If you are planning a religious service, it's a good idea to talk to your minister. Traditional funeral services are held in a church, or at a crematorium, but you may decide you'd like a less traditional funeral, such as a woodland funeral, or one with a theme. Talk your ideas through with your family, or ask us if you have any unusual requests. Burial/Cremation - You may have specific ideas about where you would like to be buried, or where you would like your ashes to go.

You can pay in instalments or a lump sum and choose the type of funeral you would like. You can arrange pre-payment through W Case and Partners, or some insurance companies will provide plans, and there are also funeral plan companies. Please talk to us about the plans we have available. Make sure your relatives know about your wishes, and how to access the paperwork relating to them.

We had hoped there would be more people in the chapel but apart from her close family we are aware that at the grand age of 94 most of Mum's friends and acquaintances were either unable to get there because of their frailty or may have already passed away. The family and I would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation for all the help and assistance you have conveyed during this sad time.

Some people weep, others become quiet, and some will need to talk to someone. Weeping in private or in public is a common experience at this time, there is no need to feel embarrassed. Your family and friends really do understand since most are suffering, or have suffered, just as you are. Lean upon your loved ones and your faith, if you have one, and be glad for the happy memories which make parting so difficult now, but will sustain you in the future.

read moreWill Case and Partners has a heritage that starts in the 1960s and continues to this day because of the principles laid down by Will Case and his daughter Mary Case. Both recognised that to provide the very best funeral services staff needed to be highly professional, have the right technical knowledge and experience all combined with the profound understanding that the role of a funeral director is a rare privilege in any community. William and Mary made a significant impact on the way funeral services were developed in the UK and around the world and with the help of Sheila Dicks founded the Salisbury College of Funeral Sciences which has a worldwide reputation for training.

Each funeral is tailored to the needs of the individual concerned and in accordance with the National Association of Funeral Directors' Code of Practice, a written estimate is given after our initial discussion and before arrangements are put in hand. The final account reflects the choice of arrangements that you have selected and what we have paid on your behalf. The choice of coffin, the number of cars and the details of the arrangements will influence our fees, but please be assured that whatever style of funeral you have chosen the standard of our service and care remain the same: the highest that we can give.
