Please pass on my sincere condolences to the Family.
Jimmy was my first boss after my university studies and he was like a father to me and a very good teacher. He gave me the opportunity to become his Assistant Manager at Park line, Manager in Umtali and Regional Manager in Bulawayo. I remember to have people protesting on opening of “Godspell “outside of Vistarama Bulawayo. I was considered a member of his family, and I consider Jimmy`s Family part of my Family too. Today as University Rector and professor in Lisbon, I´m missing Rhodesia. FrancisNobre@gmail.com

I remember Sonia – she was at school with me, I seem to recall she was excellent at sports, unlike myself, the typical “nerdy” bookish girl.

I was at Courtney Selous and then Oriel Girls….

Please pass on sincere condolences for the loss of her father. I didn’t realise we had him to thank for many wonderful afternoons and evenings spent at the Rainbow Park Lane. I pretty sure I saw my first cinema movie there – though it was a big luxury for our family who usually when to the “Drarven”!

When I went to live in the UK in 1979 there was actually something I could look at down MY nose because the cinemas there at the time were really tatty and run-down compared to the ones I knew at home.
