A caring man dedicated to his profession

Edinburgh actuary John Young, from Greenbank, has died aged 92. The Church was John's most active and long-term interest outside his profession and family and he worked at both national and local level of the Church of Scotland from 1950.

At national level he was a member of the General Finance Committee of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland, which manages the finances of the Church of Scotland as a whole, and he became its convener for four years.

At local level John was an elder of Greenbank Parish Church for around 40 years and was treasurer there for ten years.
