One time I met a man
Who only had a month to live
And I asked him if he had
Any advice that he could give

He said “I wake each morning
Knowing I am going to die
So each day must remind me
I am blessed to be alive

You see, my life’s on countdown
As each hour is unfurled
I know the clock is ticking
On my time here in this world

But what you’re overlooking
Is that it’s the same for you -
You know that I am dying
But forget that you are too

So make the most of sunshine
And go dancing in the rain
And sing a little louder
When your favourite music plays

Notice nature’s colours,
Savour everything you taste
Stop waiting for tomorrow
‘Cause you’ve got no time to waste

And could you say convincingly
That you’d have no regrets?
If just the next few days or weeks
Were all that you had left?”

And then my breath caught quickly
When he turned to me and asked
“Could you say that you died happy
If this day had been your last?”

Bringing someone’s loved one into care from Newport today. When we say “personal” care - that’s what we mean. It will always be us taking care of your loved one, no matter the distance 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Being an “independent” funeral director means coming into the office on Christmas Day so someone can spend time with their Husband 💙

We aren’t just a business. We are people that genuinely understand how hard it is to lose a loved one. Your family we treat as our own and we will go above and beyond to provide some comfort in your grief.

Following on from our last post we’d like to reiterate that Christmas is usually a time for family, but we know it can also be a really hard time for some. Loss doesn’t stop just because it’s the festive season.

Please know that we’re still here for you, day and night throughout the Christmas period, if you need support or someone to talk to.

You can reach us anytime on 01761 458615 or by email at info@holliejamesfuneraldirectors.co.uk.

From our family to yours, we’re sending love and wishing you a gentle, peaceful Merry Christmas. 🤍

Out delivering some festivity today to all of our suppliers and work colleagues to say thank you for all the support they have given us during 2025 (this photo was just over half way through an afternoon of deliveries from the hospitals, to crematoriums and florists and we’re not done yet!)

Tomorrow we will resume 🥳📦 💙

What a beautiful afternoon at Haycombe Cemetery & Crematorium to remember, reflect and honour loved ones. Such a poignant, touching service that I attend every year. From the photo tribute of lost loved ones, carols sung, mince pies, hanging a tag on the tree and reconnecting with families from previous years, it’s a service that’s very close to my heart 💙

Such an incredible honour to have a fly pass of the Atlas C.1 (A400) Royal Air Force aircraft on Tuesday at Haycombe Crematorium in remembrance of a much loved gentleman, Jules Gallimore.

It makes the hairs stand up on my arms watching this video back, and a big thank you to all those involved with the planning of such a personal tribute and of course Nick Dale for delivering such a beautiful service.

So unbelievably special 💙
