Tributes have poured in for a local man described as a 'beautiful husband and best friend' after his recent battle with a rare illness came to an end.
Stuart Rutherford, from Bonnyrigg, Midlothian, passed away at age 56 from a very rare condition called AL Amyloidosis.
His wife, Lesley Rutherford, ran Bite Rite, a local sandwich shop for 16 years and gave it up when her husband of 30 years became ill.
