Iconic Goulburn Valley broadcaster and community volunteer Rod Kilgour will be remembered during a memorial service in Mooroopna on Tuesday, August 1.

They included as a volunteer driver for Shepparton FoodShare, as a news reader for Vision Australia, the author of various historical records for sporting clubs, as a tribunal member for a number of football leagues and as co-host, with his twin brother, Don, of Shepparton’s Carols by Candlelight for 26 years in succession.
Mr Kilgour passed away after illness on July 21, aged 77.
The memorial service for Mr Kilgour will be held at Merritt Funeral Services’ chapel from 2pm on Tuesday, August 1.
A live-stream service will be available from 1.45pm on Merritt Funeral Services’ Facebook page and via its website: www.merrittfuneralservices.com.au
