When someone dies

At Millingtons we are continually striving to provide the best possible service to you. We are committed to creating a peaceful and calming environment and endeavour to:

• Correctly interpret your needs and wishes
• Have full knowledge of all legal requirements and complete all necessary documentation.
• Liaise with clergy or celebrant and coordinate requirements for all denominations.
• Arrange and conduct the funeral/celebration of your loved one’s life
• Available 24 hours, 365 days a year
• Provide a private ambulance for transfer of your loved one into our care

At some time in our lives death will touch us all. While no one wants to dwell on the subject, some understanding of what occurs can help you be prepared for its eventuality.

Why have a funeral?

A funeral is for the living. It is a chance for you, your family and friends to come together to mourn the loss, but most importantly to celebrate the life of the deceased. It is an opportunity to come together and remember the person’s life and achievements, and to say goodbye in a way that feels appropriate to you.

Funerals can give strength to the bereaved family and friends to accept the death, express their emotions and begin preparing for the future.
