Obituary

From The Old Bostonian Issue 47 Spring / Summer 2008

James Wilfred Mould has died at Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge at the age of 77. He was born in Boston, the elder son of Frederick James Mould, the High Street baker and town councillor.

He is survived by wife Nina, daughter Quita, sister Audrey Colam and brother Paul.

Jim was educated at Staniland School and Boston Grammar School. On leaving school he worked at Sinclair Seeds, in the Market Place, then Lin Can, in London Road. He moved to Gorleston when he started working for Dr Scholl's and later became an income tax officer at Bishops Stortford.

He was a member of the old Bostonian Association and played in the association’s football and cricket teams. He also played darts at the Mason's Arms. Sport remained an important part of his life and he continued to play badminton until his health deteriorated three years ago.

He enjoyed regular trips to London with his daughter to the theatre and opera.

The funeral was a civil burial ceremony conducted by Sharon Price, followed by a woodland burial at Barton Glede near Cambridge.
