With the family’s permission to share this photo.

Before we carried Elaine in for her service, we all got into our housecoats, as did Beverley the celebrant, just as Elaine would have loved. She was always most comfortable in her housecoat, with a warm cup of tea in hand.

It felt like the most fitting way to honour her, surrounded by love, warmth, and the little things that meant so much to her.

Stevie

(Edinburgh/Leith/Restalrig)

It is with great sadness that the family announce the passing of Stevie, peacefully on 21st March, 2026, with his loving family by his side. Stevie was a cherished and loving dad to Jenna and Siobhan, dearly loved husband of Rhona, loving brother to Kenny, devoted Grampa to Summer and Willow and a good friend to many. A celebration of Stevie’s life will take place on Wednesday 8th April, 11am, at Seafield Crematorium. Stevie was a true Hibee through and through, to honour his passion, there will be a procession from the family home address which will take Stevie through Easter Road Stadium one final time before heading to the Crematorium. The family will put on a 53-seater coach which will transport mourners from Restalrig Road, pick up time 10.20am, to travel behind the family cortege, and will return all travelling in the coach to The Hibs Club afterwards where all are welcome. If you wish to secure a seat on the coach, we ask that you contact Jenna or Siobhan directly.

Formal attire not necessary, all the family ask is that you wear a splash of green, or Hibs attire.

On retiral of service, there will be an opportunity to make a charitable donation in Stevie’s name to The Hibs Community Foundation, a grassroots organisation which supports people in the local area including foodbanks, ensuring those most vulnerable don’t go without.

We send love to those who are experiencing their first mothers day without mum. Today will be tough with all that love to give with the one person who isn't here to share it with. Why not light a candle, listen to their favourite music and remember them, and all that made them special.

We invite you to share a photo in the comments of your beautiful mum as you remember her today, gone from sight, but forever tucked away safely in your hearts. 💛

We are thinking of you all today

**nominations must be in before 19th March**

A few years ago M&F were incredibly honoured to not only have been nominated, but also go on to win "Best Funeral Director in the East" this was such a humbling moment for us. We went on last year to again be nominated, and although we didn't win anything on the night, just to get that far and be recognised was incredible.

We are absolutely blown away to find that once again we have received nominations for this years Funeral Awards. We cannot thank those who nominated us enough!

None of us here at M&F Funeral Services Ltd chose this vocation for recognition. It's a huge honour and privilege to care for your loved ones and we take great pride in that.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you ❤️

What happens now? We need your help!! We are reliant on further nominations from families we have cared for.
If you feel able to write a few words about the service you received, or an example of us going over and above for you, send it to kimberley@paramountcreative.co.uk

There are two likely categories that we could be placed in, one is for "outstanding customer service" and the other is for "the wow moment award"

Thank you once again from all of the team.
