Tributes include floral wreaths made into burner phones, heist brands and guns

MOURNERS at the funeral of a notorious armed robber said it with flowers depicting his tools of the trade - including a submachine gun he was caught with.
Flowers at the funeral of Matthew Ferry included a Mac-10 submachine gun, a balaclava and bolt cutters inspired by his life of crime.
Other wreaths included a burner phone and signage for the jewellery store he robbed of £250,000 at gunpoint as well as Rolex and Cartier watches.
The service for Ferry was held at Edinburgh's Mortonhall Crematorium before he was laid to rest at the city's Saughton cemetery after his death in prison last month.
One mourner said: "It was the most remarkable funeral I've ever been to.
"It was like something from The Sopranos"
Family members, friends and gangland figures attended the service for their "Smash n Grab friend" who had been serving 13 years at HMP Edinburgh for the armed hold-up of a Laing's jewellery store in 2015.
The 33-year-old was found dead in his cell on March 25.
A wake took place at the city's Silver Wing pub after the funeral on April 12 with a heavy "police presence though it's claimed officers knew not to get too close.
The mourner added: "Matthew Ferry had carried out a pretty well known crime.
"But he was very well liked in Edinburgh and there were hundreds at the funeral and the wake at the Silver Wing pub later.
