Callants, it is with great sadness that we have to inform you of the passing of Ex Chief Callant Dave Robb.
Dave had been ill for some time and had recently had heart surgery and seemed to be doing well.
Very sadly Irene, his wife, passed away on 4th September making his passing doubly painful for his family and friends.
As many of you know, Dave spent not only his working life but his retirement in education and service to the community, being involved with various charities including Dementia care.
He served as Chief Callant from 2009 - 2012 and continued duties on the Callants council after that.
His eloquence and musical ability have entertained us for many years at our Callants supper, Burns suppers, busking and other functions.
He embodied the true spirit of the Callants, with total commitment to the town, our club and everything we Callants hold dear.
He will be sadly missed by many but at the same time he has inspired many and that will continue.
A great man and a great Callant.
R.I.P Dave Robb
