I agree with Pat. It was a very good funeral - if there is such a thing.
I was one of the "bearer" party. L-R Tony Coleman, Cliff McQueen, Stu Gregg, Pat Gerard, John Whale and Alan Price. Some 200 years of service with Bristow's between us - scary. Some of us hadn't worn uniform for many a year. Felt quite alien but I believe Heather appreciated it. Yes, there were many faces from the past and a few who weren't there who we expected too. In the morning of the funeral, we left Gatwick for Cranleigh in a hired car with 5 pilots, 2 sat-navs on board and we still got lost but found the pub opposite the church, no problem. You couldn't write a book about it - or could you..........
