In loving memory of Reverend Douglas Greig Watson who passed peacefully away surrounded by his loving family at Hayward House on 4th December 2022 aged 92 years.

Carolynn, Beverley, Cameron and all of their families wish to say thank you for all of your very kind words, thoughts and prayers at this time.

We were so incredibly proud of our dad as we all are with our Dads, but to know that he helped other families during the difficult and happy times that we all go through eases the pain somewhat.

Dad your life was a blessing. Your memory a treasure. You are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure ❤️.

The funeral service will take place on Wednesday 18th January at 10.30 am at St Helen's Church, Burton Joyce. A piped procession will leave Willow Wong on foot at 10 am travelling via Meadow Lane to St Helen's. Those who are able and wish to join the walking procession will be very welcome.

Please wear a hint of Scotland in your attire.

Family flowers only please but any donations will go to Hayward House Hospice.
