Leggat, Graham i was Graham's dancing partner in a course which was compulsory for PEs at Jordanhill College.He was quiet and unassuming in spite of his obvious talents on the football field,He was a good tennis player too and imagine my feelings when i was drawn against him in a college table tennis tournament .Actually managed to win a few points It was about this time that he met his lovely wife Marilyn and i remember when they got engaged at the end of our training course.Sadly i too lost my husband almost a year ago He was also heavily involved in the sport of rowing and we travelled around Europe to various international competitions.i know something of what Marilyn and her family must be feeling.Two good men gone who made such a positive contribution to their respective sports
