Publishing funeral notices in local news has long been a meaningful tradition, one we are honoured to continue with the utmost respect and care. Each announcement we share in our newspaper and online also appears on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials. These pages serve as lasting tributes, offering families and friends a safe space to commemorate their loved ones, share memories, post photographs, and receive donations in their honour.
Every week, we pay tribute to the dear souls remembered in Somerset, providing details of funeral services and invitation to add personal tributes. Below is a selection of notices published this week celebrating lives well-lived and the enduring memories of those dearly missed.
Among them, we remember a devoted wife from Wells, aged 93, cherished mother and grandmother, whose cremation service will be held at Mendip Crematorium. Donations may be made to Wallace & Gromit’s Children’s Foundation. Another dearly loved 92-year-old, wife and mother, will be honoured with a service at Haycombe Crematorium, with donations kindly directed to Dorothy House Hospice.
We also recall Phyllis Anne Bartlett, 75, whose funeral and celebration of life at The Butterfly Rooms invites attendees to wear butterfly-themed accessories in her memory. Gifts in support of the Somerset and Dorset Air Ambulance are welcomed. Other notable tributes include services for community members in Crewkerne, Bath, and beyond, all remembered with love and respect.
Each notice includes practical details such as funeral dates, locations, and charity preferences for donations. Family flowers only are requested in many cases, underscoring support through charitable giving. For those wishing to publish a funeral notice or leave memories, our team is ready to assist via phone or online.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to all families mourning their losses and encourage ongoing remembrance through these tributes that celebrate lives, legacies, and lasting bonds.
