Yes that does thanks, can anyone give me the citation for St Paul's letter to the corinthians? Someone on a different thread mentioned it and I cannot find it.

Do you mean the passage about "Love is Patient, Love is Kind . . ."

I have found it, apparently it is more often read at weddings, do people think it would be inappropriate to read this at a funeral?

no absolutely not, i think it would be very appropriate at a funeral

That is 1 Corinthians 13 and entirely appropriate IMO.
