Helping families deal with the practical and emotional issues of bereavement for almost 100 years.

When Someone Dies...
Initial Steps
Unfortunately, most of us will be confronted with the task of arranging the funeral of a loved one, which, in the midst of grief, can be a daunting ordeal...

Cremation
No one can be cremated until the cause of death is definitely known. There are certain forms that you will be required to sign. The cost of the crematoria are governed by local authorities...

Funeral Notices
Welcome to our funeral notices page. On this page, you will find death notices or obituaries for funerals we are conducting. We cover all of Northern Ireland however we predominantly serve Newtownards, Bangor, Dundonald and the surrounding areas..

Disbursements
Each plan includes a contribution towards other expenses, such as burial or cremation fees, minister’s fees etc. – these fees are known as “disbursements”. This is intended to cover most if not all of the usual disbursements, but please note that they are outside of our control and cannot be guaranteed. The amount included for disbursements will be increased annually in line with the Retail Price index. You can include a larger (or smaller) contribution towards disbursements if you wish – please ask if you need advice on this point.

Personalised Arrangements
A funeral is a very personal matter and many people have particular wishes. If none of these plans suit your requirements then please let us know and we will prepare a personalised plan just for you, to allow for whatever services you require.

Choosing is easy – just select a plan and note any special wishes on the application form, or discuss a fully personalised option with us, to meet your exact requirements.
