Blue the shearer - Col Wilson

[Maureen K Clifford]

Some very sad news indeed. Blue the Shearer’s (Col Wilson) grandson Matthew took his own life. Mathew was 25 and suffering depression. He had an estranged partner and a young child. As you can imagine Blue and Pat and Megan (mother), Richard (father) and Ike (stepfather) are distraught as they try to come to grips with what to most of us is the unthinkable.
Matthew is known to most of us through his appearance in Blue’s Poem, ‘the Grandkids’ which he wrote when Matthew was but two years old amd which has stood the test of time.
All our thoughts and support go out to Blue and Pat and the family as they struggle through this difficult time.
The funeral was held in Leura last Tuesday and over 200 people attended.
