A tribute for Jim Spence

22nd February 2019

Friday 22nd February will stay long in the memories of the three hundred who packed St Aidan's Church to pay their respects to Jim Spence, whom they all appreciated so much for his wonderful caring ways, his outstanding service to the FOPS cause as a founder member and Deputy Chairman, never to forget his guitar playing and performance of his unique songs which thrilled us all. But he was first and foremost a true family man devoting his time to his lovely wife Shirley and to Karen and Stuart's families.

He was a true friend to so many.... a Wonderful Handsome Legend... always there for his many admirers.

Rest in Peace Mighty Jimmy Boy
