ANNOUNCEMENT
Chris Piper, FDT Chairperson

It is with the deepest sadness that we must advise of the untimely death of our friend and colleague Chris Piper. Chris passed away peacefully on Saturday 8th August, surrounded by his family, after battling an illness for the past twelve months.
Chris was one of the founding members of the Finderne Development Trust, and our first Chairperson. Whilst he was a relative newcomer to Finderne, having lived for many years in Forres, his commitment and passion for the Trust stemmed from his love of the area. His enthusiasm to see the success of the Trust was second to none, and with his leadership we have created a Strategic Plan to develop Finderne for the members of its community. His lasting legacy will be the delivery of that plan.
We send our heartfelt condolences, thoughts and prayers to Chris’s wife Jenny, his sons Rory, Jonathan and Jamie and his other family and friends. Chris will be missed, but not forgotten.
The Board of Directors – Finderne Development Trust
