I mainly sing, but also play Uileann pipes, and about 11 months ago i was called to an elderly neighbour who had been diagnosed with a brain tumor, and given a short time to live. His request to me was for me to play the pipes at the funeral service but not the usual u would expect.He requsted Jigs, Reels and Hornpipes, for the service, as in his own words, "If I was there in person, I'd like a bit of music to tap me foot to" I did it, to the most wonderfull reception, I made his Funeral service a unique experience, to the delight of his family & friends, While he was being lowered, I sang a-capella, his request of the parting glass. It was a perfect farewell to a lovely man, and summarised his entire outlook on life.
