Eric (far right)
We were all saddened to hear of the passing of Fair enthusiast Eric Richardson who played in Bo’ness & Carriden Band until he retired from playing.
Best known to me for his one liners having only played at the Fair so many times but having played at the Marches hunders o times. He must have been proud of his sons Kirk & Kenneth who both followed him to the band and along the Kirk on percussion won the Scottish Championship.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Kirk, Kenny and their families at this sad time.
We thought we would take you back to when he wrote an article for the Fair programme in 2001.
