It was a privilege to play for Jim's funeral. My condolences to Catherine and Tony, great past pupils of mine. Bless you all, RIP.

Mr Collins was a good teacher and among many other memorable characters from John Rigby's teaching staff back in the day. He was fair and honest with a good teaching style. He taught all my siblings and I. Thoughts and condolences to Mr Collins' family.

Remember Jim from Notre Dame and Ann from St Alban's. He had a very dry sense of humour- which he needed when trying to teach me French! Very respected teacher.
