Fellows Friday Fact - Did you know?

There is a moment before every funeral that most people never see.
When we gently place your loved one onto the hearse, we never walk away and leave them on their own. One of us always stays, quietly by their side, until the journey begins.

We had the honour and privilege of using the beautiful church in Boylestone, as we laid to rest a much-loved gentleman who had been part of the village for so many years. To see the church filled with people who had travelled from near and far to pay their respects was truly heart warming.

Selwyn, I know in my heart we did you proud. From your days as a director of the football team I support, to the joy of owning a winning racehorse, your life was full, rich and incredibly well-lived. It was a privilege to walk with you on this final part of your journey.

A line spoken by one of your loved ones will stay with me forever:
“You’ve carried me for all these years, now it’s time for me to carry you.”
To witness your own flesh and blood shoulder you with such love and pride was one of the most powerful moments I have seen.

When I conduct a funeral for someone known within the community, it feels especially meaningful. For people who see me in everyday life to then see the care, respect and dedication given to every family, and to hear their kind words afterwards, it truly reinforces why I do what I do.

Thank you to the family, from the bottom of my heart, for trusting us.
It was an honour to love and care for Selwyn.

Our funeral fleet is polished, prepared, and ready to serve a family with the dignity and care they deserve.
As we take our places today, we also pause to remember Armistice Day, a moment to honour those who gave so much for the lives and freedoms we hold today.

Their courage, sacrifice, and legacy are not forgotten.
At 11am, we will stand in silence.

Lest we forget. 🌹

Today, on Remembrance Sunday, we pause to honour the brave men and women who gave everything so we may live in the freedoms we have today.
We remember not only those who never returned home, but also those who came back carrying memories, wounds and experiences that stayed with them for life.

In our work, we see the lasting love, pride and stories families hold for those who served. Their courage lives on in every photograph, every tale shared, every name spoken with honour.

At 11am we will be holding them in our thoughts and our hearts.
We will remember them.
Lest we forget.

Here at Fellows Funeral Directors we had the honour of guiding a beautiful African-Caribbean funeral service for a truly remarkable lady, a loving wife, a devoted mother, and a compassionate nurse who dedicated her life to caring for others.

The warmth, strength, and unity of her family and community shone through every moment. From the vibrant colours, to the music that celebrated her heritage, to the stories shared with laughter and tears, it was a farewell filled with love, respect, and pride.

She touched many lives, both within her family and through her years of service in nursing. The care she gave to others will continue to ripple on in the kindness people show every day because of her.

To her husband, her children, and her family, thank you for trusting us to walk alongside you. It was a privilege to support you as you honoured her life, her culture, and her incredible legacy.

To have these two certificates arrive this morning and proudly displayed on our wall is something that means a great deal to us.

When you place your trust in us to look after your loved one, you deserve complete confidence in where they are resting and the standard of care they are receiving. Sadly, not all funeral directors operate to the same professional level. That is why being regulated and independently inspected is so important, not just for us, but for the families we serve.

We are proud to share that we are now accredited members of SAIF (The National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors). This means we fully adhere to their strict Code of Practice, ensuring the highest standards of care, dignity, and professionalism at all times.

While the significance of regulation may not always be apparent to those outside the profession, within the funeral sector it represents accountability, quality, trust, and it sets us apart.

We will always continue to uphold these standards, because your loved one deserves nothing less.

It’s often the little things that give me those “pinch me” moments.

Seeing both Midway Fc Sunday league teams and seeing my teammates and friends proudly representing my family funeral home fills me with so much pride and gratitude.

💗 Baby Loss Awareness Week 💗

This week, we paused to remember all the precious little ones who left this world far too soon. As funeral directors, we have the honour and heartache of walking alongside families through unimaginable loss, a loss that words can never truly heal.

Every tiny life, no matter how brief, leaves an everlasting mark on the hearts of those who loved them. 💫

To all the parents, families, and friends who carry their little angels in their hearts, please know that you are not alone. We see you, we honour your strength, and we hold you in our thoughts this week and always.

Today we had the honour of guiding a much loved Dad and Grandad with the help of a beautiful horse-drawn carriage.

Every detail reflected the love and respect his family had for him, a true gentleman whose warmth touched so many lives. As the horses gently carried him to his final journey, his family’s love surrounded him every step of the way.

We’ll always remember his words, ones he shared so often and lived by every day…

“God bless, stay safe.”

❤️ Thanking you Tuesday ❤️

Every family I meet reminds me why I do what I do, to offer compassion, dignity, and love when it’s needed most. I’m so grateful for your trust, your kind words, and the strength you show through the hardest of times.
