The funeral arrangements have now been made....probably better that I copy the message from James so that you have all the info.
"Dear all friends and colleagues of Richard Gilbert,
We have now secured a funeral date of Friday 2nd of October 1pm at Worcester Crematorium. The crematorium in Worcester is not massive so please arrive in good time, unfortunately many of you will be standing but please be patient with us. The important thing is that everyone is able to attend and pay their final respects to Dad. We have given a few weeks notice to allow those of you travelling from far to make the necessary travel arrangements and we hope that by holding it on a Friday this will help.
I would personally not like to refer to it as a funeral (instead a celebration of a wonderful life) and will not be wearing a black tie but we would like you all to wear and refer to the day however you feel comfortable. His life was cut short and as such we feel it is important to welcome anybody who knew and had a friendship with Dad that would like to pay their respects, we would also welcome everyone on to the celebrations after the crematorium at a location in Worcester that we are yet to finalise. We have received so many beautiful messages from lots of people in various different parts of Dad’s life and as such it makes it incredibly difficult to know just how many people will turn up but please rest assured everyone is welcome and your support and strength is keeping us all going at the moment.
If you have a Morgan car then please bring it, even if it’s raining it would be fitting to surround Dad with the cars he loved so much and spent so many happy times in his life around.
Thanks
James. "
As soon as I get any more information, I'll let you all know.
