Farewell to a good man


The heavens opened for Mr Farrés funeral.
Hundreds of people turned out to pay their respects;the church was full and the the street in front was also crowded with people, all with umbrellas. The bells tolled long and loud and the huge procession followed the cortege to the cemetary. It took some time for everyone to file past the family tomb and throw in a flower. There were so many floral tributes it took the undertakers nearly an hour to unload and arrange them.
In stark contast, it has been a beautiful day today, almost springlike and we paid a visit to the tomb to look at the flowers.
