Remembrance is not about glorifying war – its about honouring those who faced it, and learning from their legacy. It’s about understanding that peace is never permanent, but something that we all have a part in maintaining – through kindness, service and respect for one another.

At Jonathan Terry Independent Funeral Directors, our mission has always been to provide the highest level of support to the families we serve. Over the years, we've reinvested in our business to ensure we meet your needs with compassion and professionalism.

🔹 In 2008, we proudly opened our London Road office to better serve families on the eastern side of Southampton, responding to your needs directly.

🔹 In May 2022, we elevated our services with a new fleet of Mercedes hearses and limousines, ensuring your loved one’s final journey is conducted with the utmost care, dignity, and style.

Behind the scenes, we have a dedicated team of compassionate professionals who believe wholeheartedly in their vocation. Their unwavering commitment to supporting families during their time of need is the cornerstone of our reputation for excellence.

Wave of Light – October 15th

Tonight, we join families across the world in lighting a candle at 7pm for one hour — creating a continuous Wave of Light that circles the globe.

We do this to remember and honour all the precious babies who left us too soon - Though their time with us was short, their love and light remain forever in our hearts.

This day reminds us that we are not alone. It brings comfort, community, and hope to parents, families, and friends who carry the memory of a baby gone too soon.

So tonight, as we light our candles, we pause to say:
You are loved - You are remembered- You will never be forgotten.

We hold in our hearts all the families we’ve had the honour of supporting, and we remember your precious little ones with you tonight. Kindest Regards Jonathan and Victoria.
