Post by: Maggi Young on May 29, 2017, 02:16:11 PM
I am sorry to tell members of the passing of Glasgow Assistant Show Secretary, and all round good guy, Bill Robinson.

Bill had been seriously ill for a long time and  was remarkably  upbeat  throughout  that time.
Bill died on Thursday 25th May.
His funeral service  will be held on Tuesday 6th June, 1.30 pm, at Craigton Crematorium, Berryknowes Road, Glasgow G52 2DB.

A friendly soul, always ready with a well-grown plant to swap and a tale to tell, Bill will be sorely missed  by his many friends. We send our fondest condolences to his  wife Marion and all his family at this sad time.

These  lovely photos are of a visit  Alan Gardner and his wife Joyce made with Bill and Marion just a few weeks ago.
