Funeral arrangements

Created by Admin 5 years ago

Mum's funeral service will take place at Usk Castle Chase Natural Burial Ground on Friday 20th April at 1.00pm. We want this to be a celebration of Mum's life so would like for everyone to be in colour, as little black as possible please, Mum would want to go out to a big party and that's what we will try and do for her.

If desired, dad and I would like to ask for donations in lieu of flowers for DKMS U.K. which may be given on this web page or sent to Ernest Heal & Sons Funeral Directors, Chippenham Funeral Home, Howells Place, Monmouth NP25 3ED. (Please make cheques payable to Ernest Heal & Sons Donations Account). This was our chosen charity who help in the fight of deleting Blood Cancer.

After the ceremony our dear friends will be hosting the wake at their home The Tollgate in Monmouth. Mum absolutely loved spending time here and listening to all sorts of live music so we would like for anyone wanting to sing, play music to please do so. We will provide refreshments and just ask that you come along to complete Mum's send off into the early hours around great family and friends dancing and reminiscing about this special lady. 

There are plenty of options for accommodation in the area with a Premier Inn about half a mile down the road from The Tollgate among other hotels. If you're feeling brave there are lots of nice campsites locally as well.

Dad and I can provide more details on address' and locations. 

Donations
Dad and I will give floral tributes to Mum. If desired, donations in lieu for DKMS U.K. We would love for as many of you as possible to also register as potential donors so that you may have the honour of one day being called upon to save a life.
