Last week family and friends gathered at Telford Crematorium to say goodbye to a much loved lady. As the service took place during the later part of the day, the crematorium chapel was filled with candlelight. A simple, yet moving glow filled the chapel as the family said goodbye.

Anne-Marie, our civil celebrant, brought warmth and personality, to this heartfelt service.

We’re privileged to be the first funeral director in Telford to have utilised this candlelight service offered by Telford Crematorium. Thank you to their dedicated staff for compassionately facilitating this service. 🎩🕯️

On Friday 12th December, we came together at St Andrew’s Church, Church Aston, for a quiet and meaningful evening of remembrance.

We would like to share this short video, capturing gentle moments from the service, a reflection of the togetherness, care, and love felt throughout the evening as families gathered to remember those who are so deeply missed.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and trusted us with such precious memories. It was an honour to hold this time of remembrance together.

From Liam Stafford and the whole team, thank you for allowing us to walk alongside you.

Christmas is often described as a special time, filled with lights, traditions, memories, and moments of togetherness.

But we also know that for many, Christmas can feel especially hard. If you’re missing someone you love, the joy can feel quieter and the absence louder.

There’s no right or wrong way to get through this time, whether you’re celebrating, keeping things simple, or just taking it one day at a time.

We’re holding space for everyone this Christmas. For joy, for grief, and for everything in between. 💛

Sending love and gentle thoughts to all who need them.

Liam & all the team. 🎄🎩
