Bikers’ farewell

The staff of Roy Quinton, Walsall, put on their thinking caps when asked by a local family to organise a fitting funeral on the tragic and untimely loss of a family member. Carol Grice, Funeral Director, said: “The deceased was a motorbike fanatic so we set about sourcing a motorbike hearse. The cortege was led by two family members who rode pillion and by many fellow motor bikers who all travelled along the road listening to the distinct sounds of ‘Guns N’ Roses’. The service was attended by over 200 mourners. The family said they were ecstatic that we had created a memorable send off and that they have received countless compliments for such a poignant tribute.”
