Traffic at a standstill during Frank Jay's funeral in Bungay

Frank Jay's funeral service took place at Holy Trinity Church in Bungay this afternoon. 

A convoy of lorries and trucks drove through Trinity Road honking their horns to pay tribute to Mr Jay, known as Frankie, before coming to a stop on the road outside the church. 

His final journey saw his coffin on the back of a lorry and with his flowers on another in front. 

A traditional Jay and Sons cart could be seen on a trailer in the convoy.

Mr Jay's daughter Rose had described him as "humorous and cheeky" and said “Bungay has always been a big part of the Jay’s family life".

Mr Jay was born to Swaley and Annie Jay, as one of 14 children, in 1953.
