Sir Maxwell is now back at home, he will be returning to his office duties tomorrow 🐾

I can’t thank Sunnyside Pet Cremation Services enough for their professional and caring support through the most difficult time in our lives. And thank you again to Steve Soult Limited for Sir Maxwell’s bespoke casket design. Thank you to Flowers by Lavish also. 🐾

Today we said goodbye to the much-loved
Sir Maxwell 🐾🤍

Saying goodbye to him was incredibly hard, but it was important to that his final journey reflected the love, loyalty, and comfort he gave so freely throughout his life.

As a funeral director, it felt only right that he was given the same dignity, care, and bespoke send-off that we believe everyone deserves. Sir Maxwell had his own coffin, his own moment, and a proper farewell filled with love — handled with the same dignity, care, and attention to detail that we believe every farewell deserves. Not because of what we do, but because of who he was to us: family.

This farewell was a reminder of something we hold close to our hearts — that whether you have feet or paws, every life is unique, every bond is real, and every goodbye should be treated with respect, compassion, and individuality.

Thank you,
Sir Maxwell, for the unconditional love, the companionship, and the memories we’ll carry forever. Rest peacefully, our loyal friend. You were, and always will be, deeply loved.
Run Free 🌈🐶

January 5th 2026.
Where do I begin? At the beginning would be a starting point.
13 years ago, my mother gained her angel wings.
13 years later, having to say goodbye to my soul mate, buddy,
wing dog, one of the 3 musketeers that ruled our Meadow Lane office.
Day after day the door would knock, did you know your gates open? Yes
Your dogs out?
Yes I know, is he on the corner of the building where he sits everyday? Yes.

Making this decision was the hardest thing I have done, but I know deep down it was the kindest one. Thank you for all the love, loyalty and joy you have given to me. You will always be a part of our hearts.
Sir Maxwell❤️
Run free and rest easy 🌈🐾❤️

As a new year begins, we pause to reflect on the many lives remembered and the families we were honoured to walk alongside throughout the past year. Being trusted during moments of loss is something we never take lightly, and we are deeply grateful to every family and member of our community who placed their confidence in our care.

We remain committed to offering compassionate support, dignity, and understanding whenever it is needed, taking the time to listen and to honour each life in a meaningful way.

As we look ahead, we wish you and your loved ones peace, strength, and comfort in the year to come, and we thank you sincerely for allowing us to be part of your journey.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Stinsons

While Christmas is often a time of joy, togetherness, and celebration, we understand that for many it can also be a time of reflection, remembrance, and quiet sorrow. For those missing loved ones today, our thoughts are especially with you.

We would like to gently remind our community that we are still here throughout the Christmas period. Should you need support, guidance, or simply a reassuring presence, our team remains available to help in any way we can.

Wishing you peace, comfort, and moments of warmth today.

Last week, we had the honour of guiding the funeral service for a truly remarkable man, whose legacy will be long remembered within our community.
For over 40 years, he dedicated his time and heart to leading local Scout groups, helping to shape the lives of countless young people through mentorship, adventure, and service.

His commitment to the values of Scouting—integrity, kindness, and leadership—was evident in every story shared by family, friends, and former Scouts. It was clear that he didn’t just teach these values; he lived them.

We are grateful to his family for entrusting us with such a meaningful farewell, and we extend our deepest condolences to all who knew and loved him.
May his spirit of guidance, generosity, and adventure continue to inspire those whose lives he touched.

A coffin can be so much more than something “basic.” With personalised engraving and custom touches, it can reflect the personality, passions, and story of your loved one. If you’re considering ways to make a farewell more personal, we’re here to help.

The service yesterday was a truly special celebration, filled with the strength, warmth, and spirit of Scotland. The bagpiper's melodies resonated with both sorrow and pride, creating a moment of quiet reflection for all who gathered. It was an honour to be part of shaping a farewell so full of meaning — one that celebrated memories, legacy, and the lasting bonds of love. Our thoughts are with those who continue to hold these memories close. 🕯️🧡

🌿 Why choose a local funeral director for a direct cremation?

A local funeral director offers gentle, familiar care from people who are truly part of your community. Your loved one stays close to home, looked after by a team who understands your area, your values, and the importance of treating every family with warmth and respect.

Unlike large online corporations, a local team is here beside you — not just to provide a service, but to support you with kindness when it matters most. 🧡
