He was a very joyful man that brought much warmth & laughter to Edinburgh's CSU having driven them on many retreats.

His presence will be greatly missed in the student common room where he'd chat with people while fixing, testing & mocking the electrical appliances.

He was a legend: one of the most approachable, friendly and supportive people you could wish to meet.

He was always willing to give his time to help those in need.

He will be very sadly missed.

I will pray for him too. He was born the same year as I was, and professed the same year as I became a Catholic. God rest his soul.

A true friend and a true gentleman, We have shared many laughs, jokes and tears over the last 20 years. You have always been considered one of the family and will be greatly missed by me and all the boys at the Barras.

Looks like I will have to learn to fix the watches myself now!

Rest in peace dear friend.

Jim / JP and family.
