The funeral director arrived at 9am and then my mum by taxi by 9.20am. We sat and talked about the funeral service for dad. We arranged all of the necessary details and later it was agreed that the funeral will take place at 12 noon on Monday, 4 December which will give a clear week for relatives, neighbours and friends to plan to come for the service.
