Sincere condolences to all of the family on your loss. We remember Uncle Ali as a part of our childhood, and as someone who always helped in his strong and gentle way.
Alister will be sadly missed. He and Jane were widely respected members of the Scottish Community of Victoria, to which they contributed so much.
On behalf of Clan MacLennan Australia I extend our sincere condolences to Alister’s family.

To have known both Alister and Jane Macleod was a privilege which my wife Trish and I were fortunate to have been in their company over many years. We toiled and enjoyed so much with our membership of the Robert Burns Club of Melbourne and the Victorian Scottish Union whilst attending so many meetings, Highland Gatherings and the Burns Statue Service in the city Gardens. “So Mote It Be’ as we bid farewell to a fine gentleman. Trish and Les Cooper.
I watched the service this morning. Well done you two on putting together a great tribute to your Dad. It was great to hear about your Dad’s travels from Scotland to Australia and how well he settled In and started life with your mum and you two. You should be really proud. See you soon. Love Jol
