We pride ourselves on going the extra mile. Recently, Carl & Paige took that quite literally as they headed to the Wirral to transfer a much loved gentlemen into our care. Blessed with a beautiful day, it was an honour to accompany him on his road north.

Our office window had a little change up with beautiful glass art inspired by our logo, made by the very talented Mary Harper.

We had a floral switch up too. We’re fortunate to have a few exceptional florists on hand to recommend to families. This little dried flower grave pot was made by lovely Claire from Barn and Bloom 🌷

We chose to encorporate lavender into our logo to reflect the calm environment we hope our office & team provide. Lavender symbolises devotion and serenity, and is used in aromatherapy to reduce stress and anxiety. The perfect sprig to represent who we are and what we endeavour to do.

Thursday night sees the Widow and Widower Group get together. They meet at The Kings Arms, at 6.30pm and very much welcome anyone who wants to attend.

They sent us this photo from a lovely night at the Ark, Kippford.

If you’d like to make contact with the group, pop us a wee message and we’ll pass on details ☕️

At D.G. Lockhart Funeral Directors we furnish our coffins by hand. The coffin is delivered as a shell by a local manufacturer. The team then fit handles, a liner, a frill, pillow, the nameplate, plumes, washers and cords (if it’s for a burial).

It’s a job normally carried out by Carl or Michael but today our Funeral Director, Rachael, dusted off the tools. Our Funeral Directors are trained in all aspects of the services we provide, it’s something we’re uniquely proud of.
