Heartfelt messages have been paid to 36 much-loved Somerset locals in the latest funeral and death notices this week. Tributes have been paid to much-loved family members and those who have tragically had their lives cut short.
In total, 32 death notices were placed into the funeral notices section of SomersetLive’s sister print titles, for those people who either lived in the city, or had links to it and have died recently.
The messages, placed between April 26 to May 2, provide comfort to the loved ones of those either lost or being celebrated. There were also four in memoriam messages for loved ones no longer with us.
Announcing the passing of a loved one in local news media is a long-standing tradition, and we are proud of the trust placed in us to make these important announcements. Every notice published to our newspaper and news site also appears on funeral-notices.co.uk - the UK’s number one site for death notices and memoriams.
All of the notices will remain online forever, providing friends and families with a lifelong tribute to their loved one, a safe place online to share memories, add tributes, photographs, and make donations in memory.
Each week, we pay tribute to the loved ones remembered in our area with a funeral notice and online tribute page.
