Everyone at East Fife was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Club Historian and Honorary Director Jim Stewart earlier this week at the age of 79.

Jim joined the board of directors in 1996, later serving as Club Secretary before being appointed an Associate Director in 2008 and later an Honorary Director in 2017.

Jim previously acted as Player Liaison Director with the youth team, edited the matchday programme which he was still regularly contributing to until recently and was named as the Official Club Historian in 2000.

A full obituary will appear in our matchday programme in January.
