Community Voice

Hi. My name is Jo-Ann and I live in The Greater Pilton community. I try to be as active in the community as possible and take an interest in most of what goes on. I to am well aware of the person who is being spoken about as one of the Muirhouse two. When i asked to come on to the site I wanted to mention him by name, but was asked not to, but it is obvious to all that know him who it is.

As i was coming out of Royston Wardieburn Community Centre on wedensday afternoon 29-04-06 he passed by me, i shouted to him but he did not know me, yet i have known him for ten years. He looked a shadow of the person he used to be and he looked right through me. I walked with him along the road, he hardly spoke a word to me, this is the same person who you could not get to shut up when he spoke to you.

I do not know what has been going on but what I seen  I did not like, communitys like ours cannot afford to lose good people like this,a voice for progress, and a person very easy to like.

I and a number of other people tried to visit him but he was not well enough to talk to us, I have since seen him again in the doctors surgery and i felt upset at what i saw. That is all i have to say. Thanks for letting me use the site.

Thanks Jo-Ann
