It was an absolute honour to undertake the funeral arrangements for the late Dave Cornell of Poppyland Spirits.

With the kind permission of Dave’s wife, Mandy, we are proud to share how we honoured a truly well respected, loving, kind, humorous and supportive man who will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

In true Dave style, and reflecting his love of motorbikes, he made his final journey in a Harley-Davidson hearse from Motorcycle Funerals Ltd. Andy was honoured to ride the hearse, while Mandy travelled as pillion — a deeply personal and touching tribute. Leading the way was Jerry, also riding a Harley-Davidson, guiding Dave on his final journey.

Dave’s personality shone through in every detail. A pair of his favourite Converse trainers rested proudly on top of his coffin, and in tribute to his beloved QPR Football Club, blue and white ribbons adorned the handles.

A truly fitting farewell for a remarkable man. Ride free, Dave.

A huge thank you to our amazing community for supporting our North Norfolk Foodbank collection 💛.

In the lead up to Christmas, we donated 38kgs of essential items and were so grateful to receive a lovely thank you from the Foodbank.

Our donation box was emptied again last week and we are on a mission to fill up again.

Your kindness is making a real difference locally — thank you for helping us we truly appreciate it.

💔 Foxs Funeral Services are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of John Virgo.

John Virgo was not only a celebrated snooker player — winning the UK Championship in 1979 — but also a beloved broadcaster and commentator whose voice became synonymous with the sport for generations. He was a familiar presence on BBC snooker coverage and endeared himself to millions with his passion, humour and iconic catchphrase “Where’s the cue ball going?”
Many will also remember him as co-host of the popular BBC show Big Break, where his warm personality and trick-shot demonstrations brought joy to audiences across the UK.
Our thoughts and sincere condolences are with his family, friends, and all who loved and admired him during this sad time. 🕊️

Grief is love that never leaves us.
It lives in memories, in quiet moments,
and in the hearts that still care deeply.
There is no right way to grieve,
only gentle days and the support we give one another.
You are not alone. You are held in care, today and always.

This week I attended a powerful and informative seminar delivered by PAPYRUS. At Fox’s Funeral Services, we are passionate about exploring how we can support this much-needed charity and the vital work they do in prevention of young su***de.

Knowing that HOPELINE247 is available 24/7 for young people who need support is incredibly important, and we are proud to be looking at ways to stand alongside PAPYRUS in their mission.

When it comes to funeral plans, it can be difficult to know where to start; what plans are available? How much do they cost? Will it be a local funeral director taking care of you? Do I have to have an Attended Service? Can I choose my own music & flowers?

If you would like some further information, or would like to make an appointment with our Funeral Planning Consultant for a no obligation appointment to find out about Dignity Funeral Plans, please feel free to either give us a call, or pop into our office. We're here to help.
