My dear old Mum passed away almost 4 years ago and she had a flypast at her funeral. By some amazing coincidence as we walked out of the crematorium at Norwich the red arrows passed overhead in perfect diamond formation, Mum was 102 when she died so at 103 Dame Vera must be worthy of an aerial tribute.
