Family and friends gather to pay poignant tribute to Wishaw man Philip Devine

Family, friends and neighbours gathered in Pather to remember a Wishaw man who passed away last month.

Warm tributes were paid to Philip Devine, known as Dean, last week after he died on May 26.

This week, locals gathered in Pather Park for a short tribute.

Family friend Toni Hainey said: “Considering the poor weather we had on the night, it was very well attended.

“All we wanted was for everyone to turn out and show how much he meant to everyone.”

Locals also raised over £400 in a collection on the night which will be added to an online GoFundMe page to help with the cost of Dean’s funeral.

The online total stands at more than £1,000 .
