Thanks. I'll update the post I did in December. Very sad he didn't become our first centenarian duke but is still the oldest ever duke and oldest so far QVD

Richard, you did a great job with the "official" post.

Thanks but yours is the 'official' and original post of news of the duke's passing, I just wanted something fuller for when I search this site years from now!

Richard, I  happened to be listening to  television  and working on the computer when word came, so I just did the one line.  

While my post was the "original" post, I maintain yours should be the "official" post.

As there will be a smaller funeral in these times I think only the queen, their descendents and partners attending. I presume no other Mountbattens (including Lady Pamela as one of only 2 suriviving cousins), no Gloucesters, Kents, Saltouns, Fifes or other Royal Familys.

At least the Margrave of Baden and other representatives of his sisters families

Unlikely as well.

As his sisters were excluded from his wedding it would be fitting for at least one or two to be present
