Lots of singing, & smiles. A life celebration, & that how it should be, in my opinion

Loved hearing the surviving Pogues members singing 'The Parting Glass' at the end of the service.
Very emotional as well when his Sister Siobhan quoted lyrics from 'Body of an American'.
"And as the sunset came to meet the evening on the hill"
"I told you I'd always love you, I always did, I always will"
