It is with deep regret that the club reports the passing of John paterson on 18th January 2012.
John was a founder member who, from the very outset, was a strong supporter of the club. This lasted until he sold his business and in his words “bought a wee hoose in Spain” Over recent years he spent winters there and returned for our summers although both he and his wife found difficulty in maintaining this lifestyle because of ill health. He enjoyed his sport and besides table tennis he was a member of Harburn Golf Club and Pumpherston Bowling Club.
John was blessed with a relaxed easy going attitude which made him a very popular whether in a social or sporting event. The expression “one of life’s gentlemen” would provide an apt description of his personality.
He is survived by a wife (Maria) and two children (Steven and Lesley) to whom we convey our sincerest condolences.
