Agnes GrayMrs Agnes Mitchell entered BBS in 1925. A housewife, who lived in Freuchie, she continued her interest in sport after leaving School. Douglas GrayDouglas Gray was appointed an associate of the Cupar legal firm, Baird & Co in 2000. Douglas attended Bell Baxter in the 1980s and completed his legal studies in Dundee. He is married and has two children. Until recently his mother was on the Guidance Staff of the school and she also taught in the Maths Department. His father, Iain, is also a Former Pupil. Ian GrayIan Gray (1945) died very suddenly on 21st November 2010. He had been ill for a long time, and ten weeks before his death he had a leg removed. He never really recovered. Ian joined the RAF in his late teens, travelled all over the world, collecting a wife on his travels, and acquiring two wonderful sons, and two beautiful daughters. He is also survived by six grandchildren and a brother, Walter, who lives near Cupar. Ian’s sons plan to take his ashes to be interred with his father; Ian always wanted to 'go home'. He often talked fondly of his time at Bell Baxter, and of his many friends from there with whom he remained in touch. Ian started his Air Force life at RAF Cranwell, in Lincolnshire, from then on he travelled far and wide. (Ed. – Ian was an avionics technician and taught electronics in third world and developing countries after he retired from the Service in 1979). He met me in Peterborough, where he was stationed nearby, and I was there on a weekend off with a friend. We ended up at the local Service pub, and when I walked in, he told his mates I was the girl he was going to marry, which he did, and we were together for 56 years, interesting years, when, as a family, we were able to go with him, and live in other countries for 2 or 3 years at a time. Our 2 sons, David and Keith, went to boarding school, Queen Victoria School in Dunblane, and from there to Stirling Uni, and Cambridge Uni for David, and London Uni for Keith. Lisa also did her Nursing degree at London Uni, but Jane was not interested in any Unis. She became a PR, and unfortunately developed M.S. I have worked for a lot of years as a welfare officer, specialising in care of the elderly and disabled, also served as a Town Councillor and Deputy Mayor. Ian was stationed in Singapore, Gibraltar, Malta, Sharjah, Dubai, Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Papua New Guinea, Saudia Arabia, Oman and some I have probably forgotten. He was discharged from Service with Rheumatoid Arthritis at 60 years of age, and for the next 16 years he was plagued by ill health. He enjoyed the times he was able to get to your reunions, but it was an effort for him. Sadly, when he died so suddenly, we were not there to say our 'goodbyes'. He had been taken into care in a nursing home, and was there just 10 days. Thank you for looking after him when he was with you in these later years. An FPA committee member was present when Ian’s ashes were interred at the cemetery adjacent to St Michael’s golf course.

Fiona GreenFiona Green (1976) moved to Montreal when she married, after doing a Degree in French at Edinburgh University. There she became interested in subjects which until then had not figured - photography, running and cats. Around 2006 she and her husband moved to Texas, where her husband, Mirek, had been posted. The first two of Fiona's new interests merged, and she has recently published a whole ‘cat-a-ologue’ entitled ‘Mewsings, Exploring the Feline Mystique’, with one of her own cats figuring on the cover. For a number of years she has provided photographs for the annual calendar of the Montreal SPCA calendars. Her enthusiasm for running has led to her winning a number of trophies ranging in distance from 5 km to the half marathon. As Fiona regarded Art as her worst subject at School and she hated sports, it just goes to show! Never say never!
