Just a couple of the photos taken at the funeral of Squadron Leader (Retd) Ferriss

Well done to everyone for the way they behaved and the standard of uniform

A particular big thank you to Sgt Marston and Cpl Perry for the way they carried out their duties as Pall Bearers

Remember what his daughter said in her message to the squadron

"If any one ever asks you, did you ever make a difference to anyones life, tell them yes, on Wednesday 15th March 2006 "
