It is with sadness that we learn of the passing of The Very Reverend Dr Sandy McDonald. Dr McDonald was Moderator of the General Assembly of The Church of Scotland 1997-98 and had served The Brigade is various roles, not least as a member in 182nd and 185th Glasgow companies. He was company Chaplain and also Battalion President in Glasgow as well as Honorary President to Glasgow and Paisley & District Battalions. At Ibrox Stadium in 1983 Dr McDonald conducted the service for the Centenary celebrations.
Dr McDonald was a strong advocate for The Brigade and his passion for young people and The BB was well-known. It will come as little surprise to those who knew him that he wore a BB badge on every jacket he wore!
We remember his family and those close to him in our thoughts and prayers.
