The family of the late Jim Lyons wish to express their heartfelt gratitude to all those who supported them in their recent loss.
To all who visited his home, sent sympathy and Mass cards, attended his funeral, and supported his wife Chrissie, his brother Alan and his sister Helen, and his wider family, your kindness and support has been a deep comfort during this sad time.
To Rev. Claire Aylward and Margaret Whyte on their spiritual support and guidance throughout Jim’s short illness, and for Claire in carrying out a beautiful, personal service at his funeral and her continued support towards the family.
To all the staff at the Ulster Hospital, the staff at Crossgar Surgery, district nurses and the team in Crossgar Pharmacy who all looked after Jim so well throughout his illness.
Jim made many dance friends from near and far, and we extend our sincere gratitude for your support and the immense efforts made to pay your respects to Jim. We are eternally grateful for your continued friendship and support.
To Chrissie’s brothers, sisters and extended family, your constant support has been a pillar of strength.
To Charles Rourke & Sons Funeral Directors for their help and professionalism in carrying out Jim’s funeral arrangements, to Liam, Sammy and Sammy for providing the lovely music at the service and to Daphne Scott for providing refreshments after the service.
