Thank you for your comradeship especially whilst playing Corps Rugby over many season. Your selfless commitment, talent and most of all smile and humour allowed us as a team to finally win the Merit League 2.
Rest in Peace Jim as it’s been an absolute pleasure to serve and play alongside you. MBS

Jim was a true gentleman who always looked to help others. We never served together but I served with people who had worked alongside him and without exception everyone both liked and respected him, a rare thing indeed.

As a friend, Jim was generous, warm and giving. Always offering help and support, a superb host and an all round great guy. Sending love, warmth and sincere condolences to Jeanett and your girls buddy.

Sleep easy my friend, you’ve earned your rest. Until we meet again.
