SKENE (Ballater)

Maggie, Gemma, Michael and extended families would like to thank everyone who helped celebrate the life of the “true gentleman, devoted husband and father” Derek at Pittodrie Stadium last week. It was the send off he deserved. They’d also like to thank everyone for the love, kind messages and support through what was an extremely difficult time for the family.

Through very generous donations they managed to raise £1853.30 for Derek’s three chosen charities: Charlie’s House, Calico and the Angus MacDonald Foundation.

A special mention to ARI Ward 114, Roxburghe House, Jack Henderson at Brian Smith Funeral Services and The Ballater Flower Room for their support and professionalism.
