Hope you're all having a great Friday folks!
It's that time of the week where I introduce one of our amazing staff here at Torbay Crematorium again.
Terry Charman is a cremation and cemetery assistant here on site, and has a wealth of knowledge about the job and due to his last job, the whole industry. Not one to ever sit and relax, Terry can often be found around the outside of the building between jobs, tending our hanging baskets and flower tubs.
Terry is semi retired and only works 3 days a week at present, and we're hoping that he'll do that for a while yet as we will miss him when he goes.
In his time off, he lives with partner Mel, son Sam and Axle, the best dressed cockapoo in the south west! He loves gardening at home and long family walks. Terry is also a triple word score wizard, and regularly loves a good game of scrabble! It has been said though, that he invents words just to win.
Huge thanks to you Terry for all you do here.

It's Friday folks, so it’s time once again to meet another member of our team.
For everyone that's visited us here at torbay crematorium, you'll all have noticed how well kept all of the grounds are. We have a fantastic grounds team here that work hard to keep us looking so good, and that fine bunch is headed up by Chaz Barr.
Coming to us from working at the zoo, Chaz wanted a different sort of challenge and prides himself in helping make the settings and details perfect for your loved ones goodbyes.
Living with his partner and their rescue dog Rufus, Chaz can often be seen donning lycra and pedalling round the local area to burn off any energy he has left. When that energy has gone though, he likes nothing more than Harry Potter movies with his feet up on the couch.
Thankyou for all you do here Chaz, it's hugely appreciated.

Love our wildlife wondering around the cemetery!

🫶Meet the team🫶
Here at Westerleigh, we pride ourselves in picking the finest staff to work for us, with each one being an integral part in making your goodbyes to loved ones so special.
Over the next few weeks we'd like to introduce our fantastic team here at Torbay crematorium and let you put faces to names.
We'll start the ball rolling with our manager, Samantha Ritchie.
Coming to us from both a military and funeral director background, Sam brings a wealth of industry and life experience to the table.
Living in Brixham with her Husband, 2 boys and 2 dogs, fitness fanatic Sam can often be seen pounding the streets on a run. If you don't see her out running though, she's more than likely off abroad on a holiday as she hates the cold and much prefers a cold drink on a hot beach!
