✨A little reminder this Christmas✨

Don’t forget to send a Christmas card to your loved one in heaven.

Our Letters to Heaven postbox is here for anyone who wishes to share a message, a memory or a little piece of their heart with someone they miss dearly.

Christmas can be a beautiful but emotional time and writing a card can bring comfort, connection and a moment of piece.

Our grounds and the post box are accessible 365 days a year and 24 hours a day.

I had the great honour of conducting a beautifully intimate private family funeral for a wonderful family man this morning. His lovely daughter Diane gave me these earrings when we met for me to wear today as her dad was a chocaholic! I was very touched when she also gifted me this gorgeous sea glass keepsake following the service. People’s capacity for kindness and thoughtfulness during the worst time of their lives always astounds me 🥰

I was privileged to conduct this funeral for a local bus enthusiast with Hardy's Funeral Service. It was a wonderful sight and a beautiful symbol of respect from his friends in the bus community.
