Last November, Knightswood Church in Glasgow was filled with around 100 people to mark the retirement of Revd William Macleod.
Ordained and inducted to Partick, Glasgow, in October 1976, he served the Lord there for 16 years before moving to the Isle of Skye where he ministered in Portree.
He returned to Glasgow in 2006 and passed the remainder of his pastoral ministry in Knightswood (formerly Thornwood).
