James Cockburn Funeral Directors

read moreThere's so much to think about when someone dies, it's not easy to know what to do first. We will help you with all the practical arrangements, from choosing the appropriate coffin or casket, to organising the catering for after the service. Whatever type of service you want, from the traditional religious service to a non-religious ceremony incorporating your own music and readings, we'll be happy to discuss them with you. Our aim is to help you deal with the practicalities of a funeral while arranging a fitting tribute to the person who has died.

read moreFuneral arrangements can be a very complex procedure which many of us have never encountered before. It is important to remember that every funeral and the circumstances surrounding it is different, therefore the procedures that have to be completed can be vastly different in each case. It is important to make contact with the funeral director as soon as possible following the death to discuss your requirements and to ensure that the correct action is being taken at the right time. One of our funeral directors will meet with you either in the funeral home or in your own home to discuss the arrangements with you, and he will be responsible for ensuring that every aspect of the arrangements is carried out according to your wishes, through to the point of being there on the day personally to conduct and oversee the funeral ceremony itself at a time mutually agreeable to all parties involved.
