Link to funeral

Blog Posted:6/1/2023 12:29:00 AM

Hi, it feels weird using Harry's account but he did give me permission to those who question it. he gave me access to his passwords and mail for this very reason, he also asked me to remove some of his poems, unfortunately, he didn't get the chance to tell me which ones so I will leave them for now for everyone to enjoy. We were working on a book of our poetry and he gave me an outline of those he wanted in it, so I would presume they are the ones he would want removed, but I will leave things be for now.

This is to say I have the link to his funeral if anyone would like to watch it and Sheryl, his daughter-in-law, has given permission to it being passed on if anyone wants it, but I think you will have to soup me as I don't know if blogs will accept HTML unless someone tells me different. It is open for approx 90 days and took place on 31/5 at 10 am AWST I am sorry I couldn't pass it on for the date but I was away at my son's wedding. Have you heard of Three Weddings and a Funeral, well, it has been 3 Funerals and a Wedding for me in the past 10 days. I am Mandy Tams the golden girl if anyone wants to soup for the link. Thankyou xx

Hi. Mandy. I tried to open it, but it wouldn't open. Then, I tried to find your soup mail on the list of poets to send you my email, but I didn't see it. I have asked a poet who I think has it to try to email it to me. Thank you. !

Hi Mandy, thank you so much for offering this. As Tom said, Harry was a gentleman and a fine poet, and a supportive friend. I have sent you an email request for the link. Please let us know when your collaborative book is published, I'm sure many here will be interested in obtaining a copy, myself included ~ John

The book of poetry Harry wanted me to publish may take time because his list was not complete and they may be legal ramifications. x

Hi John, our three books are already available on Amazon, they are fiction but 5-star reads. Nine Steps From The Tree, The Albury Street Masquerade, and Life Out Of Tune, available in Paperback and Ebook.

I'll always remember Harry as a gentleman and fine poet, always supportive of his fellow poets. Be a shame if his poems disappear but if it was his wish I support it. Rest In Peace Harry. Tom

- Dear Mandy ... please don't remove any of Harry's poems ... let them live on in his memory - Many thanks for all the info you have given us - He is deeply missed ... rest in peace Harry <3

She is right, Mandy. They say to remove poems that are published, but if I did that, I would remove many of my best poems from Soup and mostly I was only in vanity presses. I think it does not really matter about that rule, particularly if you are self published. But I guess you will want to abide by his wishes. I sure hope all his poems are kept up, however!!
