What I've learned about grief and loss in your 20s.

Over a year has gone by since I last sat down to write an article for Her Campus. I decided to take a step away from writing as I inherited the role of President of our chapter. But a huge shift has taken place in my life that I felt called to write once again: the loss of my grandpa.

Our Story

As your funeral director we perform a unique and indispensable role in society. It is a role part professional and we believe part vocational. We are always available in your time of need providing emotional, expert and practical support.

The experience of our sympathetic ear is all the more valuable because we are dealing with the practicalities of the funeral.

We will listen to you and your wishes and help you to decide the type of funeral that you want. We will inform you of the procedures that need to be followed and the legal forms that need to be completed.

Our experience and expertise extend beyond that required from the day to day business as we are sympathetic towards all ethnic and religious groups. We are aware of the special needs involved in supporting those who have suffered a sudden and unexpected death.
