Margaret Thomson
Sadly, on Saturday 6 May 2023 (Neilston Show day), the Woodneuk family lost another member when Margaret Thomson (Morris/Buchanan) peacefully passed away at home with her family by her side.
Margaret first met William as a student in 1954 when she came to work with the dairyman at Killoch Farm for TBL Thomson. They met up again 24 years later at Neilston show and married in 2000 – William always laughed and said that he wondered how many people came into a marriage with a reference from their father-in-law.
Quickly becoming a valued member of both the family and the farm, Margaret will be remembered for her love of all animals, ceilidh music played very loudly and dancing, gardening and floral art, and her absolute elegance with outfits to suit every occasion.
Margaret’s family, Alan and Pat Morris have arranged a private cremation for immediate family as per Margaret’s wishes.
We will all miss her and hope to get a chance to raise a glass to her at the Highland show and Oban in October and hope that her many friends from throughout her life will also remember Margaret in their own way.
