Retirement event for Finlay MacRae
The photograph is courtesy of the family of George Dey. George took many forestry photographs in his forestry career and many are now shown on this web site. Check under ‘Groups’ and George Dey Collection.
Finlay, surrounded by his family, is shown being presented with a native pine wood picture from Bob Cathie (Conservator North Scotland) on the occasion of his retirement from the Forestry Commission. Always a colourful character and one who could tell a great story the follow on shots in the attached PDF show Finlay getting into his stride.
Finlay completed his time with the FC as Forest District Manager at Dingwall (Easter Ross) and he certainly was in charge of the Fort William district early in his career. Can anyone name other areas where he worked for the Commission?
