James was a truly kind and selfless soul, always ready to lend a hand with no expectation of anything in return. His warmth, good humour, and generosity made working alongside him a pleasure, and the laughs we shared will be fondly remembered.

His presence will be deeply missed, but his impact will not be forgotten. Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.

Rest in peace, James.

The sweetest guy with not a breath of malice. We are heart broken and can not understand why you've been taken so soon, but (I) take comfort in the belief that it IS for a reason and that you are somewhere higher that we can't begin to imagine yet, but will do when we see you again there before very long
Love you so much
Big ugly sis 💔xx
