Dennis999's funeral is to be on 19th December at 12.15 at Margate crematorium. Ann asks that we raise a glass that day to help him on his way.The Fire brigade are providing a guard of honour and personnel to carry the coffin and the Union flag will be very prominent,so it'll be the proper formal occasion he deserves,with a bit of humour and some rock music chosen by him thrown in!!

I am so glad he will have a proper funeral. Firefighters are some of the bravest people! I will be thinking of him and of Anne. I'm so thankful he would become a Cutie and keep us all on our toes. Until we meet again Dennis -- faire bon voyage!

Thanks for telling us, Sue. I will join others in raising a glass in his honor (I may ever buy a pair of scissors too). I wonder what his favorite rock music was! God bless his family and all of his friends!!

As difficult as the funeral will be it sounds like a very beautiful and respectful way for all to say their goodbyes. Will raise a glass for Dennis

I am glad gets such a formal send-off. I'll raise a glass in his honour tomorrow and will be thinking of Anne. Scissors will forever remind me of him and his humor.

What a beautiful way to honor this special man. I know he will be sitting in heaven monitoring how many of us lift a pair of scissors as we wish him a wonderful send off. Bless Anne and his family.

I will raise a glass to him and say a prayer for his family. It was a pleasure having Dennis as part of this group. He certainly was irreplaceable. Thank you for letting us know.

The time of the service was 7:15AM my time. A cup was raised and so was a smile of remembrances of the fun times here. Not only with Dennis, but with all of you dear friends who are a very real part of my life. See you later, Dennis. ☺♥
