Thu, 07 Jun 2012

Fans of the late Bee Gee’s star Robin Gibb will have a chance to pay their final respects tomorrow.

The Manx born star will be buried in a private service at St Mary’s Church in Oxfordshire – close to the star’s UK home.

Before this a glass sided carriage, drawn by four horses, will pass through the town.

According to a statement released by his family it was Robin’s wish that he would say a final goodbye to fans prior to his funeral.

The singer’s music will also form part of the funeral service – the Bee Gee’s hit "I Started A Joke" will be played as will his latest composition "Don’t Cry Alone".
