Today, my family and I paid tribute to my dear Papa, whose Thanksgiving Service was held at Milton Abbey School. This week I have been preparing for the occasion with the help and co-operation of the school, led most ably by Bursar Julian Litchfield, who I cannot thank enough. Many friends of all ages attended what was a most memorable and happy occasion. I say happy because we were remembering the very full life of a remarkable man. The eulogy was delivered most poignantly by our family friend Admiral Rob Woodard, a most distinguished former RN officer. In the evening, we entertained my Mum and other family members for supper. It was time to reflect on an extraordinary day, a day that none of us will every forget.
