One for the road

Musical farewell

Sir, – I attended a cremation ceremony recently where the deceased chose to bow out to the strains of Four Country Roads by Big Tom and the Mainliners, and the song was kind of perfect for the occasion, so much so that I would consider using it when my own time comes. I wonder what musical choices readers may have for when they face, to borrow a phrase, the final curtain? – Yours, etc,

BRIAN AHERN,

Dublin 15.
