Willie Scott – Ellemford Show
On behalf of Ellemford Show I would like to take this opportunity to pass on our deepest condolences to all that knew and loved Willie Scott. We were shocked and saddened to hear of his passing. He was a big part of the show for many years, especially manning the gate as people came in and being a big supporter of the terrier racing – kindly donating the ‘Taff Memorial Cup’. His memory will be sure to live on through the show.
