Tributes
Leave a tributeJust looked up recent funerals and saw that Jim had passed. I have great memories of Jim at the shire council . He helped me out when i wanted to seal my driveway in my Murray Street house. He engaged the shire guys to grade and seal my driveway, spending 2 days with up to 6 people to do the job. Jim was a great person to know and i will have lasting memories of him. RIP Jim, sincerely Andrew Dare ( Electrician)
