It is with great sadness that we learn of the death of George Kennedy (Chuckles). George was a drummer in the Black Watch in the 1960s, during his tenure he played at President JFKs Funeral in 1963, and on the White House Lawn.

On leaving the Black Watch “Chuckles” took up the position of Lead Tip with Perth and District Pipe Band, where he carried out the role for some 5 years. Many of you may remember George from our participation in The Black Watch Reunion March, he was the one in the motorised scooter!!

May he rest in peace
