BIGGA is saddened to announce the death of Life Member and former chairperson Patrick 'Paddy' McCarron, who passed away peacefully on 4 November 2026, aged 89.
Paddy will be remembered for his support for fellow greenkeepers and belief in training and education.
Paddy became BIGGA's third chairperson in 1989, following Walter Woods and Jack McMillan. His peers spoke of Paddy as a person who had a steadying influence during those formative years, willing to pause and consider decisions carefully as the young association developed.
Away from work, Paddy was known for his sense of humour. He had a beautiful singing voice and would sing favourite songs to his daughters and other children in the family as they drifted off to sleep. Our thoughts are with Paddy's family and friends.
