Geldof Girls Mourn Grandfather... Former Boomtown Rat and global humanitarian Bob Geldof brought his imaginatively named daughters Fifi, Peaches, Pixie and Tiger Lily home to his native Dublin yesterday to lay his father and their beloved grandfather Bob Geldof Snr to rest at a ceremony in Glasthule... Peaches Geldof, Tiger Lily Hutchence It is a sad sad day when a family member passes, but folks, we all have to go at some stage and considering Bob Geldof Snr had a very good innings and lived to the ripe old age of 96, his funeral seemed like a celebration of his life more than a completely solemn affair. As many smiles as there were tears. Pixie Geldof, Bob Geldof At the church of St. Joseph's in Glasthule yesterday Bob Geldof Snr was given a good send-off by his son and two daughters and his grandchildren... Even the sun came out to say goodbye. Pixie Geldof, Peaches Geldof Amongst those grandchildren were the famous Geldof girls: Peaches, Pixie, Fifi and Tiger Lily. Bob Geldof's long term partner Jeanne Marine was also in attendance. Bob Geldof Other mourners at the funeral included: Ali Hewson, Kevin Godley, Kathy McGuinness, Michael D. Higgins, Niall Stokes, John O'Shea, and many many more... Bob Geldof, Fifi Geldof Bob Geldof Snr, may you rest in peace. To the Geldof family, we are deeply sorry for your loss.

State – o' yiss September 01, 2010 - 11:16 Firstly, it's a disgrace that Showbiz has posted pics of a funeral. This should be withdrawn. Secondly, good on Bob for basically adopting Tiger Lily, who isn't actually his child by blood Thirdly, just shows you - no matter how much money you have - if you're working class it'll always show through - state of Bob's kids at their grandad's funeral - they look like itinerants.
