Over the weekend, Funeral Director, John Gordon, ably assisted by our newest member of staff, Emma Crerar, had the utmost privilege of overseeing the funeral service of a young Benedictine Monk, sadly taken too soon from his loving family and many friends.
The location of the service, Pluscarden Abbey, founded by King Alexander ll in 1230, and situated just outside Elgin, is the only medieval British monastery still being used for its original purpose, and as you can see from the image below, is absolutely spectacular.
Every funeral is unique, and reflects the personality, culture, religion, and wishes of the person who has passed away, and here at Gaulds, we take immense pride in facilitating those wishes to the very highest of standards.
requiescat in pace,
Brother John Aidan 🌿
