Hello Lance
Thanks (on behalf of all the local jazz fratenity I'm sure) for giving a very nice, heartfelt eulogy which encapsulated Marshall's love of and career in jazz, his dry humour etc.
Roly
Thanks Roly, it was nervewracking but, ultimately, satisfying. You know what it's like having done it for Clem (Avery)- the appreciation shown by family and friends afterwards makes you feel glad that you did it.
We would like to say a huge thank you to everyone for their kind words and support which helped make yesterdays funeral of our father, Marshall bearable. We know that Marshall would have been very proud of the day and of his musician friends (pals). We would like to say a very special thank you to Lance and Brian for their help in choosing the correct 'Jazz' number and for the speech which was written and read so well. The memories that were shared helped lift the mood on the day. This Bebop web site is an excellent idea and Marshall would have loved reading all the posts that are on it. Take care and keep enjoying your music Andrew and Louise Walker.
