Fellows Friday Fact - Did you know?

We’re often asked what we wear when we bring a loved one into our care. Well, please see two of the bearing team to show you.

Whether your loved one passes away in the middle of the night or in hospital, we always attend in our suits. We believe it is a mark of respect to be smart at all times when caring for you and your family.

To us, being professional, presentable, and dignified is part of providing the best quality of care. We want you to feel confident that your loved one is always treated with the respect they deserve.

Its all a blur

In the early hours of this morning, Matt and the team were called to a home where a loved one had sadly passed away. In moments like these, emotions run high and everything can feel overwhelming.

Matt and Richard took the time to gently explain the process, what we would be doing, and the next steps for the family, ensuring they felt supported and informed throughout.

We always move at your pace, and we are truly grateful that you allowed us to walk alongside you during such a difficult time.

Yesterday we had the honour of caring for a family as they laid their much loved one to rest and to have the privilege to use the beautiful All Saints Church in Mickleover made it even extra special.

It is never taken lightly being entrusted with someone’s loved one in their final moments, and we feel truly privileged to support families with care, dignity and compassion at such an important time. Our thoughts remain with the family, and we hope today brought a sense of comfort and peace.

Thank you.

As 2026 starts, our care for you and your loved ones will continue to be the best possible standard.

It was a beautiful and heartfelt service, made even more special with the stunning flowers arranged in the shape of an angel, a gentle symbol of love, protection and everlasting remembrance. 🤍

As always, we are truly grateful to the family for placing their trust in us at such a difficult time. It remains a privilege to care for and support families as they honour the lives of those they love.

Thank you to Katie at Sweetpeas Florist - Burton on Trent, Swadlincote & surrounding areas for making such a beautiful tribute.

At this time of year, I am often asked whether funerals take place before Christmas or the New Year. The answer is yes. Each family’s wishes are different; some choose to wait until the New Year, while others feel it is right to gather after Christmas but before the year draws to a close. Whatever the timing, our role is to walk alongside families and ease the process in any way we can.

Today, on this quiet and chilly Monday afternoon, it is a privilege to guide a dearly loved mother and grandmother, aged 96, as she is laid to rest, marking the end of a life well lived and deeply cherished.

As Christmas approaches, I just want to take a moment to wish all the families I have had the honour of caring for a very Merry Christmas 🎄

Please remember that although our offices may be closed over the Christmas period, Matt and the team are still here for you 24/7 whenever you may need us and can be contacted on - 01332 511119.

With heartfelt thanks and warmest wishes to you and your families this Christmas.

* PLEASE SHARE *

We know how hard things can be for so many people, especially at this time of year.
As funeral directors, caring for our community is at the heart of what we do, and this Christmas we wanted to offer a little helping hand.

We have created 10 essential Christmas packages to help make things a little easier. Each bag includes milk, eggs, bread, butter, chicken, plus a bag of chocolates and sweets for the children.

If this would help you or your family, please feel free to send us a private message to arrange collection of a bag. Our office is open until 5pm today, after 5pm the bags will be left outside in the porch so they can be collected in your own time and privacy, thank you.

With love and kindness this Christmas

Last night, we were honoured to host our annual Christmas Memorial Service at Mickleover Methodist Church From the bottom of my heart, thank you to each and every one of you who took the time to attend. Together, we shared a truly meaningful evening singing carols, lighting candles, and holding a Roll of Honour to remember those we have had the privilege to care for.

My sincere thanks go to Reverend Tracey for leading the service with such compassion, Lisa Bonito reading a beautiful poem and to Ray and Annie for their wonderful help and support and finally Thomas for singing White Christmas incredibly well.

Seeing so many families I have had the honour of supporting and guiding during some of their most difficult moments truly reminds me why I do this. Opening my own funeral home remains, without doubt, one of the best decisions I have ever made.

Thank you once again for your continued trust and support, it means more than words can say.

The power of social media truly is remarkable.

To still see families I have had the honour of caring for continue to use the Letters to Heaven post box fills my heart with so much love. Equally, to be trusted by families who have not used our services, yet feel comfortable coming into our funeral home to leave a letter, is incredibly special.

The Letters to Heaven post box is available 24/7, and your time and privacy will always be respected, we will never interfere with your moments of reflection. We hope that this small gesture continues to bring comfort now and for many years to come.
