Rosemary LawMrs Rosemary Wotherspoon (1957) died in hospital on 17 June 2014 after a very short illness. Rosemary studied at Teacher Training College and taught in Kennoway to start her career. However, marriage followed very soon and she became ‘a minister’s wife’, serving as Guild president in each of her husband’s charges. Her husband’s ministry took them to Ayrshire, Ladybank and then briefly to Lisbon. The serious illness of one of the children forced an early return from Lisbon and they had a short spell in Edinburgh before they moved to the Borders. Her husband’s final charge before retirement was in Coatbridge. They moved back to Cupar, where Rosemary became an active member of the Inner Wheel of Rotary. She also greatly enjoyed an Art class, gardening and travelling. Rosemary is survived by her husband, two daughters and a son.
