Sadly we have to share that David Cockerton passed away on Wednesday 7th of October after a battle against pancreatic cancer. Huge thanks to St Columba’s Hospice for the exceptional care and compassion in his last few days, including allowing his best pal Murdo to be with him.
Anyone who wishes to join us to say their last goodbyes at East Lothian Crematorium on Monday 26th October at 10.30am and thereafter at Garleton Lodge to share memories (and perhaps a wee dram) is more than welcome . The service will also be live-streamed and I will update this post with a link in due course.
