For many Christians, Easter is a celebration of the triumph of life over death, and a very important time of the year. Many non-Christians also have a holiday at this time, whatever your beliefs we hope you are enjoying this special time with your family and friends

As January comes to a close and our new years resolutions hold strong (or not!) let's appreciate and follow the words of advice given below ♥️

Lest we forget ❤️

-“I’ve learnt to deal with it”
-“I’m too embarrassed”
-“I don’t want to appear weak”
-“I don’t want to be a burden to anyone”
-“There’s a negative stigma around this”

But here’s the wonderful, beautiful thing about society. Real men do cry. Real men do feel. Real men talk and grieve and will accept an emotional soul instead of an imprisoned one. 💙

✨ To all of our Muslim families, friends and colleagues celebrating, Happy Islamic New Year!

Love is expressed in many different ways at a funeral, one of them being through flowers. We love the colours in this particular bereavement bouquet from a funeral we conducted last month.

We do love receiving all your lovely reviews on Google. Thank you for these kind words Tanya 💚

A Child Of Mine - Supporting Bereaved Parents

🎩 This morning we said farewell to a special gentleman. He loved his dog and the family wanted to incorporate that aspect of him into his funeral, which is the flower tribute you can see on top of the hearse here. Sleep well, good sir 🫡

Good Grief! Del Hughes gets the kitchen roll out for a bereavement breakdown Del Hughes Right now I’m ugly-crying, the bin’s brimming with sodden kitchen-roll (Regina XXL), and my eyelids are so swollen I can barely see. I’ve eaten crap all day. . . Wotsits, French Fancies and a sharing bag of Revels, which I certainly didn’t share. There’s a pain in my chest that ...

🎩 Today we es**rted this much loved and dearly missed lady on her final journey. It was lovely to see to community stop and pay their respects to her 💚

We know this day can be especially difficult for anyone missing their Dad, and for any Dad missing his child, so we’re sending you love 💚

In life, and in death, love is love 🏳️‍🌈

Thank you for this wonderful review on Google Suela! 💚

"Woodford Green Funeral Directors is highly recommended! They made such a difficult time feel as less stressful as possible which is so vital. They were always open to answering any queries and so attentive at all hours. Nothing was too much to ask for and all dates were met on time even at short notice. The headstone turned out better than imagined so everyone was pleased! Most importantly, the service provided was extremely professional and caring which is so imperative. Again, I highly recommend Woodford Green Funeral Directors if you want a smooth and efficient service!" - Suela
