Col Robert Angus BURNS OBE, ED

Bob Burns got a fine send-off today. 
The church at Plimmerton was full, parking all round the block.  Monsignor John Carde assisted at the service and a nice turn out of the gunners – Roger Pearce, David Weston, Warwick Wright, Pat Helm, Rob Munro, (Bdr) Sir Doug Kidd, Jo Turner, Shirley Burns (in great shape at 86, apart from hips and knees), and self.  The Eulogy was given by Keith Levy, who was with Bob as a TF gunner.  A good send off for a good guy, liked by us all.
