Jukes Funeral Services

This morning, we had the privilege of being part of the funeral service for a young gentleman who served in the 1st Battalion Irish Guards. It was a beautiful and heartfelt reflection of his life, his service, and the impact he had on others.

Our own Roy, who once served in the Coldstream Guards, wore his hat, medals, and Regimental tie in his honour—a meaningful gesture of respect from one Guardsman to another.

✨ Today marks 8 years since Jukes Funeral Services first opened its doors. ✨

Over this time, we have grown not only as a business, but as a team—and most importantly, we have had the privilege of supporting many families, both within our local communities and across the UK.

It is truly humbling to reflect on the trust placed in us. Each family we have served, and every loved one we have cared for, has been at the very heart of what we do.

Looking ahead, it feels incredible to think that in just two years we will be celebrating a decade of service. Our promise remains the same as it was on day one:
🌹 To provide care with compassion, dignity, and professionalism.
🌹 To honour every family’s wishes.
🌹 To ensure every farewell is handled with love and respect.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you to the families who have trusted us, and to the professionals we have had the honour of working alongside. It has been—and continues to be—a privilege.

Today we said goodbye to a truly special lady. The love in the Cathedral was overwhelming — from family, friends, all clergy of Lichfield Cathedral and the beautiful voices of the Cathedral Choir. She touched so many lives, and her memory will always live in the hearts of all who knew her.

Today, I would like to say a big thank you to Staffordshire Police for assisting us on a funeral today. They escorted us to the home address and it may have only been for a brief moment to help stop traffic for us to be able to return a loved one home for the final time, but it meant so much to us and so much more to the family.

Yesterday Emma conducted the service of a much loved lady, the family had gone above and beyond to personalise the funeral service. From a horse drawn hearse with a country carriage to reflect her love of horses and the countryside. The Church was filled with not only family and friends but animal friends too. She was respectfully carried into church by her family surrounded by a guard of honour of all the local dogs that knew and loved her.

When a loved one’s wishes are to have a direct cremation service, we understand that this can feel daunting and untraditional to the usual formalities of a funeral service. Our team at Solely Cremation are here to support you with all services that are available from attended and unattended cremations.

Having a direct cremation service does not mean that there isn’t the possibility of holding a celebration of your loved one’s life, such as memorial service or something more personal separately, at a time and place of your choosing.

If you would like to talk to a member of our team about the services we offer or find out more about cremation services, please visits our website: https://solelycremation.co.uk

🕊 80 Years to Reflect, 80 Years to Grieve 🕊

As we mark the 80th anniversary of VE Day today, we pause to remember a moment in history that brought both celebration and sorrow. While many cheered the end of war, countless others mourned those who never returned; those who gave everything for the freedom we hold today.

Thank you to the heroes who served, and to those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We remember you, always. 🌹
