Gone Home: Rae Edmonds
Author: Gary Bainbridge | Date: 27-04-2011
Clyde Region was sorry to learn of the passing of Rae Edmonds last week.
Rae has been involved in Scouting for nearly 70 years in a variety of guises. She was originally the Cub Scout Leader at the 9th Glasgow Scout Group where she met her husband Eric and then she took on the challenge of ADC (Beaver Scouts) in North West 1 District.
Away from the Group, Rae was involved in supporting Glasgow Gang Show for many years and whilst she didn't hold a formal role in Scouting, she continued her support for the 9th Glasgow working with her husband Eric and daughter Ann who were both actively involved in the Group.
Her funeral took place on Friday 22 April 2011 where many of her Scouting friends were there to give thanks for her life. She will be greatly missed by many people and our thoughts are with Eric and Ann at this time.
