May Jim’s soul rest in peace. I loved to meet Jim and Frank when in for their weekly shopping trip. He was a true gentleman and when I discovered they loved homemade mince pies it became my Christmas present to them for the remainder of my time in Westport. A long life well lived and time now for rest. My condolences to all Jim’s family, neighbours and friends at this sad time.
