The funeral service

 
 

Creating a unique funeral service for your loved one

When someone dear to you passes away, it’s only natural that you want to create a funeral ceremony that truly captures the essence of that person. At Kevin Matthews Funeral Services, we’ll go out of our way to make your plans, hopes and wishes come true.

These days, there are so many different ways that a funeral can celebrate and commemorate the character and personality of an individual who has died. We will spend as much time as you wish talking through the options, and help you to create a unique personalised tribute to your family member, friend or relative.
 

Choosing the most fitting ceremony

The first decision to make is whether you want to have a burial or cremation, religious or non-religious service or green burial. Naturally, this is a very personal matter which will be influenced by the wishes of the person who has died, your family traditions, history and culture. We can help you come to a decision if you wish.

You will also need to choose a coffin. We can supply a wide range of coffins, from the most simple to the truly elaborate, suitable for burial or cremation. We understand that some people might find this part of the process distressing, and while we can’t make choice for you, we can certainly help.
 

The perfect floral tributes and stationery

Floral tributes are a very effective way to make a funeral ceremony unique, special and personal to the person whose life you are celebrating. If you don’t already have a preferred florist, may we suggest the services of Perkins Florist in Northampton. You can visit their website at www.perkinsflorists.com.
