Good Morning Gents, a brief updates on Geoff's funeral, I have heard from Pat, Geoff's Partner, that he is being Cremated in his Lowie Polo Shirt and the Lowie Association fleece as he requested, he has also requested that anyone attending doesn't wear Mourning clothes, bright colours only. There will be a British Legion Standard in attendance and also the Norwich RNA Standard, Geoff was a member there. So all in all a decent send off for him. As mentioned above Ian is having a tot at the appropriate time, and I am also having one to wish Geoff a proper Naval farewell, hope some others will also join us in this, even so early in the day.
And lets hope he finds calm seas and gentle winds after his long illness. RIP Geoff.

From all account's Geoff's funeral went off very well, an ex Lowie S/C member, RNA RBL all attended, there was a Guard of Honour provided by Norwich RNA and RBL members with both Standards displayed, and a White Ensign on the coffin. Also a little message from Geoff was read out saying that he expected to see people " Dancing on his grave" Which is typical Geoff. Actually his ashes are to be scattered on the river Mersey as he originates from Liverpool. Once again RIP Geoff, you were one on your own.

I'm very glad that Geoff had the suitable send off from the RNA & RBL that he well deserved.
