He was very well liked locally and people were surprised and disappointed that there was going to be no funeral. So with pressure from his friends, the family organised a memorial get together at a local bar. I like to think leaving his body to medical science was Pip's way of having the last laugh!!!
for a wake, surely no one can surpass Oliver Reed's after he popped his clogs when they were filming Gladiator (one of my fav. films). The whole of his village, Churchtown - near Cork, were invited along with friends and family and apparently he had left more than 30k punt with his local publican for a wee blow-out.
A word of warning, my uncle left his body to medical science when he died. Already agreed with his partner this is what he wanted. For reasons I cannot remember, they would not accept it and she had to arrange a funeral. He died of cancer if that makes a difference. Maybe one has to fill forms in prior to ones death.
