Recently we received a beautiful donation of matching memory hearts, and we wanted to share just how special they are.

They were kindly made and donated by a lady who has recently said goodbye to her beloved sister, who was in our care at Blackburn Funeral Services. Each heart is adorned with a lovely charm in memory of her sister, whom we had the honour of looking after.

For those who may not have seen our memory hearts before, they are given as matching pairs. One heart is placed with your loved one in their coffin, while the other is kept by you as a treasured keepsake and a lasting reminder of your special bond. 🕊🤍

We are deeply grateful for this thoughtful and heartfelt gift, and we are always really grateful for how our community really help each other out by donating these to us. ❤️🤍🖤🩷💛🩵💜💚

Before every funeral our ceremonial vehicles go through a three stage clean, first the wheels are treated and cleaned, then a a non contact snow foam wash is applied, here we see Jason on the third stage contact wash, after which it will be dried and tyre shine applied.

We’re all dog lovers here at Blackburn Funeral Services. 🎩🐾

In this scorching weather, Jason has been making sure our furry friends stay hydrated by regularly topping up and refreshing our dog water bowl. 🫗💦

Please remember to keep yourselves and your pets well hydrated during this extreme heat. 🫠🔆

If you notice our bowl is empty, don’t be shy just knock on the door and we’ll happily refill it.

Father's Day can bring a mixture of emotions.

Today, we honour and remember the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father figures who have shaped our lives with their love, guidance, and support.

For those missing a dad today, know that you are not alone. May you find comfort in treasured memories and the lasting impact of their love.
