My aunt aged 90 and her funeral was on Thursday in Liverpool have just been told by her g.daughter that the local pub sent a circular wreath with a full bottle of whiskey in centre! I love it - auntie ejoyed her little tipple! No they did not leave the whiskey in the wreath but used it to drink her health afterwards! Ann
