Final farewell to Bee Gees singer Robin Gibb

FANS were expected to line the streets to pay their final respects to late Bee Gees star Robin Gibb today.

His coffin was due to be taken in a horse-drawn carriage to his funeral.

The 62-year-old singer died from kidney failure last month after fighting cancer and pneumonia and suffering from a serious bowel condition.

A service was due to take place at St Mary’s Church in Thame, Oxfordshire, close to the property in which the Bee Gees singer had lived for many years.

His family said that it was his wish to “say a final goodbye to fans and his home town of Thame”.
