Tom McCulloch

Tom McCulloch in characteristic good humour 
Those of you who frequented the Carers Friday lunches will be saddened to hear of the death of Tom McCulloch. Tom was a very competitive quiz doer and joined in enthusiastically with conferences and meetings. He was always very warm and welcoming with less confident or new carers helping them to join in and passing on helpful advice.
Tom had not been in the best of health recently but his death was unexpected. He died in early January and his funeral took place on Monday 17th. Fife Carers Centre and carers from Fife were represented at the ceremony by Centre Manager Mary Stewart and Carer Support Worker Grant Kidd. A collection was taken up at the end of the ceremony and Tom's family have very generously split the money taken between Fife Carers Centre and Chest, Heart and Stroke Scotland. We thank them for the donation and will use it to good purpose, continuing to offer support to other carers in Fife.
