More than a hundred turn out for former soldier's funeral
Following a Facebook appeal, around 100 strangers have packed into St Tathan Church in the Vale of Glamorgan for the funeral of Harold Morgan, a former soldier with no known next of kin.
Welsh Guards to attend soldier's funeral after appeal
The Welsh Guards have told ITV News that representatives will be present at the funeral of a former soldier tomorrow after organisers were unable to trace his next of kin.
St Tathan's Church in the Vale of Glamorgan appealed on Facebook for anyone who knew 85-year-old Harold Morgan to come forward.
Other Facebook users, most of whom did not know Mr Morgan, then posted on the thread offering to attend as a mark of respect.
