May we never forget the sacrifices made for our tomorrow.
This Sunday we saw a lot of our community paying their respects, and are proud to see all the handmade decorations around our local area and churches. WE WILL REMEMBER THEM 💜🙏

⛪️ L O C A L H I S T O R Y ⛪️
We saw this old photograph of Goldthorpe St John & St Mary Magdalene Church, circa 1916, posted in a memories group by Mark Hargreaves and we had to share. It turns out that one of our local churches was the first in England to be built solely by reinforced concrete. These two photographs have over 100 years between them, just think how many precious memories this place holds for the generations of our community 💜🙏🏻

It was an honour to take part in the last ride of Mark 'Bibber' Bisby with all his family and friends. I hope we all did you proud and gave you the send off you deserved. "You're not gone, just riding ahead. We'll see you on the other side." Love from our family to yours 🙏💜

Knowing we're doing our best for you all means the world to us ✨ We recently received a card and flowers (and not forgetting sweet treats for with a cuppa) from a lovely family. We helped them say goodbye to their special lady just how she would have wanted. We also had the pleasure of working with James and his team who made the day extra special with their white Horse & Carriage 🙏💜

We have some imperfect little ashes urns for keepsakes, each one has a very slight imperfection, (as seen in the photos 📸) meaning we are able to offer them for a reduced price of £10, or three for £25 🙏🏻💜

Sadly this behaviour on the road happens more often than you’d think 😢 some drivers need to be more aware of their surroundings whilst on the road. We all attend funerals throughout our lives, and I know these drivers would be angry if something like this happened during their loved ones procession. Be mindful 💜🙏🏻

Sadly this is so heartbreakingly true 💔 Just lately we are having more and more drivers on the roads being impatient and trying to push in on the Funeral Cortège’s in between the Hearse and the Limousines with bereaved family members in, and even on funerals with our horses too.

This is happening to the point where accidents have nearly been caused because someone just wants to cut in or to cut through.

I appreciate we drive slower, but this is someone’s final journey, and this is done out of respect.

Whether this makes you 30 seconds, one minute or two minutes late for where you need to be, think about that person who has passed and the families that are following.

A final journey is so precious 🤍
