WILLIAMSON, Duncan

Born 16 December 1930, Armadale, Scotland. Son of Duncan & Wilhelmina (nee Boyd). Brother of William, Jessie, Bob, Mary, Mina & George (all dec). Husband of Gretta (dec) and cherished Dad of Evelyn & Myra. Loved poppa of Gassune, Zinedeen & Rosie. Last of his generation, Dad at 92 danced his last jig on 5 March 2023, he went out fighting. Plasterer by trade, passionate footballer and above all a perfectionist. All you asked of us was to do our best. We intend to continue to. You were determined, patient, kind and a proud Scotsman. Known affectionately by his siblings as an “aggravating wee laddie”. We love you now and always Dad, we will desperately miss that cheeky grin and those sparkly blue eyes.
Had we never lov’d sae kindly,
Had we never lov’d sae blindly,
Never met -- or never parted --
We had ne’er been
broken-hearted.
There will be an informal gathering at the Greenwood Chapel, Hamilton Park Crematorium, Newstead, on Wednesday 8 March, at 11.00am. All welcome. Any messages to 404 Ulster Street, Hamilton 3200.
"For auld lang syne, my dear

For auld lang syne

We’ll drink a cup of
kindness yet

For the sake of auld
lang syne"
