James (Jim) Christopher Smith

So sorry to hear of Jim’s sudden passing. I worked with Jim at the National Software Centre in the mid 1980s. A lovely fella. Always smiling and full of fun.
My condolences to his family.

My sincere condolences to Jim's family.
I first met Jim in Greene's Bookshop, where we had summer jobs in the 1970s. He was a most likeable and cheerful colleague. It was always a pleasure to meet him.

Very sorry to hear of the passing of Jim. Please accept my deepest condolences

Evelyn and your family I am so sorry to hear such sad news of the tragic death of your Husband Jim.
My thoughts are with you all at this time.
Sincere sympathy

It is with great sadness that I read of Jim’s death

I have known Jim for more than 40 years, since my time as Honorary Treasurer of the Irish Radio Transmitters Society.
I always enjoyed Jim’s company at Society formal and informal gatherings. He was a fine amateur, professional and a true member of the IRTS and the amateur radio movement.

I shall miss my social contact with Jim. May the good Lord grant him eternal rest.

Past Treasurer IRTS

I was shocked and saddened to hear about Jim's passing. My condolences go to his family. I had the honour of meeting him and his father, Charles, in Dublin in 2023. It was the fortuitous result of connecting through genealogy to find our connection to the 5 Smith brothers from the late 1800s. Jim was a wonderful source of information and I will be forever grateful to him for his time and effort helping connect me with past and present family members. I will remember him as a kind, thoughtful and intelligent man, and I am only sorry that I did not know him more or for longer.

My condolences on your sudden loss of Jim, who was a really nice guy.

Jim was one of the first people I met when joining ESB in 1980, and we crossed paths many times during our careers, and Jim was always cheerful and helpful.

I met Jim again maybe a year or so ago and he was in great form and enjoying retirement.

Jim will be missed!

So shocked and sad to hear of Jims passing yesterday. We always had great fun at the Irish Computer Fellows Lunch and some lovely chats in the past couple of years about genealogy. Jim was a brilliant character who was generous with knowledge and stories. He'll be missed. My sincere sympathy to his wife, children and extended family. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.

Dear Evelyn, Jenni, Alan and the rest of his family - I met Jim through business but Jim became a friend. I was lucky enough to spend many enjoyable hours over a meal and a glass of wine - or two. Gone far too soon RIP Jim

My sincere condolences to Jim’s wife and family. I have very happy memories of my time working with Jim in ESB.
Thank you for a beautiful service on Friday and especially Alan for a very moving eulogy. Jim would have been very proud.

RIP Jim.

My sincerest sympathies to all of Jim’s family. Jim was a true gentleman. I had the pleasure of meeting him when I was starting my career. He was always willing to engage with others and had a remarkable ability to make everyone feel welcome.

I was shocked to learn of Jim’s sudden passing. He was a valued colleague in ESB for many years. We also shared a common interest in the Amateur Radio hobby in which he was highly regarded. Condolences and deepest sympathy to his family.

Evelyn, Jenni and Alan, our deepest condolences on your terrible loss. Jim was such fun and always full of chat. I hope that your wonderful memories of great times with him will comfort you at this difficult time.

I was very sorry to hear that Jim had passed away. I had not seen much of him in recent years, but he and I undertook an eventful four week road trip in the USA in 1984, couch-surfing with multiple friends, driving through Death Valley on to the Grand Canyon, and beyond. Incredible memories and a wonderful guy to travel with. Rest in Peace, Jim.

Deepest sympathy to all of Jim's family.
He was such a lovely man and it was a real pleasure to know Jim.

Dear Evelyn and family
I was so sorry to hear of the sudden passing of Jim. We had such fun as a group in our late teens in Kilmacud, and great memories of the stillorgan/Kilmacud Youth Club.
Jim was always so good
Humoured. May he rest in peace.

Dearest Evelyn, Jenni and Alan,

Terrible shock and great loss. All too soon. A man with so much to give and so much living to do. Modest, warm, genuine and always enquiring and interested. Loved to catch-up, and his sincerity in asking “how’s life”. The heart of Greystones and much more !

Evelyn and family, please accept my deepest sympathies on Jim's passing.

I was sad to hear of Jim passing.
We worked together for a few years in ESB and I always enjoyed his company, in work and socially.
In recent years we only got to chat when our paths crossed in Greystones.
But Jim always made time to have a quick catchup on the latest work news.
He was one of life’s unique characters and will be sadly missed.
My thoughts go with Evelyn and all Jim's family
Dave Cooke Ex ESB

I have many happy memories of Jim ‘s time on the St Benildus past pupils committee and the memorable trip to France in the cream Toyota ? I think I may have converted him to a brief fondness for the music of Grace Jones

Evelyn, so very sorry on the loss of your husband Jim. He was such a lovely man. Heartfelt condolences to you and your family at this sad time. May he rest in Peace

I'm so sorry to hear about Uncle Jim's passing. He was an amazing uncle to me and my sister, and I greatly enjoyed seeing him when we did get to fly over to see family. I still remember how excited he was by the smoothness of the rotation on a fidget spinner I showed him once as a teenager, and how he appreciated the design and engineering details in so many things other people would overlook. He will very much be missed, even an ocean away.

Evelyn, I am so shocked and sorry to learn about Jim. A friendly , nice man who was so lively and interesting . Irene

We are further saddened by the fact that on the day we bury our dear friend, our group were to celebrate our Christmas get together. Rest in peace Jim. We'll raise a glass to you.

We only recently met Jim and we enjoyed his knowledge of local history. A gentleman and deepest sympathy to all the family.
