Millport locals have hailed 'incredibly kind' Ian Catterson, 73
A sailor who died in the tugboat tragedy on the Clyde has been described as a "lovely, kind" man who cared for his mum before she passed away. Ian Catterson, 73, from Millport, was on the boat with shipmate George Taft when it capsized while assisting a cruise ship off Custom House Quay, just off the coast of Greenock, at around 3.30pm on Friday, February 24.
Emma Newton said: "It was so sad to hear the confirmation of the rumours that Ian Catterson was one of those lost in the tugboat tragedy. He was a very quiet man who was incredibly kind to my mum when she was his mum Nancy’s carer. Rest in peace." Susan Hunter said: “It was definitely a shock when I heard. I already miss him waving when out for walkies - and the Chapel will miss him greatly too. God bless him and condolences to his family and close friends. What a way to go so suddenly. Such a tragedy.”
