DICK MacCALLUM

Some words from Ian Warburton:

Dick MacCallum died on December 24th 2004. As a fellow Scot he and I became easy friends in late 1964. Reg Andrew, Paul Dupee ( Dick's room mate ) and I helped Dick adjust to cope with his onset of sugar diabetes in 1965. When we all had too much beer, including MacCallum, we would toss a coin to see who would inject Dick with his insulin shot. It took us several weeks and a few fumbling attempts each, until we got it nearly right.

I remember him as a typical quiet Scot with a slightly wicked sense of humour . A good chap all round.

Please pass on my condolences and tell them I knew him at Malvern between 1964 and 1969.

Regards, Ian
