Beautiful photo of York! ❤️

Spring over York 🌤️

A fresh angle on one of the city’s best-known landmarks. The daffodil-covered mound, the stone keep, and the Minster beyond make this feel unmistakably York.

This Mother’s Day, we take a moment to remember the wonderful women who shaped our lives — our mums, grandmas, Nanas, aunties, and all the motherly figures who filled our hearts with love. 💐

At J Rymer Funeral Directors, York , we know this day can bring both warm memories and quiet reflection. Today we honour the laughter, kindness, wisdom, and love they shared with us.

Whether you light a candle, share a story, or simply pause for a moment of remembrance, their love continues to live on in the lives they touched. 🤍

Thinking of everyone in our community remembering someone special today. 💛

This Mother’s Day, we’re inviting local families to stop by and collect a bunch of daffodils from us, to remember and honour the mums who are no longer with us. 💐

Whether you’d like to place them at a resting place, keep them at home, or give them to a little one to say “Give this to Mummy”, everyone is welcome.

Sometimes the smallest gestures help keep the biggest memories alive. 🌷

Pop in, pick up some daffodils, and take a quiet moment to remember. Limited supply, so first come, first served. Available until Friday 💐
All families are warmly welcome. 💛

With appreciation from all of us here at J Rymer Funeral Directors, York . 💜

📚Stories have a powerful way of helping us remember, reflect, and stay connected to the people who have shaped our lives.

On World Book Day, we’re honouring the books that bring comfort, spark memories, and help us navigate life’s most meaningful moments. Whether it’s a treasured favourite passed down through generations or a story that offered solace when you needed it most - today is a reminder of how words can stay with us long after the final page.

📲 We’d love to hear from you - share in the comments the book that has inspired you, comforted you, or simply stayed with you over the years.
