Alfred Dallaire funeral service

Tom McPherson forwarded me a fantastic video that had to be shared. His comments on it and a little background:

Something rather rare that I thought you would appreciate seeing. I found this the other day on the Alfred Dallaire (an old Montreal funeral service establishment) web site. Amazing. Filmed in 1962... and look at all those flower cars - or Quebec-type flower cars. Note the typical Quebecois roof-mounted cross on that 1962 Superior-Cadillac Royale Three-Way Landaulet. Neat stuff.

Note also the window crosses on top of the name!

Those flower cars based on convertibles are long time gone today, that quantity of flowers in Montreal is only for Italian funerals today.
