FORMER Stirling councillor Eion Martin has died aged 75.
The architect served from 1997 to 2001.
A funeral service was held Monday in Pinnaroo.
Mr Martin—who’d worked as an apprentice carpenter for his father in early state housing projects—died of mesothelioma, an asbestos-caused cancer.
His father died in his 60s from the same condition.
Veteran councillor Terry Tyzack, who’d served with Mr Martin, remembers him as “very bright and very detailed”.
“He did a lot for infirm elderly people towards the end of his life, delivering meals on wheels and other voluntary work.”
