Black Watch Friends:

Regret that Andy Fanning passed away yesterday at home in New Glasgow, NS.

Andy was a long time member of 2nd Battalion.
In recent years, although visually impaired, he was a regular at Nova Scotia Chapter’s morning coffees and he never missed the Atlantic Branch’s annual gatherings every September.
