Kenny MacPherson, Portree | |
09 February 2015 Everyone at Skye Camanachd was shocked and saddened to hear of the untimely passing of club stalwart Kenny MacPherson on Saturday 7 February 2015. News filtered through to the Skye support that Kenny had passed away during the George Michie Memorial Cup match against Lovat. He had taken unwell during the week. Kenny “Duchan” MacPherson and his brothers Andy MacPherson and Willie MacPherson feature strongly in the history of Skye Camanachd. Their mother Margaret MacPherson was Club Chieftain for a number of years. As well as being a player, Kenny was also a committee member at the club and he also took up refereeing for a period of time. He was of course also a regular on the touchline during Skye matches. Kenny’s son Ian MacPherson has come through the youth ranks at Skye and was a MacTavish Juvenile Cup winner with the club. The sympathies of everyone at Skye Camanachd are extended to Christine, Ian and the remainder of the family. Funeral arrangements will be posted as soon as they are confirmed. |
