Funeral Notices

It is with great regret that we need to announce that our Dad, Jim Barnes sadly passed away on Friday 6th September in a motorbike accident.

We couldn’t have asked for a better Dad/Grandad who was always there for us and will be greatly missed, probably more than he realised.

Jim was brought up in St Helens and attended Cowley School and was well known around the Blackpool area where he attended Poulton College and spend most of his adult life with his beloved wife Lynn (who sadly passed away in 2009).

He was a serving police officer for 30 years, predominantly on traffic in and around the Fylde coast. He was a Cub Scout leader for around 30 years and a dedicated Freemason for 25. He put considerable efforts into helping people and raising money for charity and was always on hand if needed.

He will be remembered as a happy, caring man with an infectious laugh and great sense of humour who always had a funny story to share. His love of Trains, Motorbikes, Cars and time with his family was well known and he loved just driving/riding all his life.

He is survived by his two children, Chris and Jane and one Granddaughter, all of whom he loved dearly and his happiest times were spent with them.
