Message from John and Catherine Fleming..... I was greatly saddened to hear the news regarding Rob, from Chris, today. Please will you accept our deepest sympathy and condolences from myself and Catherine and also from Culgaith Parish Council. We will fondly remember Rob for his BBQ skills and his conscientious service to Melmerby Gardening Club over so many years. Culgaith and Melmerby Parish Councils have lost a first class and well-respected District Councillor, Rob’s presence and contributions at meetings will be sadly missed. At such a sad time it is important to remember the good times of the past, putting the difficult last few months behind you. With the kindest of regards John and Catherine

Dear Rob although we were only in touch through Christmas cards you were still a much loved cousin ❤️ Sheila and Graham Farmer

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Rob. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
