Memorial service held in The Queen's memory

A memorial service has been held in West Lothian in memory of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

The service took place at the Kirk of Calder in Mid Calder on Friday and was attended by representatives from across West Lothian.

The Kirk of Calder’s Interim-moderator, Reverend Dr Nanda Groenewald led the service, with Reverend John Povey and Reverend Alistair Cowper of Kirknewton and East Calder also leading prayers.

West Lothian Provost, Cathy Muldoon and West Lothian Council leader, Lawrence Fitzpatrick provided readings during the service, with Lord-Lieutenant for West Lothian, Moira Niven MBE also speaking of Her Majesty’s connections and visits to the local area.

West Lothian Provost Cathy Muldoon said: “I would like to thank everyone who attended the service at Kirk of Calder as West Lothian paid its final farewell to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.

“This was an opportunity to reflect on a lifetime of service and remember with fondness, the many visits to West Lothian made by Her Majesty over the course of her reign which live long in the memory for many local residents.”
