Our Father ‘our hero’ ❤️ James Harris passed away peacefully on 14th January 2020 after bravely enduring 18 months of ill health.

He was a man in every sense of the word strong, provider, protector, upright honest noble with unwavering faith family focused,seasoned always with a smile joke or a chuckle.
What a man!!

He always would sing this song by Jim Reeves which reflects the man he was.

Each day I'll do a golden deed by helping those who are in need
My life on earth is but a span and so I'll do the best I can
Life's evening sun is sinking low a few more days and I must go
To meet the deeds that I have done where there will be no setting sun…

🙏🏿 Rest in Peace Dad❤️

Jim Harris was a kind, intelligent, confident man. There was little that he would not go head to head with you on a conversation. He was skilled too in many ways. A brilliant gardener and a great handyman around the home. When I had my first washing machine he came and plumbed it in for me. I am forever grateful for having this man in my life. His smile will be forever imprinted on my heart.
As for my mum G. RHULE she is heartbroken to have lost one of her very dearest friends and confident. Rest in eternal peace. The gardens in Heaven have now upped their standard since you arrived. Enjoy your eternal peace.
Love from Mrs G. Rhule, Jacqueline and Nira and family xxxxx
