When it was time for a break, the father grilled abalone on a charcoal brazier "Shichirin." thus enjoying an extravagant and exciting time with their sons. In this way, the boys of Tomari became fishermen. They became fathers in due time and as time passes, the impressive morning sun continues rising from the sea in Tomari, unchanged since ancient times.

In the above is due time ok? Or it is better to change as follows?
In this way, the boys of Tomari became fisherment and fathers. As time passes, the impressive morning sun continues rising from the sea in Tomari, unchanged since ancient times.

Thank you for your help!
