It would be good to see forummers coming along in numbers.

I don’t do funerals generally (although I will be at my father I laws funeral on Friday for Dr B), but my thoughts will be with you and your family on that day.

Would be good to see other YACFers there. Funerals are much underrated IMO - everyone only says nice things, there's usually food, and you don't have to bring a present.

Won't be coming, but I wish you and your family the best.

Jurek · « **Reply #4 on:** 23 April, 2024, 06:56:09 pm »

I plan to be there.

Sadly we will be unable to make the trip but Dez and yourselves will also be in our thoughts when we visit Greenhaven just outside Rugby on Saturday 4th to pay our respects to a dear friend who passed away recently. Family and friends are holding a little remembrance ceremony and planting an oak pole on her grave to match the one on her son's grave which is nearby.

Thanks for that, I would like to join but I'll be a bit late as I have a student booked in at 1 for a short chat.

Apologies. I’ll be on a train.

I had problems watching a funeral live stream on obitus in February 2023, and similar problems watching the playback later.

Apologies for hijack!

I’ll be thinking of you all.

Thanks for the warning, I'll give it a try and if it's terrible I'll not stress about it. I agree it's unacceptable for a funeral livestream to be poor, it MATTERS.

I think it’s an Apple/Safari/OS/Buffering problem.

Might have been resolved with updates.

I am no geek!

I am unable to be there tomorrow, Peter.

Thinking of you.

andrewc · « **Reply #12 on:** **Yesterday** at 10:29:56 pm »

I'm also unable to travel down, but will be thinking of you all.

Mrs Pingu · « **Reply #13 on:** **Yesterday** at 11:01:13 pm »

Hope it goes as well as it can.

Ruthie · « **Reply #14 on:** **Today** at 12:00:00 am »

I can’t make it. I will be thinking of you.

T42 · « **Reply #15 on:** **Today** at 07:57:38 am »

Sympathies, from afar.

Cudzoziemiec · « **Reply #16 on:** **Today** at 09:52:21 am »

And from not quite so afar.

Robh · « **Reply #17 on:** **Today** at 10:14:27 am »

Best wishes.

Ian H · « **Reply #18 on:** **Today** at 12:13:51 pm »

Hope it all goes well. Best wishes from us.

Regulator · « **Reply #19 on:** **Today** at 12:39:51 pm »

I'm sorry I can't be there. Big hugs to you, Jan and the family.

rogerzilla · « **Reply #20 on:** **Today** at 04:49:37 pm »

Nice eulogies and venue. Sleep well Dez.

perpetual dan · « **Reply #21 on:** **Today** at 05:56:39 pm »

Sorry I couldn’t be there, or watch at the time. Best wishes.

Jaded · « **Reply #22 on:** **Today** at 06:02:47 pm »

I watched a little, thoughts with all of you.

Sergeant Pluck · « **Reply #23 on:** **Today** at 06:07:37 pm »

Watched most (I found one or two of the eulogies difficult to hear).

Farewell Dez.
