In Loving Memory - Mary Ross
Glasgow's March and Rally for Equal Pay held a minute's silence for all the claimants who have passed away since this long-running dispute began back in 2006/07.
Here's a Facebook post from Stefan Cross which Remembers another Glasgow claimant - Mary Ross - who worked at St Rochs primary School for many years.

Mary Ross
Worked for GCC for EST 21yr , mum retired at 63 yr of age, she wasn't happy about it as she wanted to wrk on till the retirement age of 65..but the council didn't give her and another worker the choice.
Mum was 72yrs old when she died of cancer on 6/10/16 she left behind 5 kids ..LINDA, MARY, BRENDA IAN & CATHERINE.....mum wld have bn supportive of the actions that are on going and wld have been in full support of equal pay.. I hope we get this concluded so that ppl can move on from this. It's distressing for families that have to fight on their behalf, hope we can draw a line under it so ppl can move on.... Thx
With regards Brenda Ross.
Thank you to Brenda and Tracy for sharing and our thoughts are very much with them
