On Tuesday, my brother and I were at our Uncle Johns funeral. It was such an honour to participate, to travel in the car with our cousins, to put our hands on the coffin with them and escort it into the cremetorium and to greet people as they left to go to the hotel. I felt closer to my cousins than I have ever done before.
I loved and admired Uncle John. He was a man whos company we all enjoyed. He was a dandy and a very talented man. A true inspiration to the rest of us.
There were people at the funeral from the speakers club and those who knew him when he was starting out as an actor. It was lovely to see such a large number of people.
