RP: Anthony's Funeral
Who: Ben Goldstein, (Add your tags)
Where: Brookwood Cemetery (Woking, Surrey)
When: 4pm, 25 October, 2025
Summary: Anthony is laid to rest.
The ceremony was simple and short, traditional in a way he knew his father would have appreciated. They might not have attended Temple every week, but that didn't mean that the traditions weren't important. Even though the funeral was a week later than it should have been, in every other way it was fitting. And it was dark, but he hadn't even thought of the time of day when he'd planned the service. It was cold and dark, which was fitting, if not entirely the best time for a funeral.
It was almost harder than his mothers' funeral had been, because this time he was alone. His friends were here, but his Dad had been all that was left of his family. The grave was next to Mandy's, with Lavender on her other side. He'd purchased a plot for Ronan too, although there was just a headstone there. His whole family, laid to rest.
After the service, he stayed where he was for a long minute, staring at the graves. Then, he turned to greet the people who'd come to support him.
