Stevie Chalmers Death:
Stevie Chalmers death was announced by the Celtic Football Club in a statement:
“It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Stevie Chalmers, our loving father and devoted husband to Sadie. The Celtic legend was surrounded by family when he sadly passed away early this morning (Monday, April 29).
In recent times Stevie endured the toughest of battles, but just as he approached every game in a green and white jersey, he tackled his long-term illness with much bravery and dignity.”
So sad to lose two of our legends within the space of a week.
Two men who mean so much to Celtic supporters & who gave us so much.
We think these photos capture the lifelong bond they had for one another & why we'll never forget what they did for us that afternoon in Lisbon. pic.twitter.com/hNvYt42fXU
