Mrs Ali Harvey

What a huge loss - but what a great legacy. James was kind, warm and generous and his time on this world made an impact on everyone he came across. You are feeling the love because of who he was and who you are. Take comfort from the support around you and know that it is here for you and the girls whenever you need it. These dark times will give way eventually to better ones, but the number of people who are here for you now is testament to your spirit and his. His soul lives on in his lovely girls and they should be so proud of their dad, as I'm sure they are. We will remember him at every opportunity and celebrate in his style. With tons of gorgeous food and lots of laughter. Lots of love - the Graham-Mays xxxx

From both Doug and Leanne Mack: Such a caring and kind person who made the office light up with such humour. It's nice to see messages from other people, but also sad that we have lost such an amazing person.

James, you will be so missed. Your limping around the office and circle of trust have been continuously on my mind since I heard the news.

Ms Emma Mercieca

James was the kindest, most supportive man. He went above and beyond for everyone and he is going to be so deeply missed. I will miss how he scoffed chocolate like it was his last meal & hovering behind me at work because he wanted something. I am gutted that I cannot attend his celebration & pay my last respects to him. Hopefully he knew how much everyone loved and respected him. Sending so much love. RIP JB xxx
