At D.G. Lockhart Funeral Directors we furnish our coffins by hand. The coffin is delivered as a shell by a local manufacturer. The team then fit handles, a liner, a frill, pillow, the nameplate, plumes, washers and cords (if it’s for a burial).

It’s a job normally carried out by Carl or Michael but today our Funeral Director, Rachael, dusted off the tools. Our Funeral Directors are trained in all aspects of the services we provide, it’s something we’re uniquely proud of.

A lovely little thank you card from The Initiative Community Pantry. We raised £250 from donations made at our Christmas Memorial Service which was split between the pantry and Little Inspirations ⭐️

"Dust If You Must"

I first heard this poem around two years ago at a funeral service & it was read again earlier this week. From the first time I heard it, it stuck with me and had enough power to change my priorities. Have a read and leave your thoughts...

We have our little snowflake memorial decorations available in the office for any families we served in 2025.

Rachael & Jean are manning the fort should anyone wish to pop in to collect theirs. Alternatively, send us a message and we’ll post one to you. ❄️
