Funeral Arrangements

I’m getting in touch to let you know the details for my dad’s funeral, you’re all welcome to attend.

It will be on Friday 27th June at 11am at Sunderland Crematorium.

There will then be a gathering at the Sunderland Fire Station from 12-4pm. After this you are all invited to join us for the fire station’s live screening of this year’s Glastonbury festival 4pm-midnight.

We would like to encourage those attending Peter’s funeral to wear a gig tshirt.

We have arranged for the funeral to be streamed so if anyone would like to attend remotely, we can pass on the details.

Scollen and wright funeral directors in Silksworth will be administrating the service.

Many thanks,

Laura, David and Ashleigh (Peter’s children)

    Can’t possibly attend, Laura, but I hope that it all goes well.

    Gig t-shirts = very appropriate.

    Thank you Laura, David, and Ashleigh.

    How can I watch from afar?

    With great sadness and condolences,

    It looks as if you’ve arranged a wonderful send off for Peter, in a venue he held so dear. I live almost 250 miles away & will be unable to attend. I would be grateful if you could forward me a link & I will join online. However, I will be with you all in spirit.

    My very best wishes,

    Bryan

    Thank you for allowing us to watch. It was extremely moving. We will not see his like again. He was much loved and will be missed by a great many people.    Peter & Linda. X In the words of Jerry Garcia…. When the last rose of summer pricks my finger And the hot sun chills me to the bone When I can’t hear the song for the singer And I can’t tell my pillow from a stone I will walk alone by the black muddy river And sing me a song of my own I will walk alone by the black muddy river And sing me a song of my own When the last bolt of sunshine hits the mountain And the stars start to splatter in the sky When the moon splits the southwest horizon With the scream of an eagle on the fly I will walk alone by the black muddy river And listen to the ripples as they moan I will walk alone by the black muddy river And sing me a song of my own Black muddy river, roll on forever I don’t care how deep or wide if you’ve got another side Roll muddy river, roll muddy river Black muddy river, roll Black muddy river, roll on forever I don’t care how deep or wide if you’ve got another side Roll muddy river, roll muddy river Black muddy river, roll When it seems like the night will last forever And there’s nothing left to do but count the years When the strings of my heart start to sever And stones fall from my eyes instead of tears I will walk alone by the black muddy river And dream me a dream of my own I will walk alone by the black muddy river And sing me a song of my own And sing me a song of my own (17) Black Muddy River – Grateful Dead – YouTube
