Friends gathered at the Aberdeen Club where Phil has been an active member since his arrival in Aberdeen some ten years ago to say ‘au revoir’ to these two fine members of the community. Pat and Phil have both actively featured in the various organizations of Aberdeen Town, giving vital and unstinting support to community.
