🎩 When we ask our loved ones about their funeral wishes, quite often we hear the words, I don’t want a funeral, just send me on my way without any fuss.

Of course you want to carry out their wishes, but you may need closure, and want to say your own goodbye.

Here at Jonathan Rust Family Funeral Directors, we want to help and guide you in making this happen.

The cremation will still be unattended, but with our elementary funerals it will give you the opportunity to hold a memorial service with a celebrant sharing beautiful memories, a chance to listen to their favourite music, and raise a glass or two.

The memorial service can be held in a venue or an outdoor space which holds a special place in your heart.

We will take care of all the arrangements for you.

Our all inclusive elementary funeral packages start from £1,995.

Even if the funeral has already taken place, we can still help you. Our memorial service only packages start from £500.

Feel free to call or pop into the office to discuss your own unique goodbye and we will help you put together the perfect farewell, whilst carrying out your loved one’s wishes 🎩

As a community, we can make a difference by choosing to shop at local independent stores instead of big chains. This will help to boost the local economy and support small business owners who often struggle to compete with larger corporations. By making a conscious effort to support our local shops, we can help to maintain the unique character and charm of Fordingbridge and ensure a thriving community for years to come. So let's come together and show our support to our local businesses!
