I am sorry to announce that Robin Tedford passed away on Boxing Day, after a short illness at the age of 87.

Robin who lived in Prestwick was a well known 214 face over the years.

Robin was in the band during the WW2 years and was given the charge of looking after Donnie MacIver’s pipes while he was away during National Service.

After leaving the 214 Robin served in the Merchant Navy as an engineer for some years. He then became a draughtsman and project engineer during his later employment.

We all send our condolences to his wife of 59 years Margaret and all the rest of the family at this sad and difficult time.
