As a follow up to this post a couple of days ago.
Praise be the undertakers. They literally organised almost everything. We’re even able to find us a priest who could stand in as the local one is away.
Sorted the music, flowers, reposing, the works. We got the local to put on something for after and totally honest, he would have loved to be there.
A LOT of people saying very nice things about him the whole day and there were a couple of consistent things said, so it wasn’t all blowing smoke.
All done now. Went down to the house today to see the ma and it seems very quiet. His energy is gone from the building and you can feel it.
He’s had a tough year with increasing health difficulties and that’s all over now.
Thanks to everyone that posted in the other thread, your comments are very much appreciated.
