This week, SomersetLive publishes heartfelt tributes to 38 much-loved individuals from the Somerset area, reflecting lives celebrated and mourned by family and friends. Between July 12 and July 18, 33 recent death notices were shared through SomersetLive’s affiliated print publications, acknowledging those who lived in or had strong ties to Somerset. Additionally, four in memoriam notices and one acknowledgment were included, offering comfort and remembrance.
Announcing a passing in local media remains a respected tradition, and SomersetLive is honored to facilitate these meaningful messages. Each notice is also featured on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials, ensuring lifelong accessibility. These memorial pages serve as a digital space where loved ones can share memories, post tributes, upload photographs, and make donations in honor of those who have passed.
