To everyone in our communities - whether you’re celebrating, remembering, or simply taking the weekend at your own pace - we’re thinking of you this Easter.

02/04/2026

In light of recent reports regarding a funeral provider in Hull, we understand that some families may be feeling concerned or unsettled. We want to take a moment to offer reassurance to all the families we have the privilege of caring for.

At Roy Preddy Funeral Directors, dignity, respect, and professionalism are at the very heart of everything we do. Your loved ones are always treated with the utmost care, compassion, and integrity, just as we would expect for our own families.

We are proud of the trust placed in us by our community, and we never take that responsibility lightly. Our team is committed to maintaining the highest standards at every stage of the journey, ensuring your loved ones are cared for safely, respectfully, and with genuine kindness.

If you have any questions or would simply like some reassurance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We are always here for you.

Thank you for your continued trust.

Ross, Vicky, Lyn, Carol and Donna.

A big thank you to Ben from BHWH Productions for all his help today. We conducted a funeral at St James Church in Westerleigh this afternoon. The family wanted us to facilitate live streaming and photo montages as part of the service.

Easily done at our local crematoriums but slightly more challenging in a church setting. But Ben rose to the challenge and provided a brilliant service.

Thanks again Ben!

This morning we were honoured to look after the arrangements for a very special lady with a life long love of horses.

Thank you to Elaine and the team at Horse Drawn Occasions Limited for putting their best foot (and hoof!) forward for us, as always.

As we step into a new season, spring brings a sense of renewal - lighter days, small shifts, and moments that remind us that brighter times do come again. 🌼

For those who are grieving, this season can feel different. Hope doesn’t always arrive all at once, but often in steady, gentle ways: a warm day, a familiar memory, or support from the people around us. 🌿

Today, on the First Day of Spring - and the International Day of Happiness - we’re acknowledging both: the joy this season brings and the space many need to pause, reflect and find comfort in their own time.

This photo was taken by Ross at St Anne’s Church in Syston.

Today, on Mothering Sunday, we pause to remember, to give thanks, and to honour the love that never truly leaves us. 💐

This morning’s memorial service was a very special and moving occasion, and we would like to sincerely thank everyone who joined us. Your presence, kindness and shared memories helped to create a space filled with warmth, reflection and quiet support for one another. 🤍

We also held in our thoughts all those who were unable to attend, and those for whom today brings a deep sense of loss.

For anyone who could not be with us, the service was recorded and will be available to watch later in the week. We will share it here once it has been published.

Mothering Sunday can be a day of mixed emotions — love, gratitude, sadness, remembrance — but it is also a reminder that the bonds we share with our mums continue to shape and guide us every day. 🌷

Today we proudly mark International Women’s Day.

As a funeral director, we see every day the strength, compassion and quiet resilience that women carry — within families, within communities, and within our profession.

I’m especially proud of the four remarkable women who make up my team here at Roy Preddy — Vicky, Lyn, Carol and Donna. With their care, patience, professionalism and genuine kindness they support families through some of life’s most difficult days. The reassurance they give, the detail they notice, and the dignity they uphold never go unseen.

Today we celebrate not only women everywhere, but these four incredible women who make our work what it is.

Thank you for everything you do. 💜 Ross

Ross joined a packed St James Church in Westerleigh Village today as the local community came together to pay their respects to Wully Perks.

Wully was a licensed lay minister for the Yate Parish and has conducted countless funeral services for us over the years.

During the service Reverend Ian Wallace (former Minister of Yate) paid tribute to Wully and both his love of the community, his ministry and of course, his family.

Ross says “During the service Ian spoke about having been “Wully’d” on many occasions, which meant somehow Wully had convinced you do something without even realising it half the time. I too have fallen victim to that old trick!

Many times during a funeral I would find a bible reading thrust in my direction without any warning “you’re good at public speaking Ross, maybe you could read this and help save my voice!”

Before I knew it I was in the pulpit or stood at a graveside reading bible verse after verse while Wully stood there grinning!

He will be greatly missed by everyone who knew him and all the many families he helped to support over the years. Our thoughts are with his wife Mary at this difficult time.

I just hope that someone at St James Church keeps up the tradition of ending a funeral service with the story about the 102 year old vicar nicknamed “Rev Hump” - those of you who knew him, will know the story all too well”

As a new year begins, we pause to reflect on the lives remembered, the families supported, and the moments of care that mattered most.

New Year’s Day invites us to look ahead with quiet hope, while holding close the memories that shape us.

From Ross, Vicky, Lyn, Carol and Donna we wish peace and comfort to all this New Year’s Day.
