February 17, 2022To my family
We share in this time of grief, but also share in the love and memories which we have of our dearest Daddy Jones.
Words cannot express our sadness that we are feeling. Daddy Jones was an absolute gem of an “adoptive father”. A caring and loving person who always made us smile and laugh. It was a pleasure to have been part of his life. He will never be forgotton.
February 17, 2022
To my dearest Mazz (Mummy Jones) we love you and take comfort in knowing that we are here for you for whatever you need. I made a promise to Daddy Jones to look out for you xx
To my darling Frister Cindy, we have both lost a dear father. Love you and just know he will be watching us as we grow old together – so best be good. xx
To Andrew and Duncan – Your dad was a top bloke which he has passed down to you both xx
May all your treasured memories of Jimmy & Dad remain with you all.
Lots of Love, Anita & Keith Baxter xxMy Grumpy was loving, kind and helpful. He was very funny. I will miss him very much.
Lots of love
Hazza

Condolences to all your family. It was a pleasure to know you and work beside you photographing motorsport. If you can send a photo fro. Wherever you are going it would be good to see where we are all headed! I’m sure you will keep them laughing wherever you are.
