In life you meet a lot of people but only a few of them will be big characters. James was one of them big characters.

The way he could relate to people was amazing to watch and encounter. He was a beacon of support, help, encouragement and knowledge as well as having a great sense of humour. 

He lit up a room every time he entered and then took that light and shone it on people he felt needed it more. 

The stories James told and the countless craic had after training sessions will never be forgotten. His memory will live on through those that he has inspired. 

Rest easy James.
