Our Family Are Here For Your Family...

Yesterday, Funeral Director Jessica, assisted by her Father Stuart and her Husband Kenni along with our dedicated team of Bearers attended Christchurch Priory where a touching service of thanksgiving was held for a much loved and popular local lady.

It was moving to see so many people in attendance; the chapel was full with not a seat spare. The service was filled with love and many beautiful tributes were read out by family. An incredible and personal dedication.

We feel honoured to be chosen for each and every funeral we conduct. As a family, it is important to us that we are here for you and your family, at the most difficult time.

If you need our assistance or advice we are just a phone call away.

Your words mean so much to us all.

We are honoured to have been able to support the family in their time of need.

Wishing you all a gentle weekend ahead. 🤍

When Things Get Heavy…

"I am sorry".. An unrequired apology we hear many times in our office when a family member becomes upset or tearful.

Bereavement is a heavy load to bear.

Our funeral home is a safe place for these feelings.
Please know your tears are nothing to be ashamed of and there is no need to apologise for how you are feeling 🤍
