A life lived for football was celebrated in Dundee with mourners from both sides of the Atlantic gathering in memory of Peter McAvoy. Humanist celebrant Brenda Reid told Tuesday’s audience in the Woodlands Hotel: “The sad irony of his life is that he was born on Saturday August 17 1991 just before kick-off time. He died on Saturday April 19 2014 just before 5pm, around the time of the final whistle in a football match,” reports The Dundee Courier
