It was Amin Hassan’s funeral today. Amin worked as a dresser for many years at BBC Pebble Mill, and then in the Post Room at the Mailbox. Below is a post from Jo Mainwaring about the service:
“Well it may have been Black Friday [25th Nov 2016] in more ways than one, but the sun was shining and there was a very good turnout. Nice to see so many familiar old faces from all areas where Amin had worked and made friends. The service was short and sweet, with two hymns, ‘Morning Has Broken’ and ‘Jerusalem’. Amin’s niece was too emotional to give her eulogy but Rev Brian Atkins stepped in to read. Quite a few people went on to the Pavilion afterwards, but some had to return to work, eg. those taking time out from the Drama village. There are some lovely pictures of Am in the order of service which I’d like to post, if I wasn’t technologically challenged! Perhaps one of his other friends can do that. Rest in peace dear Amin, we shall miss you.”
