He had a brilliant sense of humour
A woman gave her late husband a funeral to remember after making him take the bus to the service. Jackie Palladino wanted to bid a fond farewell to fun-loving husband Simon, who died suddenly aged 69.
"Simon always had a brilliant sense of humour." Jackie told CoventryLive. "I knew that he would have wanted his funeral to be light-hearted and would have laughed at the thought of being taken to the service on a double-decker. The bus was specifically modified for funeral use and was sourced by Jackie's daughter-in-law, Rita. Simon was a keen fisherman and was placed in a picture coffin depicting lakeside imagery. He was then transported to the ceremony on the lower deck of the bus.
"That really is the beauty of arranging such a special occasion for families, everything is personal, and you’re given the chance to organise some extraordinary services.
