Jeff McWilliam
 
I came home 20 minutes ago and opened up my home e-mail. I got a message from Jeff's son in law to say that Jeff had passed on.

I never met him but we corresponded on the Forum and latterly by e-mail. He was very courteous and helpful whe I wanted to know about Glengarry badges - and even other headgear !

He was a gent
RIP

I too had an email.

A very, very sad day. Deepest sympathies to his family and friends. Jeff was a lovely bloke and he will be dearly missed by all who knew him.

Rest in peace Jeff and thank you for all your help, wisdom and insight over the years we corresponded.

Sad to hear
Coincidentally my interest in acquiring Jeff's Glengarry books had been rekindled by hi s recent posts.
