I am also an ex serviceman and feel for everyone in his family and friends group. A very sad day for the town, and we all must support our men and women out there in their struggle

RIP

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.


my heart goes out to his whole family, his parents Andy and Sharon, his brothers Gareth, Dean and Ryan, his Granparents Ken and Pauline Backhouse
he will never be forgotten and now joins his Great Uncle William Backhouse on the towns roll of honour

Rest in peace young man xx

Very sad news indeed.

May I remind everybody that there's a 'Help For Heroes' R.L. Legends v Army match on Saturday 25th July at the Jungle (rlLINKrl), giving us a chance to show support for our servicemen and women and contribute to this charity that provides some of the help and support they need.



R.I.P. James.

So very sad, losing James, who put his life on the line, fighting so that others may enjoy the freedom we all take very much for granted in this country.

It puts rugby very much into perspective, deep condolences to his family and friends.

This is extremely sad news. As a nation we are indebted to the sacrifices of our heroes in the armed forces.

Condolences to all who knew him. RIP James.

[iThey shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old

total and utmost respect,condolences to the family

So so sad, and an amazing turnout to see all the repatriated soldiers given the true respect they deserve, dead soldiers never truely die they live forever in the regiments they serve, full respect to the lad and condolences to his family

Very sad news, my brother in law has just told me about the news and mentioned this game at the same time, 4 of us will be coming over to show our support.

RIP James, my thoughts are with your friends and family xx

I will be there on the 25 July, it is the least I can do,

My thoughts are with Jame's familly and those whos loved ones are over there "putting their life on the line"

God bless

R.I.P young man.

R.I.P. my thoughts go out to his family, dance with the angels young man.
