COOK
(Methlick)
Wilma, Linda, Sheena, Ian and the grandchildren would like to express their sincere thanks to all the relatives, friends and neighbours who joined them, both in person and by live-stream, to celebrate the long, adventure-filled life of Evelyn (Gaga), nee Skinner. We are grateful for all the kind and loving messages, cards and letters, and for the generous donations for Friends of Roxburghe House Grampian. Thank you to Roger Williams for his lovely music, to Rev Valerie Mitchell for her encouragement, planning and comforting words, to Anne Presly and Shirin Geddes for their beautiful flowers, to Louise Mackie for preparing the slide show, to all who prepared the church for us, and to the friends and grandchildren who took part and made the day so memorable, especially Finlay Geddes for his fitting tribute. We are grateful for the kindness of all who cared for Gaga, at ARI and Haddo Medical Practice, her Macmillan nurses and the amazing staff at Roxburghe House. Thanks also to Michelle Kennedy at Craig & Beverly Funeral Directors for her care and gentle advice, to Kerry’s Katering for the lovely lunch and to Alexander Dixon at 3:16 AVI for live-streaming the event.

WILSON
(Kingswells)
Joyce and Matthew would like to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended Stuart (Bob) Wilson's service on Thursday the 21st of May and joined us in celebrating his life. Your presence, kind words, cards, flowers, and support during this difficult time have meant so much to us all.

We would also like to extend our gratitude to Sean and all of the staff at Craig & Beverly Funeral Directors for their care, compassion, and professionalism throughout the arrangements and on the day itself.

Thanks to the generosity of family and friends, a total of £918 was raised in Stuart’s memory for the British Heart Foundation.

We hope everyone will continue to remember Stuart by sharing the stories, memories, and happy moments that made him so special to so many.

With thanks,
Joyce and Matthew Wilson

In a world of quick online fixes, the emotional cost can be overlooked.

You deserve a human touch, a local face and a team that handles everything with care.

Sometimes the stories can make us smile through the sadness, celebrating the life that was lived as much as the one that was lost.

Let's help you celebrate that story.

As your local SAIF independent funeral director, we don't believe in a "one size fits all” approach.

We're part of your community, and we take the time to listen to your stories as neighbours to create a farewell that feels personal, supported and true to your story.
