Perhaps you have
a favourite reading
Many people, when they are pre-arranging a funeral,
tell us about a favourite religious reading that they
would like to be part of their funeral service.
We record their wish, along with other information
that they provide to us, and this becomes their
pre-arrangement document. We retain one copy and
give them another.
If you have a favourite reading, please come in and
tell us about it, or call us at the number below. We’d be
glad to help.
