ROBINS FUNERAL AND BARRY BOOTH

24 Feb

Robin loved daffodils. For his funeral I asked people to bring daffodils rather than expensive flowers. I had Stewart Permit taking them at the entrance to the chapel and return one to each person to put on the coffin. When the service was over. The audience left to the potato head blues and a carpet of daffodils spread all over the ground. The service was just a celebration of Robin a group of actors sang and danced “you gotta have heart” just like a show. Cryer and Johnny Dennis told comedy remembrances Kelly sang “forever young,” Barry Booth played the organ and we sang To Be A Pilgrim. Then we had a big party at the Haverstock Arms. Organised by the landlord of the pub.
