Jim on his graduation day

Yesterday the sun shone, it was Easter Saturday and I played with my twin grandsons in my daughter’s garden. All was well with the world. When night fell the telephone rang and I heard the news that my brother Jim had been found dead at home.

It’s raining today the randrops are running down the window like the tears I cannot shed for my lovely brother. he was a handsome, clever, straight (some might say blunt) person who always told it as it was. He could be hard to reach, his defence mechanism.

A proud father, hard worker and great brother. We all loved him and can’t begin to know how we will miss him.

Rest in peace now Jim.
