AVOCH COMMEMORATION 2015

Well, what a great weekend that was. A big thank you to the Andrew De Moray project for their tireless devotion to this event and for me it was very special as it was the first time I had attended.

I'd heard so much in the past from David and Duncan about how special this commemoration was, and they were right.

I was honoured to be asked say a few words on behalf of the Society and it was a very touching moment seeing Jean raise the new Saltire, once again, as always donated by the Society.

We laid a few white roses and Jean scattered some of Duncan's ashes at the Cairn, it doesn't get any easier and our hearts go out to Jean, but she's doing Duncan proud and it’s a nice feeling knowing that the Boss is somehow still with us at these events.

Thanks to everyone involved for making me feel so welcome, it may have been my first trip but it certainly won't be my last.
