Thank you so much, Creativeguy, it is good to meet you.
Welcome to the forum in Jesus name,

I found a good link about funerals written by an Anglican, such a brilliant article, and yes, I would like this kind of a funeral...my son was given a 'celebration' by his wife and the theme was Star Wars. Everyone thought it was good...(I just cried)...but there we are. My son did return to the Lord in the final months of his life, and that is what matters. He was saved by grace and knew it for himself.
I Don’t Want a Celebration of Life, I Want a Burial Service

My dear son Martin's family are travelling from Bristol tomorrow, so it will be lovely to see my wonderful grandchildren and Martin's wife.
Missing my dear son, will see him again one day in heaven,

I found such a lovely web site through one of the posts on the forum,

Revelation of Heaven


It is so good to read and is a great comfort to me...
"The Apostle Paul said, “To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord (2 Cor. 5:8).”

I remember you mentioning your son was a wonderful singer.

Thought you would like this story and young man's voice.

Thank you so much for that wonderful video!
Alas, my son didn't really sing much so it was probably someone else. He did have a very good voice but never used it.

This will be the second Christmas without him, but we have wonderful memories.

just found a photo of my lovely son and my daughter, having fun together. Not too long ago,

It's always nice to come across photos you either haven't seen before or didn't remember having. Glad you found the photo
