Nana's Funeral

This was the service for Nana's funeral in 1973. We called her Nana. She was my Grandmother. Her real name was Delsie Warnock. Her Maiden name was Hamblen. It was held at Cairns Funeral Home. I notice that my two brothers, the two husbands of my first cousins, Susan & Linda, my first cousing Allyn and I were the Casket Bearers. I'm glad we made it to the cemetary. I think I was pretty drunk. In fact, my uncle Bruce, my Mother's brother and Nana's son, I believe never really forgave me for being drunk at my Grandmother's funeral. I'm not sure I was. It was a long time ago, but, it was at one of the times I was furthest unto my alcoholic disease, so I don't doubt that I was.
