We
will guide you through every step of arranging the funeral of
your loved one.
The following is a list of some of the questions we will ask you
when arranging the funeral.
Is
the service to be a cremation or burial?
Where
would you like the service to be held?
Type
of service, to be conducted by religious minister, civil or
humanist?
If
the service is to be a burial, which churchyard or cemetery?
Would
you like your loved one to wear their own clothing or for
us to provide a shroud?
If
your loved one is wearing jewellery, a decision will need
to be made if it is to remain on, or to remove for a keepsake.
What
sort of music and/or hymns would you like? For further information
please click here.
Would
you like hymn sheets printed?
Would
you like us to give out name cards at the funeral? (This is
for people to write their names and a personal message on.
We would then collect the cards after the service and give
to yourselves).
Where
will you require to meet for the service? At the service or
from deceased or family home, or from our Chapel of Rest?
Do
you require a limousine(s)? (In each limousine there is room
for seven passengers).
Will
you be having family flowers and asking for donations
in lieu to a chosen charity, or flowers and donations
to give people an option or just to have flowers?
You
will need to order your flowers from a florist, either you
can ring or go into their shop and they will show you a
brochure with the different flower tributes they can do.
These will then be delivered to us two hours prior the funeral
time.
Do
you require for a death notice to be placed in either a local
or national newspaper? We can give assistance in compiling
wording.
