Well, the funeral is over as is the gathering of the kin. It went very well, a simple short service with a piper. I had a nice chat with the piper after things were over and we were the target of everyones cameras. Everyone wanted a picture of the piper and I together. At the house later everyone was very complimentary about the kilt saying my Uncle would have loved it. In spite of the somber occasion it went very well.
