Dorothea Logan

The family of a woman who died following a road traffic collision in Stow last week has issued a statement and photograph in tribute. ​

Ninety-five-year-old Dorothea Logan from Edinburgh was a passenger in an Audi A6 which was in collision with a VW Polo on the A7 one mile north of Stow on the afternoon of Tuesday 14 July. She passed away at Edinburgh Royal Infirmary the following day. ​

The 67-year-old female driver of the VW also sadly died, at the scene of the collision. ​

Dorothea’s family paid the following tribute – ​“Dot Logan enjoyed a long, happy and fulfilled life and the family would wish people to remember that, rather than the circumstances of her death. She was a much loved Mum, Gran and great-Gran. The family are deeply grateful to all the emergency services and to the professional and committed staff of the ERI for their outstanding care and compassion.” ​

Sergeant Brian Smith of the Road Policing Unit said: “Our sincere condolences go to both families and friends at this sad time. ​

“Enquiries into the full circumstances surrounding this collision are still ongoing, and anyone with information which can help with our enquiries is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101.” ​
