Funeral details : Friday 11th April - 10am at Carnegie conference centre following by Dunfermline Cemetery at 11:00am. After the Cemetery - Legends at East End Park, where everyone is welcome to join in celebrating Michael`s life. ”Buffy’s Buns are the finest in Fife”, J. Spence 2019” Reply |
| 2. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Mon 31st Mar 2025. 17:23 Rest in peace Mick. Thoughts and prayers being sent out to his friends and family. 30 years is a long time to devote ones time to the club. Let`s go and avoid relegation for the man. Hopefully he gets a minutes silence/applause. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else. Reply |

Me and dad parked behind the ground for years and Mick always looked after us making sure Dad was as close to the entrance as possible. Sad news. RIP Mick ❤️ "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply |
| 6. Author: obiwanyouknowme Date: Mon 14th Apr 2025. 14:30 Sorry to bring this thread back up. I know there were some posters from here who attended my dad’s funeral and I would like to say a massive thank you. I was also made aware that there had been some info in the match day programmes v Livingston and Hamilton. I didn’t know this and never buy a programme anyway, I was wondering if anyone had these programmes? I would be more than happy to buy them from you. If anyone can help this would be appreciated.

| 9. Author: obiwanyouknowme Date: Mon 14th Apr 2025. 16:32 Cheers Rusty - that would be amazing. I’m no entirely sure what is said in the programme. Just would like as a keepsake. If I had known I would’ve got the programmes when at the games. Reply |
| 10. Author: GG Riva Date: Mon 14th Apr 2025. 16:48 PARadise, Mon 14 Apr 15:05 Condolences for your loss. Very few programmes are sold after the day of the match in question, so I`m fairly sure you will be able to pick up a copy of each programme containing an article about your father if you pop into the club shop.  Not your average Sunday League player. Reply |
