Dad - there hasn't been a moment that I have stopped thinking about you and miss you so much. You were my father and mother and my best friend. How I will miss your jokes and laughter, our talks on the phone and coffee every Wednesday. You are now at peace. Fly high dad. Enjoy the catch up with those who have gone before. I love you.

James was an icon who fully supported The Victoria League and all its objectives. We valued his contribution including being 'SANTA' at the appropriate time, his sense of humour/happy nature will be sadly missed. Thinking of all his family at this time and sorry to be out of town for his farewell. Kind Regards, John& Gaynor Thacker.
