Cats Funeral

The Cats Funeral took place last Wednesday at Wathnail Parish Church, he passed away peacefully in his sleep after a short illness. Patrick Kapengwe will be sadly missed in the town and I want to thank all of you for your messages of condolences and all of your tributes left outside the ground expressing your deep sorrow at the sad news. However knowing Patrick as I did I am certain he would have been absolutely thrilled at the turnout on Wednesday, the big names from the game who attended astonished even me, and I am not easily astonished. We had ex-managers, fellow goalkeepers, big name players and at least a couple of what I’d term true superstars of the game, men who if they were still playing now would be almost priceless. Patrick was cremated as per his wishes and I also read a short eulogy at the end of the service, afterwards most of the congregation met up at the Flag and Staff for the wake.All very respectful, even Les Sparxx of the Sunshine Coach Company and our own Darren Throttle laid off the booze as we reminisced about the Cats playing days and that great side from back then.I'd like to add a special thanks to Geoff Summers for his kind thoughts, sadly Geoff couldn't actually attend the funeral ceremony due to him having to accompany his wife on a vital sex aids trade fair in Berlin, Germany. It was disappointing that he wasn't able to make it as he and Patrick shared a special bond. You often find that with Goalkeepers and Centre Halves, they shared a kind of telepathy on the pitch, each knowing exactly where the other would position himself. The two of them were usually roomies when the side went on any trips and he was gutted not to be there, on the plus side the business had a bumper trade fair with several huge orders for dildos and the ever popular clitoral stimulator. It seems the Eurozone recession has not hit the German housewife! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
