Dear Jim was an inspiration with his dedication to volunteering and supporting RDA for so many years. I greatly appreciated his calm support, his kindness and wonderful sense of humour. My heartfelt sympathy is with Jims family. You will be so missed Jim but never forgotten. Rest in peace.

Jim, It has been an honour to have worked alongside you at the RDA in Whangarei. Monday’s and Wednesdays. Always with full enthousiasm and a friendly smile. Full of encouragement and patience, making these rides a highlight for many riders. You loved the horses, some had a very special place in your life. It won’t be the same without you there. Thank you so much for all you have done for the RDA, their volunteers, horses and the riders. We all will going to miss you. Grateful we have been able to catch up last year. Rest in peace
