    Aonghas, I had the sad duty of arranging my mothers funeral last year. She had made it clear she wanted a piper and it was easy to arrange through the funeral home. I left the selection of music up to the piper and he did a great job. Certainly "Flowers of the Forest" was played and prominent but I particularly enjoyed "Towrie Burn" (I believe the same tune is also called The Black Isle). It seemed to evoke an appropriate mix of sadness in passing but celebration of a life well lived for a proud lady of 89 years.
