Fred was a great gardener in his time and, for much of his later working life he emptied cesspits, all of the ones in our village. |

Fabulous Sharron, exactly what Fred would want, no use in wasting money on something that's inappropriate, just because that's what's considered "the norm" |

I think Fred will be looking down, smiling and his presence will be felt at a tailor made celebration of his life. I love the idea of people taking away cuttings to plant in his memory xxx |

Glad you're fine Sharron, feeling that way means you know the time was right for Fred to slip off to his garden in the sky. |

Love the coffin topper idea! You could even turn the veggies into a soup to be distributed at a later date. |

You never fail to amaze me Sharron. You have come up with wonderful, original ideas for Fred's funeral. I agree wholeheartedly with what you say about not wasting money on over-priced flowers/wreaths. You even manage a touch of humour once more. |

I suppose we will have to have a hymn. |

How about a couple of verses of 'Morning has broken'? |

I like the idea but the music doesn't quite feel right in my mind on first thought. |

Respect to you Sharron for arranging such an appropriate send off for Fred, which I am sure would meet with his full approval :-) |

I don't think he will do it but I would like Fred's mate to walk in with the coffin too. |

Once again I have to smile, this time about Wheels of Fire....but, also have a lump in my throat at you mentioning The Spinning Wheel...it is a song my elderly, very frail aged uncle used to often sing to me.He used to have a wonderful voice.... |
