Private Cremation + Mini Wake
A simple private cremation (known also as direct cremation) for people who don't want a formal funeral service linked with a simple wake following.
We have found over the years the opportunity to have a glass of wine or beer following a viewing or service is a good way to remember a life. Stories are told and memories are shared. We are now offering a range of organised wakes following our services.
We provide the drinks, your provide the shared memories.
