Lanark’s Angela Glendinning walked marathon in memory of late husband

When popular Lanark butcher William ‘Beefy’ Glendinning died of cancer this summer, no-one would have blamed his 37-year-old widow Angela for taking a long time out to recover.

After all, she and Billy had been through some harrowing times together in his four year struggle to survive after being diagnosed with the dreaded disease.
