| Audrey Edwards |
We have just heard the sad news that Audrey Edwards has died. Audrey and her husband Jimmy (Club President 1993-1994) were long-standing members of the Buchanan. They left Glasgow some 15 years ago, but Audrey will be remembered by many of our current members.

| Ian Aitchison |
We are saddened to hear of the death of Ian Aitchison who was a member of the Buchanan Bridge Club for some 40 years. Ian was Club President in 2001 and was accorded Honorary Membership of the club.
Parkinson's disease forced Ian to give up Bridge almost ten years ago, but all members of longer standing will have known him. The funeral will be held on Wednesday 18th December at Woodside Crematorium in Paisley at 11 am and then afterwards at Ralston Golf Club.
Our thoughts are with Evelyn and his family.
