Just because you see something on the TV it doesn’t mean it’s your only option or that they are giving you all the facts. Speak to your local funeral director for advice & guidance.

Another reason why independent, local, family owned funeral directors are who you should turn to in your time of need. Please feel free to share this post—we would love to hear your thoughts on family-owned independents versus corporates. 🖤👇

At J.T.Howe, we are always looking for meaningful, modern ways to help families honor and remember their loved ones.

Today, James visited Everheld Castings to create a sample hand cast for our funeral home. Being able to see and touch something so detailed in person is truly special, and we wanted to bring this tangible keepsake directly to the families we serve.

Whether it’s a final hold of a hand or a comforting physical reminder of a life well-lived, we believe these timeless pieces offer a deeply personal source of comfort.

Why Families Love Hand Casts:
Incredible Detail: Captures every unique line, fingerprint, and texture.

Lasting Tribute: A solid, high-quality keepsake made to stand the test of time.

Display Ready: Designed to sit gently in the home as a daily reminder of love.

This new sample will soon be on display in our arrangement room so families can view it up close when discussing options with us.
Would your family prefer a keepsake like this, or do you gravitate toward traditional remembrance options?

Let us know in the comments below.

We are proud to offer exquisite memorial jewellery from Ashes into Glass ®. 🕊️✨
Crafting cremation ashes and crystal glass into timeless pieces like these allows you to keep your loved ones close—whether worn as a pendant, a ring, or held gently in your hand.
As one client beautifully shared: “I feel so close to her when I wear it or just hold it in my hand.”
If you would like to learn more about creating a meaningful tribute, please visit us in-store or reach out to James or Emma.

Recent news from Hull has understandably raised concerns about the care and standards families should expect from a funeral director. We ourselves are shocked and saddened that this has happened to these families.

At J.T.Howe Funeral Directors, we are proud to be a National Society of Allied & Independent Funeral Directors (SAIF) member and part of a community of independent funeral directors committed to professional and compassionate care.

We are regularly inspected and voluntarily regulated under the UK Funeral Director Code. Families also have access to an independent complaints process through SAIF, delivered by an externally audited and Chartered Trading Standards Institute-certified body.

We hope these safeguards offer added reassurance that families and their loved ones will be treated with care, dignity and respect.
