Death of Doddie Weir
It is with great sadness that we learn that Doddie Weir has passed away at the age of 52. Doddie's campaign for research into Motor Neurone Disease was the main beneficiary of our 2019 Silent Auction. Doddie did lots to help this auction and in spite of being unwell, willingly managed to come to Edinburgh for our photoshoot. He was a giant of a man, not only towering above Rotarians but with a huge personality. Our contribution has made diagnosis, therapies and hopefully a cure. He told us in 2019 his aim was to reach his 50th birthday. His tenacity was amazing. He never gave up and made every minute of this extra time count. He was an inspiration to us all.
