Curious as to what would turn up if students of mine should do a google search on my name I found a salutary lesson in my web footprint. In the course of which I found a really old letter of mine that is on the Indy's letters pages. In it I was obviously commenting on an article about funerals. You'll be able to piece together what the issue was from the quote.
I then go on to tell how and offer a hypothesis about the real problem with funerals in our society. I still think I may have had a point.

As someone involved in the conducting of funerals I would be more than happy to find next-of-kin wanting to think over the event as well and as thoroughly as he does. He implies that Church of England funerals are not capable of being personal or relevant to the grief processes of next-of-kin. This is not so.
