Jamie: Many thanks for posting the information about Den's funeral here, I know there are many MudCatters who would want to attend as your Grandfather was well-loved and respected. Further details will be very welcome.

Mudcatters: If you are intending to attend, it would be useful for the Family to know numbers, so if you haven't already contacted them, perhaps you could post your intention here.

Unfortunately, neither Richard nor I will be able to join you in Cornwall although we will be thinking of Den and raising a glass to him. A candle has been lit for Den at Old Keepers ever since we had the news that he had gone into hospital.
