Hi
I have just found this forum and was surprised to see this on here.
Cathy Kerr was my great aunt. Her funeral was Friday and there were lots of people there. She was a very popular much loved lady.
I love the picture of her and John, its lovely. Does anyone have anymore?

Thank you all for your lovely messages. I am sure John would be very touched.

I am sure that if there was a memorial set for a later date, and everyone knew about it in a timely fashion, there would be a very big turnout. There are many of us that have not had the chance to pay our respects!

Thanks for those lovely pictures.

I am not sure if there will be a memorial. However she is at rest in the cemetary in Campbeltown. She is at the back on the left hand side, next to William Mitchell, and Mary McNaughton (her sister). I will mention to John about memorial idea or see if there is a way some of you can pay your respects if you so wish.

Thanks again

Just came on the forum tonight been busy lately.. Can't quite believe this Cathy Kerr was probably the best teacher I had in the Grammar, she taught me Art all the way through to Higher. She was an inspirational lady and she will be missed. My thoughts are with the rest of the faimily.

Hi!
I am sorry but i havent said anything to John about a memorial as yet, wasnt sure if it would be appropriate right now. However i am sure he will be more than happy if you would like to go to her grave. Its in Kilkerran cemetary. At the back on the left hand side. She is next to William Mitchell.

I am planning a visit to the Wee Toon in May so i might mention it to him then and see what he says. Sorry for not getting back to all any quicker.

Thanks
Emma

Things like that can always wait. As long as everyone gets the word out in plenty time, then people will have time to work it into their schedules, etc.

Thanks for thinking of us, but I am sure none of us would want to upset John. It seems that the last few ripples of the news are still reaching the most far flung among us.

Those of you who have been reading the MOK run thread probably know that I did the ladies 10k in Glasgow last week and am also running in Campbeltown on Sunday. I am running to raise some money for Cancer Research in memory of Cathy who was my very special aunt. Your comments were all such a wonderful comfort to the family at a difficult time that I thought some of you may like the opportunity to donate some money in Cathys memory. You can visit my webpage at www.justgiving.com/kirstensmum or see me around with my sponsorsheet. Well done also to emay who did the recent race for life for also remembering Cathy.
Many thanks again for your kind words and thanks for the message DP.
