09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw It is another example of the extreme seriousness of the cause which called our brother with millions of others. It is indeed an example of the price which is being paid for our safety and comfort and peace at home. We salute the memory of one who was of our number, but now is no longer with us. We pay tribute to one who withheld nothing, but gave all. He was a hero who so died for us all and we thank God that Hw will reward him with His all. They do not die who gave so much, they live and that immortally. They shall surely be first in the army of the King of Kings, when He marches in to take the Kingdoms of the world. To his father and sister and relatives and friends we extend this day our sincere sympathy. To his stricken wife, with her little ones, we say, ‘God bless you and keep you and provide for you and your need in the future.’
09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw ‘Brethren, there are times in life when sorrow too deep for words come suddenly upon us. It came last night when the sad news reached us of the death of Jim Megaw. He was a young man known to us all and rightly respected. He was killed in trhe front line of the First Army, facing the foe. He leaves a stricken wife and two little children, a bereaved father and sorrowing sister. Our hearts go out to the in this dark hour of grief, for words fail to express to them the sympathy we feel for them.
09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw At the morning service in First Moneymore Presbyterian Church on Sunday, Rev H C Conn, B.A., paid the following tribute to Guardsman Jim Megaw, after which the congregation stood for a minute’s silence:-
09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw 02572
09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw The only son of Mr Robert Megaw and the late Mrs Megaw of Hillview, Moneymore, the late Guardsman Megaw was a dutiful son and loving brother in his family. The heartfelt sympathy of the whole district has gone out spontaneously to his sorrowing father and sister, and especially to his young bereaved widow, prostrated with grief by this heart searing news, and to his two infant children, who cannot now experience the warmth of a father’s love.
09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw Essentially of a modest disposition, unobtrusive in company, kindly in all his contacts, a devoted husband and loyal chum, it was indeed a privilege to call him friend.
09/12/2020 Gman Thomas James Megaw That a price must be paid, and that too by our kith and kin, was brought home to the community in Moneymore when the sad news came on Saturday night that Guardsman Jim Megaw had been killed in action. Guardsman Megaw joined the Irish Guards some six years ago, so that, right from the outbreak of war, he was in action with this famous regiment. In May 1940 he was in the famous expedition to Narvik, where the Guards put up a heroic stand against overwhelming odds. In the subsequent evacuation the transport in which he was embarked was torpedoed, but fortunately with little loss of life.
