🕯 Winter Memorial at Whalley Abbey 🕯

We would like to sincerely thank all the families who joined us at Whalley Abbey for our Winter Memorial service.

It was a meaningful time of reflection and remembrance, and we hope that the moments shared together brought a sense of comfort and perhaps a little light and warmth, as we approach the Christmas season.

Our thoughts remain with all those remembering a loved one at this time of year.

💙 With our heartfelt thanks,
The Team

🌍Today is World Kindness Day 🌍

The day highlights good deeds in the community, focusing on the positive power and the common thread of kindness for good which binds us.
Kindness is a fundamental part of the human condition which bridges the divides of race, religion, politics, gender and location.

As funeral directors and working with like minded colleagues we strive to provide the best personal service to the families we serve and respectfully give their loved ones the ‘send off’ they deserve.
We try and honour long standing traditions including paging the hearse.
We do this in all weather conditions (as shown) in all locations- why? Because we believe it shows respect for the person who has passed.
Sadly though we are faced with more and more people not having the patience and respect for the funeral procession and have had a couple of near misses from drivers who have been impatient and sped past.
Cutting in between following cars is also happening more frequently.
I appreciate we are a little slower on the road and we can cause tail backs and we know people have busy lives and have ‘places to go - people to see’, but your patience and courtesy means the absolute world to families- genuinely it does. This is a difficult drive, the last those families will have with their loved one.
So if you do happen to find yourself in traffic behind a funeral procession, please just bare in mind what the journey means to those in front of you.
Thank you 🎩
