Sad day today because it was Rob Dennis’s funeral. He’d been battling cancer for 4 years and last week he lost his battle
Today there was a funeral procession out of the village, through Wytham, town and then up to the Crematorium.
The family had asked for villagers to line the streets and at 12.30pm that’s what happened. Pissing down with rain but it didn’t put people off and there was a good turnout.
We walked behind the procession for a little of the way and then it was off and we went back to things.
Went down later and there was a display of the flowers and messages and even a box of Flakes because that was his favourite. Spoke quickly to Anne and Laura and they were very well kept together.
He was a lovely man and well liked and respected – it’s no surprise so many people lined the roads for him
As I mentioned on Facebook when his death was announced, I’ll always remember the drunken night we had at the Bamptons dancing to Beyoncé and Single Ladies – that was a very funny evening!
Gone but not forgotten as they say.
Bless him.
