I've not a clue about that - Emma said that she was finding everything a bit surreal at present - and that I can fully sympathise with - despite the fact I was running round , a bit like a headless chicken after Raymond died , it just didn't seem as if I was on the same planet as other folk .
I'll ask her - I would imagine that it will be sometime this week - and yes your suggestion that we could all pause and pay our respects would, I think, appeal to both Jo and Emma .
Emma was most insistent that she wanted us all to know that Tony had passed

Farewell Tony.
A man who to the end never took life to seriously, never complained about his lot and enjoyed life.
You will be missed.

have you any idea if Tony's Funeral has happened yet? or if not when it will be, ie date/time.
It would be nice if forum members could pause for a moment and pay their respects in their own way.
