This week, SomersetLive shares heartfelt funeral notices honoring 28 cherished members of the Somerset community. These tributes reflect deep love and remembrance for family, friends, and locals whose lives have recently ended, some too soon.
Between May 17 and May 23, 25 death notices were published across SomersetLive’s affiliated print titles, commemorating individuals who lived in or had connections to the county. Alongside these were two in memoriam notices and one acknowledgment, providing comfort and a lasting tribute to those remembered.
Publishing death notices in local media is a time-honored tradition, and SomersetLive is proud to be entrusted with these important announcements. Every notice also appears on funeral-notices.co.uk, the UK’s leading platform for death notices and memorials. These online tributes offer a permanent, respectful space for families and friends to share memories, post photographs, add messages, and make donations in honor of their loved ones.
