MCCOLL, Angus

Our sympathy and condolences to his wife Shirley and their loving children and grandchildren, their friends and the many mates who worked with Angus in our industry.

Angus came to Melbourne to work as a builders labourer and scaffolder, and represented his workmates on the BLF Executive and then as an Organiser for the Union. He served his Union and his class with determination, humour and self-sacrifice. He enjoyed the camaraderie of the industry and celebrated it through his contribution to the “Concrete Gang” radio show in its early days.

After Deregistration of the BLF, Angus found regular work difficult to find, so he and Shirley moved to country Victoria and later to WA, and finally Qld in recent years.

May he rest in peace and be fondly remembered by his family, friends and old workmates.
