A group of 50 Welsh boys held the fake sendoff for Keiran Cable, 20, after he went AWOL with his new 18-year-old girlfriend Jess Ferguson. Keiran thought he was going to watch the Rugby World Cup when his friends turned up with a funeral car and took him on a farewell pub crawl.
The friends said it felt like Keiran had died since he started dating the girl 18 months ago. He no longer hits the town and now ignored group texts and emails. Organizer, Ben Sullivan said: “None of us had seen him since then and he wasn’t replying to any of our group texts or mails.
A leaflet handed out to mourners read: “Thoughts are with friends of Keiran at this dark time. However they shouldn’t grieve for him but wish him luck as he continues on in his next life. Keiran has had a tough 18 months trying to keep his friendship with his friends alive but sadly the wait is now over and has floated up to the gates of heaven.
What hurts the most is that we were starved of precious time to say our last goodbyes after his relationship status was changed from ‘single’ to ‘in a relationship’. It is now time for us to finally say our last goodbyes by raising a glass for our friend Keiran.” Keiran took it in good humor and even tried out his coffin for size.
He said: “As soon as I walked into the pub I was met by about 50 boys all suited up and cheering. I was in complete shock and didn’t know what to do or say. My cheeks were aching from smiling so much. The boys made a massive effort and it was definitely a day to remember. I’m sure my girlfriend will be fine about it.”
