I did not attend his funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it
My edit: sir Gareth & lady Lynette || Le Mort d’Arthur by Thomas Malory
Gareth in Le Mort d’Arthur was the Brother of Gawain, Agravaine, Gaheris and Mordred, and the fourth son of Morgause and Lot of Orkney. When he came to Camelot, both his brothers and his uncle, King Arthur, didn’t recognize him, and sir Kay called Gareth “Beaumains” (Pretty Hand) and send him to the kitchens of Camelot, where Gareth remained for one year. When lady Lynette came to Camelot to ask help for her sister, besieged by the Red Knight, he parted with her and became a valiant and famous knight. Also, Lynette was an enchantress, she could bring back to life a knight that Gareth had beheaded for two times. (I guess that Gareth wasn’t so surprised by that, because he was the son of Morgause and the nephew of Morgana, lol!)
(And yes, he is a ginger, because in my headcanon the children of Morgause are all ginger)
