Only reference I can find to this song is in threads of "Master's Touch" and 'The Touch of the Cock Up Mans Hand' About a melodeon.
Only reference to In Memoriam Dave Houlden song book is in the same threads.
For a retirement dinner - all present allready know "The Master's Touch" - The Dave Houlden rendering might be the right touch of vinegar to offset the syrupy sweetness of gushing platitudes.
Sincerely,
