Hundreds pay tribute to young racing driver Keir Millar
ByThe Courier Reporter
Hundreds of people packed a church to say farewell to young racing driver Keir Millar.
The youngster was injured in an accident at a racing track in Lochgelly on May 9 and died in hospital two days later.
It was standing room only in Lochmaben Church near Lockerbie, where a service was held to celebrate his life.
Painted on the small coffin was a chequered flag along with a picture of Keir and his racing car.
And a framed photograph of the 11-year-old along with one of his trophies was carried out as his coffin was taken to the waiting hearse.
After the short service people left the church in silence, before lining the streets around the hearse to watch it make its way to the cemetery. Tearful friends and family hugged each other as they watched the vehicle departing and started to make their way to the cemetery.
