A Modern Funeral

05/10/2022

Did you know that there are about half a million sets of ashes left uncollected at funeral directors largely due to family indecision?

At Tarn Moor Memorial Woodland we offer a service to both inter or scatter ashes.

Some points for you to consider before going ahead....

Do you wish to place the ashes in the ground yourself or engage a funeral director or celebrant?
Is a ceremony important to you at this stage?
Do you wish to have a special place to visit in the future where you can place flowers?
Do you wish to have a loved ones name carved onto a memorial stone?
When strewing cremated remains it is a nice idea to include flower petals.
Be mindful of the wind direction!

We have the option to bury ashes around existing trees as we have larger, mature trees and have the feeling of a more established woodland.

Many people are now cremated directly without ceremony, the families instead choose to have a memorial party or service at the time of the ashes interment or scattering. These direct cremations are one third of the normal cremation funeral cost.

Here, you can take your time and are not limited to a short time slot as at the crematorium. Alternatively you can have a memorial ceremony elsewhere and come to us at the burial ground another day or when your guests have gone home. You can be as creative or simple as you like.

Give us a call, drop us a message on Facebook, email or pop in and see us 😊

Losing a loved one is tough. It becomes especially hard when special occasions like wedding anniversaries or birthdays go by and we wish nothing more than to have them by our side.

It can be incredibly difficult to express what you want to say on a day like their birthday. You probably feel overwhelmed by a range of emotions as you reflect on the wonderful times you had together, as well as the immeasurable sadness of not having them with you anymore.

Regardless of whether or not they’re still here, we can always take a moment to wish them a happy birthday in heaven.

We are thinking of a family today who are sending birthday wishes up to heaven. Happy birthday 'S'
40 today 💙

Some losses permanently impact you and your life, so you find you will need ways to coexist with those losses, the difficult grief, & how your life is forever changed & impacted. As many grievers say, it's a lifelong journey.

I always feel that it is a great privilege to be given the opportunity to share all the amazing things that some people have given others so much to think and talk about
