Fitting End

My late Aunt Sally was a big fan of the singer Gracie Fields and my uncle had chosen to have her namesake song ‘Sally’ played at the end of her funeral in the local crematorium.

We had given the staff a CD to play but unfortunately they didn’t select the right track, so as the curtains closed around Aunt Sally’s coffin, the quiet sadness was broken by howls of laughter as Gracie sang: Wish me luck as you wave me goodbye, cheerio, here I go on my way!

Aunt Sally would have loved it! SUBMITTED BY RACHEL HOWLETT
