Taking care to socially distance, people lined the route of the funeral procession. Colleagues of Malcolm and his daughter Nicola Telford, from Forth Engineering, and the Browton 7+ with their bicycles, stood along the way to Christ Church and spontaneous applause broke out when the funeral car passed by. One of the floral tributes that travelled with Malcolm in the car was a bicycle with Browton 7+ and 'Mally'. Malcolm was instrumental in getting the fundraising group together, back in 1989. Dave Woodburn, finance director from Forth Engineering, said how Mally had been a popular driver with the company and how he would be missed.
