James Showers, celebrant at Tom’s funeral 15th April 2023

These are the words of James Showers, celebrant at Tom’s funeral. The life of man (woman) is as the grass. He (she) flourishes like a flower of the field. But when the wind goes over it, its place shall know it no more: earth to earth, ashes to ashes - and dust to dust. Let me Go: Into the freedom of wind and sunshine we let you go. Into the dance of the stars and the planets we let you go. Into the wind's breath and the hands of the star maker we let you go. We love you; we miss you, we let you go with our dancing, our mischief, our boldness, our singing, our loving. Thank you for giving us your life!
