Portchester Crematorium.
The Service was conducted by Lance Blake, a Franciscan Friar from The Rowans Hospice.
Celia read the following poem:-
The words of this poem reflect how the family believes Daddy would be thinking now
Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other
That we are still
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed
At the little jokes we always enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, and talk to me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without effort
Without the ghost of a shadow in it
Life means all that it ever meant
It is the same as it ever was
There is absolute unbroken continuity
What is death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind
Because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval
Somewhere very near
Just around the corner
All is well.
Nothing is past; nothing is lost
One brief moment and all will be as it was before
How we shall laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again!
by Canon Henry Scott Holland.
Lance concluded with this:-
Death is only an old door
Set in a garden wall.
On gentle hinges it gives at dusk,
When the thrushes call.
Along the lintel's green leaves beyond,
The light lies still.
Very willing and weary feet
Go over that sill.
There is nothing to trouble any heart,
Nothing to hurt at all
Death is only a quiet door
In an old wall.
