What was that hymn that the people were singing at the beginning of the video?

[JU8788]

Notice that Henry & Harry spent their last years helping others in healing and in speaking for Peace and forgiveness?

We should learn from the aged & the wise.

[HaNnAhBhAm]

He didn't want one. He said before he didn't want that big a fuss when he died R.I.P

@Twirly60 A state funeral has been approved for the last WWI veteran to die, and there is still one left - the only one the world - Florence Green, who was a member of the Women's Royal Air Force.

Henry

A great man who will never be forgotten.

"And in going down of the sun and in the morning we will remember them"

A great Farewell to a great man and a great life, Hopefully the children of today will see this and show that little bit more respect for the older generations for what they did for us and our country, this man deserved the full military honours he received and may he rest in peace, god bless
