The funeral went down well. The Church was full, with the same amount outside listening on. Arthur was conveyed to his internment on a motorbike and sidecar. The wake took place in the Plas Piggot Club, Denbigh, and was well attended by all who new Arthur. Refreshments were laid on, in ample supply. A thank you to all members of the branch who attended and also a thank you to representatives of the other branches who also attended, also to the Army Cadets for putting on a fine parade of honour. RIP.
