My cousin who lived next door to Ken Houghton sent me a mail about his funeral, I thought I would share it on here. thought you would like to hear about Ken's funeral. It was a packed house as you can imagine. Lots of men in suits who I should imagine you would have recognised as ex footballers. A black white and amber football fashioned in flowers on his coffin. The celebrant was wonderful. A lifelong City fan, but far too young to have seen Ken play. Glyn, Ken's son spoke for about twenty minutes reflecting on memories of his Dad. I think he could have spoken for an hour and still held everyone's attention. Ken went into 'Three Steps to Heaven' apparently he had been singing that in Hospital. They played Barbara Steisand's 'Forevergreen' during the service and ended with 'My Way'. All in all a lovely service for someone who's life was well lived
Sam Rivers, the bassist and backing vocalist of the US nu-metal group Limp Bizkit, has died at the age of 48, the band has said. Limp Bizkit announced the death in a social media post, describing Rivers as the band’s “heartbeat”. “Today we lost our brother. Our bandmate. Our heartbeat,” the band wrote. “Sam Rivers wasn’t just our bass player – he was pure magic. The pulse beneath every song, the calm in the chaos, the soul in the sound.
Friend of mine attended and commented what a good turn out it was. He also mentioned how good the celebrant was who conducted the service wearing a City scarf and drank the tot of vodka that was on top of Ken's coffin. Someone mentioned that Ken joined City from Rotherham along with Ian Butler for £80k, which was £75k for Ken and £5k for Ian Butler, that brought a laugh. Waggy was there, Chris Simpkin and Mick Brown. Said it was a wonderful send off to a wonderful man. UTT.
