Robin Gibb funeral today
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 8 June 2012
A private funeral will take place for Robin Gibb today, and while the service is for friends and family only, the late Bee Gee’s coffin will be transported through Thame in Oxfordshire, his most recent home, in a glass-sided carriage drawn by four horses.
A statement from the Gibb family said that plan is based on the singer’s own wishes, telling reporters: “At his wish, [Robin] will say a final goodbye to fans and his hometown of Thame, Oxon, this Friday prior to the funeral”. A separate public memorial for Gibb, who died last month after battling with various illnesses, is planned for later in the year.
