THE Argyll agricultural community was in shock after the sudden death of one of the region’s most respected industry figures.
Mid Argyll farmer Bruce Dixon, of Killinochonoch, passed away, aged 52, on Friday October 13 while selling cattle at Dalmally Auction Mart.
Mr Dixon was president of Mid Argyll Agricultural Show until 2015, and his successor in the role, Tim Lister, said: ‘This is a real tragedy. Bruce was a mainstay of the farming community in Mid Argyll. He was a very good neighbour to me and was always there with help and advice for anyone.
