I have been away receiving treatment myself and did not know that my dear doctor had passed away after her long battle until just now. She was my doctor for 20 years and I truly loved and respected her. Her passing is a great loss to her patients and the island's medical community. My thoughts and prayers are with her husband, family and of course her Family Practice family, especially Carol. I will miss her practical advice and the way that she knew me so well. Very sad.

Dearest Su, I am so so sorry that you have lost your darling Valerie. I am pleased that we managed to speak albeit briefly last month on skype, and to be reminded of Valerie's wonderful and electric smile and just her general upbeat and always good natured self; even when she was certainly not feeling her best. My thoughts are with you and all Valerie's family. With love and sadness for you all. Gregory

Dear Sandy, I met you in Boston earlier this year but knew Dr James from her days of being my doctor growing up. She was always, as so many others have said, so caring. I have thought of Dr James often since our paths crossed in Boston late last year and am so sorry to her of her passing. My thoughts are with you and all of her family, as well as the Family Practice Group. Sophie x

My sadness and disbelief at my doctor's passing were a bit mitigated yesterday at the memorial service. Sanders and Leigh and Mr. Darling along with the letter from Valerie's father drew us all together. Archdeacon Doughty raised us up. The music was wonderful. May the family be comforted by the touching and memorable service yesterday.

My deepest condolences goes out to Dr.Valerie James' husband, colleagues and family from here and abroad. Dr. James has been my doctor for many years and she has always been very caring and concerned about our health. I worked at the hospital for all the years that I have known her and although I have retired,at many times that I went to her for an appointment , she would always say that she counldn't stop but she would make it a point to say hello. That just goes to show what a wonderful person that she was. God Bless you, you will be well missed.

Dear Sandy, Leigh, Suwan, Jo and family
Valerie was an excellent doctor, respected by her peers and health professionals and loved by her patients. She was a great friend and colleague, who I will truly miss. When Valerie worked as Medical Office at the Health Department, we worked together on a health study at one of the schools. Valerie had to get blood samples from some of the children, to lessen their fears she brought her parrot Strudwick to school with her. The kids loved him and she had no trouble getting their blood! Bob and my thoughts are with you at this difficult time. Betsy and Bob Baillie

Dear Sanders and Valerie's Family,
Valerie was an outstanding doctor.....no one could ever question her experience, her work ethic or her dedication to her patients. I was privileged to be part of her team for several years at the Family Practice, and she taught me so much.
So many in Bermuda will mourn her passing, and as the tributes attest to, her personality touched many across the globe.
My sincere condolences. I will miss her very much.

To Dr. James husband and family,
I will miss Dr. James. She was a GREAT doctor. She really cared for her patients. She always asked me about myself first before she dealt with why I had come to see her. I used to see her at the grocery store sometimes and she always called me by name and asked how my daughter was. She wasn't just your doctor, she was also a friend. May God continue to comfort you and your family.

Carla Simmons

My sincerest condolences to Sanders and family may you find peace in knowing she led a useful life and will be remembered for her caring and reflective nature.

August 8, 2014

For many years I worked at the hospital and on several occasions would pass Dr. James in the corridors not knowing who she was but we always acknowledged each other. I was quite shocked to learn of her passing. After reading the wonderful tributes in her honor I can truly attest to every genuine word. Not only did her kindness impact on her patients but to me personally. As I witnessed and can honestly say is that if there was ever an angel I crossed paths with t recognize her and believe she was a true example of God's intent for all humanity. My sincere condolences to her family and may you be comforted in knowing how blessed you are to have shared lives. May god bless you

My Deepest Sympathy to the Family of Dr. James.

May Gods faithfulness provide you comfort at this time.
Dr. James was one of the most sensitive, caring Doctors I've ever had. Her work didn't stop in the office. She took time out of her schedule and visited me daily when I became ill 1 month prior to delivering my child.
Dr. James was a one of a kind lady and will be a real miss.
Sincerely,
Kim Simons & Family

I had not been a patient of Dr. James for very long but I found her to be caring, efficient and thoughtful. She made many visits to me in the hospital when I had surgery for double knee replacements. Her friendly professionalism was very welcome. Dr. James will be greatly missed.

Annette Frith

August 8, 2014

At the end of. 2012 my husband and I moved into a house opposite Valerie's father, Dick James, and his lovely wife Maggie in Launceston, Tasmania Australia. Sometime during the last 12 months Dick needed to visit Sanders and Valerie's property near Ross, Tasmania, and invited my husband I to accompany them. An amazing property. I did not know or meet Valerie, but through Dick and Maggie I felt I knew her. Reading the admiration and love of Valerie confirms everything I had imagined. My heart is breaking for her family, for her husband and for her friends and most particularly for her father Dick, who not that many years ago lost his son, Valerie's brother, to cancer as well. A father should not have to endure this. Am so saddened that such a beautiful soul has left this world.

What a loss!
Dr James was truly an old fashioned Family doctor. She cared for her patients, both their physical condition as well as their general well being. She comforted you when that was needed and also celebrated with you. You did not leave an annual physical without her requiring and update on all the family members around you. She will be truly missed

Sandy, may you be comforted by the many pleasant memories and the thought that she is no longer suffering.

We are all terribly saddened to hear of Valerie's passing and our thoughts are with you at such a difficult time.

It comes as no surprise to see the many wonderful things written here about Valerie on a personal and professional level, God bless her.

Sandy, so saddened by this. I cannot imagine the depth of your grief. She was so perfectly and refreshingly down to earth, never on a high horse with her medical knowledge. Condolences to all who feel this loss. So tragic to loose so young a healer to a disease which could not be beaten.

August 6, 2014

I remember having a preference for male doctors as I had never encountered a female physician I liked-that is until I met Dr. James. I took to her right away. She was so kind and caring and you always felt that she genuinely cared about you as a person and that she wanted the best for you. She had such a reassuring way about her-I just can't explain it...even if she found something wrong, she just had such a calm way of handling it and you felt you were in safe hands.

I am in such shock right now. My prayers go out to the family of this wonderful woman. She will be sorely missed.

My sincere sympathy goes out to Dr James' family, friends, and colleagues. Valerie 'fought the good fight with all her might'. Despite her severe illness, she pushed on - instead of lying in her hospital bed, she would walk the corridor, IV in tow - even venturing outside the main lobby to get some 'fresh air'. I shall miss her friendly smile and greetings as I continue to volunteer at the KEMH information desk. She had an amazingly positive attitude about the disease and how she personally would handle it. She was a brave and courageous lady and will be missed by all who had the pleasure of knowing her. May she Rest in (well deserved) Peace.

August 6, 2014

Always busy I looked forward to my annual appointment with Dr. James, I can see her smile, asking how have you been?quietly and patiently waiting for you to say whatever you needed. She always reminded you to find time for yourself, take care of yourself first. She was/is beautiful both inside and out, I will really miss her but I know she is now at peace.

My sincere & heartfelt condolences to the family & colleagues of Dr. Valerie James. She was more than just a doctor to me, she was a friend. I had the pleasure to know Dr. James for nearly 30 years, she stuck by me through thick & thin, good times & bad. She was always there to listen when I needed her & set me straight when I needed just that. She returned each & every call no matter the time of day, rare in this day & age. I have thought of her often now that I am off the Island, especially as I have not been able to find a doctor who lives up to her standards. She was one in a million, I am grateful to have had the chance to know her. I will always remember you Dr. James. Rest in peace, my friend.

Dear Sandy,
I am so very very sorry to hear the sad news about Valerie. I'm traveling and only just heard and I am beside myself with grief. Valerie was a wonderful doctor and friend. She was truly amazing. There are countless occasions when she came to my rescue when I was ill or needed advice, even if I was abroad, through life's tough times, just endless really. So caring. I could go on and on. She was more than just an incredible doctor, she was a friend. We had a lovely visit a few weeks ago and I will always cherish that memory along with so many others. She was one of a kind and I'm deeply saddened to see her go. I will truly miss her. You have my heartfelt sincerest condolences. My thoughts and prayers are with you, your family, the Family Practice Group and friends.

Dear Sandy,
My deepest thoughts are with you with loss of your special wife, Valerie. She was a great doctor during the time we worked together in Casemates while I was in charge of the medical services in the prison.
I remember the grand farewell we gave her when she was leaving to open up her Family Practice. She was so surprised. Valerie was so highly thought off that many of the prison officers changed to her practice.
I was so happy to have the opportunity to visit her and have a good talk. She was worried about what will happen to you. I know she spoiled you so.
If you ever want a chat, I will be there for you.
Love

Donna Dean

August 5, 2014

My heart is broken for the family and The Family Practice center. Valarie was more than a Dr and made you feel important. She was my husband's Dr in Prison and took me on many years later. I just had to call and she always called back, no matter the time and made sure you were ok. We had many wonderful talks and laughs. We will both miss her very much and appreciate the concern Dr White has shown us. We often talked about me running and lifting weights and her words to me was "to always keep doing what you are doing." Sandy and family, Carol, Dr White and the rest of Family Practice, know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear this sad news. Valerie was an excellent doctor and valued professional colleague and will be greatly missed. My thoughts are with Sandy, Louise, Carol and all Valerie's relatives and friends.

August 5, 2014

There are two things I will always remember about Valerie. Her love for Sandy and the seriousness in which she approached her profession. She was a tough cookie, but a caring one. I also remember the day when I fainted because a patient was bleeding. She gently persuaded me that I might be better off as a social worker rather than the nurse I had hoped to be. She turned out to be right! I am very grateful for the role she played in my career and family life. My deepest sympathies to Sandy, her family and the Family Practice Group.

With much love, Claudette Fleming

My mother who died in June, was visited by Dr. James on at least 2 occasions; once in the ICU and once on a general ward. Dr James made it known that she was making special visits to my mom because she had been her GP all these years and still considered it her duty to visit her patients; all the more amazing considering she was facing her own end of life battle. What a remarkable and selfless person! Bermuda (and the world) just lost a truly remarkable person.
