Gillian Kirkwood writes:
It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Miss Kathleen W McNeill, MBE.
Miss McNeill died last night (11:30pm, Friday, December)8 . She was 91. She had a stroke a month ago and never recovered.
A solicitor by profession, Miss McNeill was very involved with the adminstration of golf. Kathleen was a past president (1987-88) and current honorary vice-president (since 1991) of the Ladies Golf Union.
She had also been chairman (1965-67), president (1982-85) and was a current vice-president of the Scottish Ladies Golfing Association.
Miss McNeill was also honorary life president of Renfrewshire LCGA.
Everyone in Scotland is going to miss her as she was still attending our events until very recently. We always looked forward to meeting up with her as she took such a great interest in the golf and golfers, and was such a friendly lady who put everyone at their ease.
Our sympathies go to her family and her many friends all over the world.
The funeral arrangements are 12 noon Wednesday, December 13 at Greenock Crematorium.
