The family of the late James Thomas a.k.a âDaddyâ – Hospital Road

Sunrise: November 2nd 1918
Sunset: August 5th 2008

Wish to express sincere thanks to those who telephoned, sent wreaths, cards, said prayers or in other way supported us in our time of bereavement.

O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Sadly missed by family & friends
