Carrick remembered its war dead in poignant services and tributes held across the area. Royal British Legion Scotland branches in Maybole and Girvan led the homage in the two main towns. But many groups and individuals in the community joined with the ex-servicemen to pay their respects. Remembrance in Maybole began with with a Sunday service in the West Kirk, conducted by Rev Tom Bogle. Maybole Pipe Band then led a parade to the war memorial where wreaths were laid, and the service was led by Mr Bogle and Fr Jim Hayes. Pipe Major Gavin Nicol played the lament, and George Taylor recited Binyon's immortal lines of remembrance "They shall not grow old..." There was a further service at Maybole's Greenside on Monday, when the traditional Armistice Day homage was observed at the eleventh hour. Ayrshire Post November 15th 2002 |
