To Chris and Family,
Heartfelt condolences on the passing of cousin Jim. I remember Jim at all the Parker get togethers.
In 1976, after one of those get togethers, Jim invited me to go to the Ex for the first time. He then drove me down to the farm in his new 280 ZX which was a lot of fun for a teenager.
I know his loss will leave a large hole but his many memories and easy going style will always be with us.
Sincerely,
Trevor Aitkens and family
Dear Chris, just hearing about Jim’s passing today.
What a fun man, so many special memories, playing badminton at the Grange and lots of other place. Always competing to the fullest, and I’m sure he was still doing that to the end.
Sending our deepest condolences to the whole family and may his memories be a blessing now and in the future.
