Noelene and family, sorry to read of the death of Jim. I have many fond memories of our bowling years with and against Jim. He will be surely missed by the Indoor Bowling fraternity.

Dear Mrs Boniface and family

I was saddened to hear that Mr Boniface has passed away. I remember him as such a lovely man when I would visit with my sister Raewyn...a long long time ago at your house in Nichol Street.

Please accept my deepest sympathy

To Noelene and family. Such fond memories of Jim playing bowls over many years come flooding back. Such a fine ambassador to our game in many ways. Stay comforted he is now at peace and catching up with fellow bowlers long past. Condolences to you all. The Gray family.
