They are some real birds and the best sons a Mom could want!
Here are the pages of two very special ladies: Brenny's wife, Missy
and Brian's wife, Pam
~Jim's Boats~
The Spartan, The Badger, and the City of Midland

From 1951 to 1966, Jim worked on the Lake Michigan Car Ferries, except
for '54 and '55 when he was in the military. From 1951 to '56, he worked
on the SS Madison as an Assistant Purser/Purser. From 1956 to 1966, he
worked on the SS Spartan, first as a Night Plankman, then as a Dining Room
Waiter and Head Waiter. He also spent two summers working on the SS City
of Midland in the dining room. He never worked on the Badger, but she is a
sister ship to the Spartan. They were named in honor of UW and MSU. Jim
has many fond memories of his years on the lakes and is an avid shipping
fan to this day. After leaving the boats, Jim worked for twenty-two years
for Means Services, Inc., now ARAMARK,
the uniform and linen rental company, working as a Branch Manager/District
Manager and Service Manager. He covered the Upper Peninsula of Michigan
and North Eastern Wisconsin.
Jim has a special talent for beautiful photography. See if you

All of the photos are thumbnail size, so they won't take too long to
