Jill Richmond, Founding Clan Society Secretary

Post by Kyle MacLea »

Dear friends and clansmen,

I regret to pass along the news that our founding Clan Secretary, Jill Richmond, has passed away, last Friday, 14th October after a 5-year battle with cancer. She was one of the kindest people in the Clan Society when we founded it, tirelessly devoted, and a wonderful friend to many of us. Her husband Brian tells me that her Thanksgiving Service is to be next Monday at Colvend Parish Church.

With sadness,

Dear Kyle and all Clan members,

I am so sorry to hear this news. I was just about to contact her as I had not been in contact with her for a while. I was not aware she was ill. She was very supportive of my work and was one of the reasons for my joining the Clan Maclea Livingstone Society and I enjoyed her feedback and comments. What a loss for the Clan Society and even more so for her husband Brian and their family. Above all we will remember her love for Clan Livingstone and Livingstone genealogy. And for me the loss of a good friend in the Clan.

regards,

Donald (Livingstone) Clink
Historian

Very sad news indeed. I knew she had stepped cown for medical reasons but didn't know it was that serious. Our hearts and prayers go out to her family.
