So sorry to hear of Eric's passing. Working in Kilbegnet will be strange without Eric popping around for a chat. He generally would be the first to arrive and the last to leave each season. May he rest in peace with his Kilbegnet neighbours, Madge and Wynn who left us this year and of course his lovely wife Jean.

Doro and I have known Eric for over half a century, and all of us in Kilbegnet will miss him greatly. We send our deepest sympathy to Neil and Judy and his extended family.
Ever the practical man, no task or challenge was too much for Eric and many a time he came to our assistance when all seemed lost.
He really enjoyed Kilbegnet golf team outings, with exhortations to his playing partners to keep out of the “flipping” trees or bunkers !!!
May Eric rest in Peace.
Norman and Dorothy Kilroy.
