Jim Cronin (sad news)

[pure]

Hi there, I don't know if this has been posted before, but I just heard that Jim Cronin (co-founder of monkey world in Dorset) has died.

I have visited monkey world a few times and met Jim and Alison, such lovely dedicated people.
My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.
RIP

somewhere we never got around to visiting, a very sad loss to the monkey world,
bless him, Jim Cronin, must have a special place reserved for him, as did Steve Irwin[grouphug]

We have never heard of this gentleman but our thoughts are with his family.

I heard this too - very sad, but he has left behind a great legacy with monkeyworld!

Hope his family are ok.[grouphug]

Can I ask where in Dorset it is?

I am not from that county but visit friends near Shaftsbury -is it far from there?

How dreadfully sad that Monkey World and Alison in particular have lost such a good man.

Dreadfully sad.

[msnoo]Oh my, this has really knocked me for six[msnsad] I hadn't heard, I watch Monkey World a lot, as I do or did Crocodile HUnter, this is such a great loss, perhaps, the man upstairs has plans for Jim and Steve[msnwink]
Me and my family visited Monkey World last year, we didn't see either Jim or Alison, but we did see Geremy[msnsmile2]
My thoughts go out to Alison and the Monkey World family.
