It is with sadness that we share the following news from our former Chair, Nick Jennings:

“We are sad to hear of the death of John Furlonger. He died peacefully at home with his family on Saturday 17 January in his 90th year. John served the community well as both Chairman and Secretary of the Community Council. He was a Kirk Elder and organised the Remembrance Service for many years. He had a charming polite manner and a wry sense of humour. He’ll be sadly missed and long remembered.”

Our thoughts are with Beatrice and all of John’s family at this time.
