Reg & June Pitcairn - A Testament of Resilience in the Face of Adversity

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this poignant print captured by Thornton from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to February 1985 in Kirkcaldy. The image features a couple, Reg and June Pitcairn, whose faces tell stories of hard work and determination. Reg Pitcairn, a face worker at Frances & Seafield collieries for an impressive 29 years, stands tall with his arms crossed over his chest. Behind those glasses lies the wisdom gained from countless hours spent underground in the mines. His wife June stands beside him, her hand gently resting on his shoulder - a symbol of unwavering support. The timing of this photograph is significant as it captures Reg's reaction following the announcement to close Frances Colliery. The lines etched on their faces reflect both concern and resilience as they face an uncertain future together. This image serves as a reminder of the mining industry's impact not only on individuals like Reg but also on entire families who relied on coal for their livelihoods. It encapsulates the strength and unity found within mining communities during challenging times. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, let us honor all miners who dedicated their lives to extracting coal from deep within the earth – men like Reg Pitcairn who carried out their duties with pride and perseverance despite facing constant adversity.
