    Bravo!
    Being, among other things, an undertaker, a large slice of my life and energy has been consumed burying the dead. The loss of a young person is never justified as far as I'm concerned. It has become popular to personalize services with picture boards and mementos which tell the story of the life just ended. As a storyteller I see the value in this. If it was of meaning to this lad's folks [and to you as well] that you wore the kilt to honor him then I commend you. These gestures, I assure you, mean so much to parents who have to face the loss of a child..no matter how old.The service as described is one I would be proud to have directed.
