Farmer and Son Funeral Directors

24/07/2025

For families seeking a quiet and uncomplicated way to say goodbye, direct cremation offers a respectful and gentle option.

At Farmer & Son, we treat every person in our care with dignity and compassion. Your loved one stays with us locally at all times and we’re here to help you feel supported. Choosing a local funeral director for a direct cremation, also means you can visit your loved one in our Chapel of Rest and add special items into the coffin if you wish.

Choosing a simpler farewell doesn’t mean it’s any less meaningful and if you’d like to hold a memorial service later, we’ll be here to help with that too.

A direct cremation with Farmer & Sons is always:
✅ Local and dignified
✅ Handled with care by local people you can meet in person
✅ Accompanied by real, personal support

The Farmer family began serving Wordsley in the late 1800s. Since 1955, we’ve continued that legacy as part of J. Vernon Kendrick Funeral Directors. We are still independent and committed to the families in Wordsley, Kingswinford, Wall Heath and beyond.

Run by Dan Kendrick, Vernon Kendrick’s grandson, we remain proud of our heritage and focused on offering care that’s personal, dignified and trusted.
