It was with much sadness that I, and my Dundee Liberal Democrat friends and colleagues, learned that one of our very long-standing members, Miss Sheila Tennant, passed away on Thursday.
Sheila was a stalwart of the Liberal cause and was a a much valued and hard-working member of the Liberal Party and, later, the Liberal Democrats, over many years.
I first met Sheila in 1980 when she was a lecturer in history at the then Dundee College of Commerce and, in addition to her professional and personal interest in history, she was a long-standing member of Dundee West Church and a very valued member of Liberal International.
Sheila was greatly respected by all of us and will be very sadly missed.
