Robert Burns honoured by former Inverurie residents

Two former pupils from the Inverurie Academy class of 1964 honoured national bard Robert Burns in Stirling.

Stirling Burns Club president Ian Cockshoot and club member and speaker at its dinner in 2020 Janice Hepburn (nee Edward), placed a wreath at the city's Burns statue on behalf of the group.

Ian said: "We have been friends ever since school and, along with Janice’s husband Sandy, we were all at Aberdeen University together and have remained friends ever since."

They all now live in the Stirling Area.

Janice was well known in Moray for her involvement in the arts scene and was a former Elgin-based teacher and Magistrate. Sandy was also a teacher at Elgin and Lossiemouth.
