This week, SomersetLive and its sister print publications have shared heartfelt funeral and death notices commemorating 35 much-loved members of the Somerset community. These tributes recognize the lives of individuals who have recently passed, offering comfort to grieving families and friends.
Between May 3 and May 9, 30 death notices were published honoring those with strong ties to Somerset, whether residents or connected through family. Additionally, the notices included three in memoriam messages and two acknowledgments, reflecting enduring remembrance.
Announcing passings in local media remains a deeply valued tradition. SomersetLive is honoured to be entrusted with sharing these important announcements, which also appear on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials. Each tribute remains online indefinitely, providing a lasting space for loved ones to share memories, photos, and donations in honour of those who have passed.
Weekly, we pay homage to the memory of local residents through dedicated funeral notices and online memorial pages. To honor these lives or publish a notice, families can reach out via the provided contact options.
Among the many shared notices this week are stories of individuals who touched lives across Somerset and beyond. From peaceful passings at home to services held in local churches and crematoria, each notice celebrates unique legacies, family bonds, and community connections. Donations to causes such as St Margaret’s Somerset Hospice, Alzheimer’s Research UK, Dementia UK, Cancer Research UK, and others highlight the enduring generosity in memory of the departed.
The collection of funeral notices reflects the diverse lives and stories of Somerset’s beloved community members. Their memories live on through the loving tributes and support of family, friends, and neighbours.
