A great era in our clan history has come to an end with the passing of Baron Livingstone. For a good part of a century Alistair Livingstone has been the heart and soul of Highland Clan Livingstone and a leader to Livingstones worldwide. Our old Chief is gone but his memory endures on Lismore evermore. His kindness and hospitality to those who visited Bachuil will be remembered for years to come. Niall and family are in our thoughts and prayers. Farewell
