Condolences to the family and friends of James.
He was a lovely neighbour here on Ballygall Avenue, who I've only really gotten to know over the last 10 years. I was away on holiday for the last 2 weeks and only found out today about his passing, when another neighbour saw the hearse stopping outside his house and texted me.
May James rest in peace.

Deepest sympathy to Jim's family. I knew Jim, as a friend, for more than 50 years. Jim was an 'old school' bookmaker; honourable and fearless.

He was also a shrewd card-player. Life deals us all a hand of cards; when you live as long as Jim, you've played the hand you were dealt very well.

Well done, Jim. Enjoy your eternal reward.

Mick Murphy, Drumcondra and Family.

He will be sadly missed at Shelbourne Park by his many greyhound friends.
He was a great friend of my Dad (RIP) because he loved to see the greyhounds racing over hurdles and he sponsored many events over the years and they would have great chats about good hurdle dogs.The bed of heaven to Jim and he will be greeted there by his numerous friends who have gone before him.

Sincere sympathy to Oliver and the Mc Cann family on the loss of James. May he rest in peace.
