00:02In my beginning is my end.
00:06In succession houses rise and fall, crumble, are extended, are removed, destroyed, restored.
00:17We're in their place as an open field, or a factory, or a bypass.
00:22Old stone to new building, old timber to new fires, old fires to ashes.
00:42In Jesus' name...
00:44This is the last time.
00:45This is a stone for me.
00:52The ground is full of water and water.
00:55This is the stone for you to pray for.
00:59Now I have this stone for you to pray for.
00:59I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of the saints, the forgiveness
01:07of sins, the resurrection of the glory, and the life everlasting. Amen.
01:15As we go from this place, may we carry with us our own warm memories of Morgan.
01:21I well remember many years ago, my dear brother, very patiently, trying to teach me leg spin
01:29bowling with a tennis ball in our backyard cricket game. Never really got the hang of
01:34that. May we live our lives inspired by Morgan's example, his kindness, his strength.
01:46Let us pray. Almighty God, in our sorrow, we turn to you for comfort and for healing.
01:57We thank you for the great gift of Morgan's life and for the many ways he's touched our
02:04lives.
02:22This is the hope and light that Morgan shared with us every day. The hope and the light
02:28within us all. We now go to hear from Ryan, Morgan and Lorna's grandson, who will share
02:37with us his own memories of Morgan.
02:40Ryan?
02:44Thank you, Ian.
03:01Hi, thanks for coming.
03:12I don't know.
03:21I've never liked being in here, in the church. That's not a secret. After mum died, he always
03:29said that he would only come here for weddings and funerals. So I guess he's kind of keeping
03:33that pledge. I hope this is okay with him.
03:45Nan and I were there when he passed. It was something that happened very quickly.
03:57Morgan?
03:59Morgan?
03:59Darling, you alright?
04:04Get the aspirin. Get the aspirin. What is it, darling? Oh my God, he's in pain. Get
04:09me the aspirin. Here, darling.
04:15Morgan, what's wrong?
04:16Morgan?
04:18Morgan?
04:19Morgan?
04:21Morgan?
04:22Morgan?
04:24Morgan?
04:25Morgan?
04:28Morgan?
04:29Morgan?
04:30Morgan?
04:35Morgan?
04:37Morgan?
04:42Morgan?
04:50And that was it.
05:10So many memories have floated back
05:11from the last couple of days.
05:18Strange memories of my mom.
05:24I remember when I was younger.
05:27She used to sit with me and sing me to sleep.
05:41It wasn't always like that.
05:46It was really tough for Nan and Pop sometimes.
06:00I think we all just dealt with that a bit differently.
06:06Lately, I'm beginning to wonder
06:07if maybe Pop handled it better than the rest of us.
06:15It was always open to how people could be more hopeful.
06:20And I thought I was like that too until recently.
06:22I thought maybe I'm not.
06:27Maybe I'm not.
06:36I remember once I told him about something I'd read.
06:40That time is not a line, but a loop.
06:43And that each moment we're in is a fixed point
06:45that we travel through many times.
06:46And that's why we feel deja vu
06:48or that we've been there before
06:50or that we have certain connections to certain people.
06:55Even if we mess it up sometimes.
07:01Especially today, I hope it's true.
07:20Here's a poem that Pop loved
07:22from T.S. Eliot.
07:26In my beginning is my end.
07:28In succession, houses rise and fall.
07:32Crumble.
07:34Are extended.
07:36Are removed.
07:38Destroyed.
07:40Thanks for coming.
07:45Thanks for organising everything.
07:46You too.
07:47Appreciate it.
07:47You too.
07:48You two seconds.
07:49Excuse me.
07:56Hey.
08:00I'm so sorry for your loss.
08:04Thanks for coming.
08:09Another beautiful speech.
08:12That was a bit random, but...
08:19Brian, I should, um...
08:24Sorry, I have to...
08:25Yeah.
08:27I...
08:28Be coming to the house later?
08:31Could you?
08:35Sure.
08:59I'm asking you to stay.
09:03I'm asking you to stay.
09:06Between all these whispers, I won't go away.
09:13It's been a while since you and I woke up.
09:20It's drifting and out.
09:22We're up and down on love.
09:29I'll look the other way.
09:32I'll look the other way.
09:35And I won't be tempted by people that lead me astray.
09:41Cause it's been a while since you and I woke up.
09:49Do I settle down and show you all for good?
09:58I'm asking you to stay.
10:02Say it.
10:04Say it.
10:05Say it.
10:05Yeah, I'm just asking you to stay.
10:09Just...
10:10Can I get you anything?
10:14No.
10:15No.
10:15No.
10:16No.
10:16No.
10:20No.
10:22All the secrets that won't go away.
10:26No.
10:27Cause it's been a while since you and I woke up.
10:34So we fall in love and fuck it up for good
11:16Do you mind if I see it?
11:22Oh, yes, please, goodness.
11:24They're either all over me or trying to avoid me.
11:32Thank you for coming.
11:34I'm so sorry.
11:36Did you kill him?
11:37I'm sorry, that's not funny.
11:43It's just so sad.
11:46It would have been a lot sadder if I hadn't spent the last 50 years with him.
11:51Oh, I will miss him.
11:53But we didn't miss anything.
11:56Oh, we had a long time.
11:59Did he say that before he died, that he could see your light?
12:06Yes, he did.
12:08That's beautiful.
12:12It's very beautiful.
12:19Did you really get married after eight days?
12:21No, we did.
12:25We did.
12:28How did you know that he was the right person for you?
12:38I didn't know.
12:40I mean, we were just silly kids.
12:43It's wild.
12:44It was a bit wild, wasn't it?
12:47Oh, I don't know.
12:49We just had this...
12:53feeling.
12:57I don't think it was any one thing.
13:00It's just that...
13:04he calmed me.
13:07And I challenged him.
13:09We just sort of grew up together.
13:15And...
13:16then we got old.
13:19And we never, ever tried to change each other.
13:25Even in the hard times.
13:29There were some very hard times.
13:34Of course, there were many things we did not agree on.
13:39But we did agree on the things that really matter.
13:42And I really think that that...
13:45that is what counts.
13:54Oh, I know we might have missed out on some things,
13:56but I don't think we did.
13:58I don't think you did either.
13:59You don't think so?
14:00No, I don't think so.
14:02We had it all.
14:06Thanks, mate.
14:06Thanks for coming.
14:13Yeah, I really appreciate it.
14:15You had a fight.
14:17He was very upset.
14:20Yeah, well, it was pretty bad.
14:25Was it the last one?
14:27It's only the last one that really matters.
14:32I don't know.
14:37He really hurt you.
14:40I think he should know that.
14:47Excuse me.
14:48Yeah.
14:52Oh.
14:54Did he get off okay?
14:56He did.
14:58Good.
15:01I'll call and organise their time next week to pick up the ashes.
15:05Good.
15:07They tried to upsell us on the urn.
15:10Of course they did.
15:18Well, I'm going to make a cup of tea.
15:20Okay.
