Gary Beighton



Sad news today. We learnt of the passing on 15 May of my contemporary at UMIST and good friend over the years, Gary Beighton, after a short illness.

More donations to cancer charities will no doubt follow. Other good friends are undergoing treatment for cancers. It's almost as if there's an epidemic.

We remain in Fort William before spending a few days in Montrose and returning home on Saturday, after which I will wrap up this series of postings with a single report on the last five days of the trip.

The picture of Gary was taken in 1970, at a party to celebrate our success in the 55 mile charity walk - Bogle Stroll, in which Gary was a reliable team member.

RIP Gary
