Posted: Mon Jan 19, 2009 17:59 Post subject: Tragic news ... James Smith - more x 4 |
|
|
It is with a heavy heart that I have some sad news to pass on today ...
I have been reliably informed that, some time on Friday, 16th January, James Smith (more x 4) took his own life.
He leaves behind his beautiful wife, Hayley, and their seven children.
James was one of the earlier members of the POCUK and was one of the most generous, selfless, helpful people to have graced our community.
I am sure that I speak on behalf of everybody here who either knew James, or has been helped by the legacy of support that still remains from him, within this community's forums, when I say that our thoughts and prayers are with him and those he has left behind.
Simon

I have been advised this evening that James' funeral will be held on Friday 30th January 2009 at 4pm.
This will take place at Bedford Crematorium, 104 Norse Road, Bedford, MK41 0RL
I have been asked to say - "it would be great to see as many Pajero Owners as possible attend, to show their respects".
Hopefully those who can make it will be there.

One of James' children, Catherine, has set up an online tribute (memorial) for her dad ...
Those of you who wish, can now add something to James' online memorial by clicking HERE

From 15:50 to 16:10 today, as a mark of respect, ALL of the forum access was suspended and, in its place, I hosted THIS
When you view the page, you can click on the picture to link to the memorial where I know you are more than welcome to leave your good wishes.
Due to other commitments, I couldn't attend the funeral personally, but I hope that it was a dignified send off.
