Just to let everyone know we have rebranded. We are now trading as

Funeral homes from years ago didn't look very inviting. I would have had deep anxiety to set foot through that door.

I pulled at Daddy's shirt
and said "Come play with me".
Daddy turned and whispered,
"please leave me be".

I walked away and cried
and then laid upon my bed.
I sobbed as I recalled
the fun times in my head.

I waited for my Daddy,
to come and hold me tight,
that's what he used to do
to always make things right.

Daddy never came,
and my crying went unheard,
so I went back to his side
and told him I was scared.

This time when Daddy looked at me,
I saw sorrow in his eyes.
He told me that his Daddy
was now an angel in the skies.

He told me how he missed him
and wished he was still here.
He said he wanted to be alone,
in fact he made it clear.

He turned away from me
and I tugged his shirt again.
I told him I was sorry
and that I understood his pain.

At this my Daddy smiled,
and said "how can you understand?"
I said cos I too had a Daddy
who no longer holds my hand.

I told him that I missed him
and I had memories too,
but my Daddy is still living
and "Daddy, I love you".

A dignified farewell isnโ€™t about how grand it isโ€ฆ
Itโ€™s about how personal it feels ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ

At Durrant Funeral Services , our role is to truly listen... to hear every wish, every concern, every small detail that matters. Because when a family is facing one of the hardest moments of their lives, they deserve compassion, patience and understanding ๐ŸŒฟ

As a small local business ๐Ÿก, we are here for our residents and their families...not just to arrange a funeral, but to gently guide, support, and walk beside you every step of the way ๐Ÿค๐Ÿค

Those small details matter.
They turn a service into a meaningful goodbye ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ
They turn grief into remembrance.
They turn a farewell into something truly personal ๐Ÿค

Because every life is unique.
Every story deserves to be told.
And every family deserves to feel supported ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธโœจ

A beautiful but sad poem

12/02/2026

Often, what others see of our grief is just the tip of the iceberg. Grief can impact us in so many ways, including some of those listed here.
At TCF, all of our support is offered by volunteers who have experienced the devastating loss of a child or sibling. We aim to offer you a space where what's below the tip of the iceberg can be shared and spoken about with those who understand.

True ๐Ÿ–ค

11/02/2026

Applause at a funeral is a growing trend that can be quite polarising. Itโ€™s shifting from the traditional quiet moment to a more uplifting "celebration of life" approach, often used to honour the deceased or support the speakers.

While many people see it as a heartfelt, lively, and joyful way to pay tribute, some critics feel it might take the focus away from the person who has passed.

Personally, I believe that encouraging each other with applause and warm welcomes can be a wonderful thing, adding a touch of positivity to difficult moments. It is also a very positive way to collectively show our appreciation to the person who has died.
