The obituary notice of James Vincent (Jim) HUGHES

Dear Jim, I am sure you are sitting with the angels in heaven, may your soul rest in eternal peace, fare thee well, till we meet again

Jim, I am so shocked and saddened to hear this news today. You were such a kind man and an inspiration to me. We only got to catch up once or twice a year, but I loved sharing food together and listening to your stories. You will be greatly, greatly missed. Take care, you are with our God now. Michael X

To my dear Uncle Jim, you were the kindest of men and the definition of a gentleman. You have been so good to me and were so patient with me when you were teaching me maths when I was growing up, I’m ashamed to say I’m still completely useless at it but I truly appreciate the effort you put in. You were a wonderful man and I am missing you terribly. You are so very loved.

Uncle Jim, you have brought so much light to so many lives and truly had a heart of gold. I am so grateful to call you family and to have shared the precious time that we were able to when you came to Australia or when we went to the UK. I can't believe that you are gone, it's just too soon and my heart hurts. I wish we could be there to say goodbye to you on Friday. - All my love, Grace xxx

Goodbye dear cousin I have happy memories of you and the family rest in peace
