This is what 440 years of collective service in one room looks like.

Monday’s Long Service Lunch celebrated colleagues who’ve been with us for 10+ years 🥂

Blue and red. South London and proud. A Crystal Palace scarf draped across the coffin.

For someone whose passion was written in club colours, this funeral honoured that completely.

The Order of Service carried the Palace border. The eulogy spoke about what those colours meant to him. During the service, there was a flag wave.

Not what's "normally done."
What felt right for them.
