Christmas isn't an easy time of the year for many. So why not join us in our annual RACK, this year we have been busy donating food parcels, visiting those who may need a friendly face, spreading support and love throughout our community.
I will also like every year since I became a funeral director light a candle on Christmas Day for all those in our care at our chapel of rest, before visiting friends and family, because that's just what we do care 365 days of the year.

Merry Christmas To All

Christmas can be really difficult when youโ€™re grieving. When youโ€™re bombarded with memories of the years before, it can be hard not to spend the day thinking of those who have died. If youโ€™re facing Christmas after a bereavement, it might help to find some special ways to remember them.

Ways to remember someone at Christmas

Remember them with decorations

Try making your friend or relative part of your day through your Christmas decorations. Some people like to light a special candle near a picture of their loved one. Or you could hang something of theirs on the Christmas tree, or hang up a decoration including their name or picture.

Buy them a present

It might feel strange but there is no reason why you shouldnโ€™t buy a present or write a card to someone who has died, if it feels right for you.

Buy yourself a present they would have wanted you to have

You are important too โ€“ itโ€™s fine to buy yourself something you know they would want you to have. If they always got you jewellery, buy yourself some jewellery. If they bought you day trips or weekend aways, plan a trip you can go on in their memory after the festive season.

Do something that they would have enjoyed

Another way to remember someone is to do something you know they would have enjoyed. You might like to get together with friends or family and watch their favourite film, or listen to some Christmas music you know they liked. Or you could go on a walk to somewhere that has meaning for you all.

Share your memories

Talking about someone who has died can be comforting. If you are meeting with friends and family at Christmas it can be a really nice time to take it in turns to share a memory or story about the person youโ€™ve lost.

Christmas can be a time to focus on memories of good times, but it can also be an intensely emotional time. Be kind to yourself and ask for help if you need it.

Not everyone can be a true funeral professional, it takes more than a tie, black shoes and a suit. This is something in life you feel compelled towards, to offer guidance, support & comfort to anyone who has lost someone at this one the most difficult of times.

I am proud to be a funeral director and business owner, as I can honestly say its a privilege to serve. I'm so very proud of my team to as without them we couldnt exceed expectations each and every day, in not only what we do, but in how we do it.
Putting people first and foremost always in everything we do.
