I attended Joe Shuttleworth’s funeral today and represented the Association at that.        
I checked on our banner - still looking good with George and Walters signatures on the order of service documents next to it
For Joe, they did a great service including the Ode and Last Post as well as particular reference to his war service and time on Lancs
Very well done indeed 
And, for all you Carlton supporters, note that Joe was a big Hawks fan, so that was the song played as we walked him out, the Hawthorn Footy Club song!
Cheers 
Peter
