Iain Ingram, composer of Annie McKelvie, says that Tom's bonnie singing of the song was the best version ever. Tom's passing is a sad loss to the folk and wider arts scene. He had great vision, could see potential in many projects, venues - and had the expertise to enable them to happen. He always encouraged individuals, groups like TMSA. There's loads being posted about him on various facebook pages, perhaps they can be compiled into one amazing picture of the life, achievements and contributions of Tom Laurie?
