🐣 Easter Egg Appeal 2026 🐣

This Easter, Gavin J. Reynolds Family Funeral Directors have been asked to help support a number of local families across Sunderland.

We are kindly asking for Easter egg donations to help bring a little joy to children and families who need it most this Easter 🐰🍫

πŸ“ Drop-off locations:

We have been truly humbled by the generosity shown in previous appeals. Time and again, the Sunderland community has come together, showing kindness and compassion to help their neighbours.

If you are able to donate an Easter egg, no matter how small, it would be hugely appreciated and will make a real difference 🌼

Bowing to the coffin, why do we do this?

I was recently collecting my daughter from school when a gentleman asked me, "Why do you bow to the coffin, even if you don't know the person?" This prompted me to consider why we engage in this practice.

Bowing our heads at various points during a service is a traditional gesture of respect. It serves to honour the individual who has passed away and to acknowledge the trust that the family has placed in us.

While many traditions have naturally evolved over time, these small acts continue to be a significant way of demonstrating dignity and care throughout a funeral service.

We extend our gratitude to the family of the late Norma Malcolm for the thoughtful card and gifts. It was a truly special farewell for a remarkable woman. We experienced a week of truly unique funeral services, and Norma's certainly fell within that category. From beginning to end, it was a beautiful and fitting funeral service (sorry about the rain β€” that one was beyond us).

Our Funeral Director, Kristina, arranged this stunning vintage-style hearse to take a very special man on his final journey. As you can see, it is a beautiful vehicle that perfectly complements the new Jaguar XF limousines, allowing the family to travel together in the same style and comfort.
