The words of All saints, Aston friends and colleagues we totally wholeheartedly support.
Barry, George and staff are deeply saddened by Jim’s death and our love and best wishes go to Millie his wife, two sons, their wife’s and family’s at this very sad time.
Jim has worked tirelessly for many years in our community looking after families in their time of need. He has taken many funeral services, his professional conduct, his eminence compassion and approachability added to his wonderful likeable character.
Barry and George have been honoured and duly humbled by working alongside such a truly lovely man.
May he rest in peace
May we take this opportunity to wish you a peaceful Christmas and a good New year. It has been our privilege to serve you and assist you when needed.
The whole church community in Aston and Ulley has been shocked and saddened by the recent death of Jim Nuttall. Together with his wife Millie, Jim was a stalwart of the church for over 35 years. Millie was a long standing Churchwarden and Jim served faithfully and diligently as Lay Reader throughout his time at Aston until he stepped down a couple of years ago. Jim moved to Sheffield with his work, having previously served as Lay Reader in Pudsey. His ministry was characterised by his good nature and sense of humour (he was a Blackburn Rovers fan after all!). He was an outstanding preacher! He regularly took services when no priest was available, helping out particularly during COVID and our long vacancy at Aston. He took many hundreds of funerals, always leading them with grace and humility. He mentored more than one curate in the art of taking a professional funeral. Jim leaves behind him his beloved wife Millie, two sons and grandchildren. He also leaves a legacy of Godly service and ministry and he will be sorely missed by all who knew him. Rest in Peace Jim, and thank you.
