It is with great sadness I am writing to let you know of the death of former Club stalwart Jim Nicol.
His daughter informed me that Jim died suddenly on Saturday 28 June, aged 88, following a heart attack. Although I didn’t
know Jim particularly well, I’ve regularly heard members speak very fondly of him. He was an active Member of the Club
for over 40 years and was Club President in the late 1990’s. He was also a climber and a member of Tayside Mountain Rescue.
His funeral service is to be held at the East & Old Parish Church, Forfar, on Friday, July 10, at 1.15 p.m., thereafter
to Parkgrove Crematorium, Friockheim, arriving 2.30 p.m., to which all family and friends are respectfully invited. Family
flowers only please, but a donation, if desired, can be made to Tayside Mountain Rescue at the Church or the Crematorium.
Regards
Steve Wilson, President
