I was so grateful that Marc's parents allowed fans to attend his funeral, that I wrote a letter to Marc's Mum, Phyllis, thanking her.
I had traced Marc's Uncle by using the phone book. I had spoken to him on the phone - and said that I wanted to write to Marc's Mum. He said that if I forwarded the letter to him, that he would pass the letter on.

I didn't take too many photos at the funeral - as it wasn't a photographic event.
However, I was so touched that I wanted to take some for my memories of such a sad ocassion.
In the photo above you can just about see David Bowie (in the centre of the pic in a black trilby) making his way into the chapel.

Floral tributes left to Marc.
There were flowers from Cliff Richard, Elton John and Keuth Moon.
I remember that the white lillies (left hand corner of the pic) were from Slade.

A few years after the funeral I found this pic of me in the book "Those Who Died Young".
I'm the guy with the white shirt collar's outside the leather jacket. At my feet is my Adidas school bag - I had bunked off school for the afternoon and gone to Golder's Green.
