Sally, who has been with the company since 1998, has seen how difficult it can be for families to plan funerals. To ease this for her daughters, she has thoughtfully documented her preferences, ensuring they can honour her with assurance and peace when the time comes.

We recently had the privilege of sharing our knowledge and work practices with Chris who came over from France to join us on work experience. She is keen to find out about how we care for the deceased and to use this knowledge in her work as doula and counselor.

We are really grateful to the hard work of volunteers from Fareham and Uplands History Group for giving up their weekend to plot the graves and cremated remains plots at St Peter and Paul's Church. It will be a valuable resource for future generations.

Losing someone special is always hard. When it is against the natural order of things, such as a parent losing a child, then it just feels that bit harder.

At M Coghlan Funeral Services it is our aim to make some of the challenges surrounding grief a bit more manageable.

We are here to support grieving parents all year round, but you will be in our thoughts even more today.

Today we celebrate the 80th Anniversary of VE.

But we also remember all those who lost their lives and all those whose lives were changed in the pursuit of this victory.

We also think of all those who are still struggling with oppression, in Europe but also throughout the world.

As your local funeral director, we want to let you that National Funeral Planning Awareness Week is taking place from 23 February to 2 March 2025.

This week is dedicated to helping families understand the importance of planning ahead, so they can focus on what truly matters during difficult times. Whether it’s pre-planning your funeral or discussing options with loved ones, it’s about creating peace of mind for the future.

Together, we can make funeral planning easier for you and your family.

Starting the conversation now means your family will know exactly what you want, reducing stress and confusion in the future.

Take the first step today - start talking with your loved ones. It’s a gift of care for both you and your family.
