Grandad Bob's Funeral

We drove down to Orpington to attend Grandad Bob's funeral, which went extremely well. It was a lovely service and Louis did a really good job reading out his eulogy too. A photo book of my Grandparents was handed round at various points throughout the day too and that was a wonderful way to remember him by.

I've only been to two funerals, last one was a cremation and this was a burial. Many people commented during the wake about how few actual burials they've attended. It's the kind of thing you see all the time in the movies, but it was a bit surreal when its happening right in front of you. It's a lovely plot of land though and its comforting to know he's buried next to the church he used to sing in.
