Memoria South Oxfordshire Memorial Park & Crematorium

09/11/2025

Up and down the country, our sites have been carefully prepared to offer a fitting tribute to those who have fallen in conflict. 🌺

This Sunday, as people pause to reflect, we too remember the extraordinary bravery and sacrifice of so many - those who gave everything so that others could live in peace.

We will remember them.
🌹 Lest we forget.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to everyone who joined us for our Service of Commemoration on Saturday 25th October 2025 at South Oxfordshire Crematorium.
Your presence and participation made the occasion truly meaningful as we came together to reflect, remember, and honour the lives of those we hold dear.



This service also included the dedication of our ‘Tree of Remembrance’, a memorial that will be a lasting tribute within our grounds to the families we have had the privilege to serve — past, present, and future.

For those who were unable to attend or who would like to revisit the service, a recording is available to download. The link is at the end of this message.

Our sincere gratitude goes to Rev. Alison Riches and Fiona Mac, Celebrant, for the beautiful service they delivered, and to Trudi Yeatman, Celebrant, for kindly giving her time to help us on the day.

Thank you also to Ridgeway Funeral Service for providing our beautiful Order of Service.

Special thanks to Tearoom Bambi and Millets Farm for the delicious cakes they supplied, and to Fabulous Flowers for the stunning floral arrangement that graced our Chapel.

We also extend our heartfelt thanks to our colleagues across the funeral industry for your professionalism, compassion, and dedication, which make a profound difference every day.
It is a privilege to work alongside you in serving our community with such respect and integrity.

Your continued support is very much appreciated.

With gratitude,

Every life is unique. And every farewell should be too. Funerals today are no longer just about tradition, but about choice.

Whether it’s through colour, music, humour, or personal touches, a celebration of life can reflect the person you loved and the moments that made them special. From a favourite song to a meaningful photograph, or even a touch of light-heartedness, these choices bring warmth and authenticity to the service.

Funerals are for the living as much as they are for those who have passed - a chance to honour a life, share memories, and find comfort together.
💙 What better way to say goodbye than by celebrating what your loved one loved most?

Contact us to discuss your plans or talk to your local funeral director.

Choosing the right music for a funeral or celebration of life can feel overwhelming, but it’s often one of the most meaningful ways to honour a loved one. Music has the power to capture emotions, spark memories, and reflect a life well lived.

According to The Funeral Guide UK, these are some of the most requested pieces of music: from timeless classics like Canon in D and Ni**od, to modern favourites such as Angels by Robbie Williams, My Heart Will Go On by Celine Dion, and even uplifting choices like Always Look on the Bright Side of Life.

It’s a reminder that there’s no “right” choice, only the music that feels right for you and your family.

💭 We’d love to know…what song would you choose to celebrate the life of someone special?

Remembering a loved one doesn’t always need to be tied to a place - sometimes it can be found in the quiet moments at home.

The Eternal Flame Glass Oil Candle offers a unique and meaningful way to create a home memorial. Handcrafted in Somerset, each piece is made with care and can incorporate a small amount of your loved one’s ashes. The result is a beautiful, timeless tribute that becomes part of your daily life.

Available in a range of elegant colours, this candle is more than décor, it’s a lasting reminder of love, illuminating your home with warmth, memory, and peace.

Because remembrance is not only about looking back, but also about carrying love forward. 🌿
