Nice way to go. I think I might write that into my will.
Thansk for sharing.

Default Beautiful gesture Hans.....

Hans.....nice that you could spare the time and vehicle. I was involved with the first orchestrating of an event like this, with a Fallen Westy in Afghanastan and to this day it still moves me to tears. Good on ya' mate! Robert

Default On another point Hans......

Not a sad moment...but a PROUD moment! And Richard...as my cousin said ( a Provincial Court Judge in Ontario Canada) Death is the final say, the last "kick at the cat".....so if you have a "will" to leave or an "epitaph" to write .....make it count! Be Remembered! Robert
