Our care never ends 💙
Funeral Service Arranger, Samantha Rutherford, recently carried the late Baby Hughie’s photograph with her on a family holiday to Turkey. Honouring a very special promise to his family, she set his picture free into the sea, allowing his memory to continue travelling and touching the world around us 🌊🌍.

A simple but deeply meaningful gesture, bringing comfort in knowing that although Baby Hughie is no longer with us, his memory continues to journey on and remain forever in the hearts of those who love him 💙
