  3. Such a caring man! Jim used to drop off Chisco hampers and take my siblings and me to Maccas. I’ll never forget the large Freddo Frogs he would sneak into my hand while Mum wasn’t looking as we waited at the bus stop. Every time I have Kookaburra Cookies, I think of Jim. Remembered beautifully. Thinking of the Stacey family.

  4. In death, we have been shown the joy and kindness that Dad’s life has touched so many people across the community in Warrnambool. In our life we have been even more fortunate to have shared his journey and so many more experiences with him. The time has now come for dad to be finally reunited with mum. Love always Shane, Letecya, Joshua and Liam

  5. A great neighbour and a true gentleman that will be sadly missed. I feel privileged to have spent time with Jim, in particular when we went on tour to his childhood home in Koroit a few years back. He has kept a close eye over our house and raked up leaves in our absence, purely as he had a huge heart
    Sincere condolences to the wider Stacey family from my family.

My children and I won’t forget how kind you were to us after loosing my husband and young son. My children loved the Maccas visits with you and Kathy.
