Kenneth Warburton

Published on 12/11/2020

KENNETH WARBURTON In memory of Kenneth Warburton who died suddenly on October 10th, aged 97, in Wales. The funeral was held in Wales on 2nd of November, attended by his sisters Olwyn and Betty and their families. No more a Watch to stand, Old Sailor, You are outward bound on an ebbing tide, Eight Bells has rung, and last Watch done, Now a berth awaits you on the other side. Your Ship is anchored in God's Harbour, And your Shipmates, sailors of the Lord, Are Mustered on the deck to greet you, And pipe you as you come aboard. Her boilers with full head of steam, Cargo stowed and galley stored, Just waiting to get underway, When the last Hand comes aboard. Look sharp, that Hand is you, Old Sailor, And you'll be sailing out on Heavenly Seas, May the wind be ever at your back, Fair weather, and God speed.
