Tributes have poured in for a kind and loving grammar school teacher who "personified everything that was good about a person."
Father-of-two Matthew Gray taught history and modern studies at Musselburgh Grammar School in East Lothian. Head teacher Jodie Hannan confirmed the passing of the much loved teacher in a post on her Twitter channel on July 6.
It read: “We are incredibly sad to let you know that Mr Gray has passed away. He was the best of men, and will be terribly missed by everyone @mgsonline. He was a pleasure to know and work with. There will be a celebration of his life organised by pupils at 6pm on Tues 11 July at school.”
