❤️🤍 Last week we had the privilege of conducting a truly special funeral service for Pauline, a wonderful lady and a much loved wife, mum, nan and friend to many. Her final journey was made even more meaningful as she was accompanied by the stunning Fred and Joen, 2 gorgeous black horses who were adorned with blue/white and red/white plumes to honour both Pauline and her late husband Derek's love of football and the teams they supported - a beautiful and fitting tribute that reflected her spirit and love of life. It was a touching farewell, filled with dignity, grace, and heartfelt moments that will stay with us for a long time.
Our thoughts remain with the family and loved ones during this difficult time 💙🤍

A massive thank you to the wonderful staff at Townies Carriage masters! It’s always lovely to work with such a dedicated team!

At William Peacock’s Funeral Directors, we were honoured to support a special donation of Easter eggs to Women’s Aid in Peterborough, made in loving memory of Simone 💛❤️
This small gesture brings a little comfort and joy to women and families during what can be a very difficult time, especially over the Easter period. It is a privilege to help create tributes that not only celebrate a loved one’s life but also make a positive difference within the community.
Simone’s memory lives on through this act of kindness, spreading warmth, care, and a touch of Easter joy to those who need it most.
Our sincere thanks to everyone who helped make this possible. 🐣

This year we are collecting Easter eggs to donate to Women’s Aid, an organisation that provides a safe refuge, practical help, and emotional support to women and children experiencing hardship and crisis. They are currently supporting the family of Simone Smith who was taken far too soon, Simone was a victim of domestic abuse!
If you are able to donate an Easter egg, we would be so grateful.
It’s a simple act of kindness that can bring a little comfort and a smile during a challenging time. 💛
Donations may be dropped at our office over the coming days—thank you for helping us support this family and the amazing work of Women’s Aid.
