Member passing
It is with great sadness I must let the forum know of the passing of James Shevels, Charliedog012012.
James was a dear friend, and he and I would attend the Stratford fair together. We had a mutual love of collecting, but deeper than that, we were friends. James had been stoically fighting illness for some time. His true love, Sandra his wife, has asked me to convey his passing to you all. I will miss James so very much. He and I emailed several times a week, and there was no-one more excited to get a badge, rare or common, than James. Those that have seen his drawings album will know he had many talents, but the main one was he was a true gentleman. We have lost a great man. Tim

"May He Rest in Peace" A real gentleman who always had a kind word , we swapped stories , badges and he became a friend rather than simply a forum member. Please pass on my respects to his family. .

I’m so sorry to hear that Tim. Although I never met James we exchanged PM’s and emails. A very kind, humble and genuine person. I loved seeing his drawings of badges, a very talented draughtsman and I was privileged enough that he drew one at my request.
Deepest sympathies to all his family and friends, he really will be very greatly missed.

Extremely sad to read this; I met James once only, at Stratford, we exchanged a few emails and I did send him a few bits and pieces for his collections.
He had offered to do one of his superb drawings of a badge of my choosing, but unfortunately I never got around to letting him know which one. Condolences to his family and friends. Regards. Brian.
