This week, heartfelt tributes have been shared for 34 beloved individuals from Somerset, commemorating their lives and offering solace to their families and friends. Among these are 31 recent death notices published in the funeral section of SomersetLive’s sister print titles, featuring individuals who lived in or had connections to the Somerset area.
These notices, dated between September 13 and 19, provide a touching record of lives remembered and celebrated. In addition, three in memoriam messages honour those no longer with us but fondly recalled.
Announcing the passing of loved ones via local news media remains a cherished tradition, and SomersetLive is honoured to be trusted with this important role. Every notice published is also featured on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials.

All notices remain permanently accessible online, creating a lasting tribute where friends and family can share memories, add tributes and photographs, and make charitable donations in honour of those they have lost.
Each week, we pay tribute to the lives remembered within our community through funeral notices and dedicated online memorial pages. The following is a selection of recent tributes published this week, reflecting the warmth and respect of families as they farewell their loved ones.
For instance, Lyn of Monkton Combe, aged 80, passed peacefully on August 13, 2025, and will be dearly missed by his family and friends. His funeral service is scheduled for September 25 at Valley Chapel Haycombe, Bath, with donations welcomed for the British Heart Foundation.
Carol, who died suddenly on September 8, 2025, aged 77, was a devoted wife, mother, and grandmother. Her funeral will take place at Haycombe Crematorium on October 2, with donations kindly accepted in her memory towards the Coronary Care Unit at the Royal United Hospital.
The community also mourns the loss of others including those aged from their 60s to their 90s, each with stories of love, dedication, and cherished family ties, such as Adrian Francis Brewer, a devoted son and father who passed peacefully at Dorothy House; and Leslie, a loving father and brother remembered fondly by all who knew him.
These notices and many others serve not only as formal announcements but as expressions of love, respect, and remembrance for those who have impacted lives in Somerset.
Friends and families are encouraged to visit funeral-notices.co.uk to view, share tributes, or place their own funeral notices. For assistance in publishing notices, our dedicated team is available at 01482 908084.
In these moments of farewell, the Somerset community comes together to honour the memories and celebrate the enduring legacies of those who have passed.
