I would like to extend my condolences to my Aunt Mary, Cousin Naomi and family on this sad occasion. I have fond memories of Mary and Jim attending my twenty first birthday in 1959 at my home in Gillingham, Kent. Some years later after I had immigrated to Australia, Mary and Jim stayed with me in Canberra. Whilst Mary and Jim were in Canberra we visited the Australian War memorial where a Lancaster bomber is accommodated. Jim in his quiet and unassuming way helped out the tour guide explaining some of the finer points of the aircraft. The tour showed their appreciation of Jim’s efforts, particularly as they were made aware of his WW2 RAF service, and having been a Lancaster Bomber crewman, with a round of applause. Jim with his quiet persona was a touch embarrassed with this response but nonetheless pleased. Jim, among many other things will be remembered for the love and care he showed his family and friends during his long life. He no doubt would have been a guiding influence with others in particular the many students that came under his influence. He would have touched many people during his long life. It should be remembered that for those who don’t know Jim served in WW2 with the RAF attached to 44 and 83 Squadrons. 83 Squadron was a part of the famed Pathfinder Group. Jim completed 30 Missions no mean feat when it should be remembered Bomber Command suffered enormous casualties. Today will be tough for family and friends my thoughts will be with you all. Jim - may you Rest In Peace. Norman Clements (Nephew) Canberra, Australia I would like to extend my condolences to my Aunt Mary, Cousin Naomi and family on this sad occasion.
