Your Independent, local, funeral directors
Navigating the loss of someone close to you is a deeply personal and emotionally challenging journey. At Heart And Soul Funerals, serving Totnes, Buckfastleigh, Ashburton, and the surrounding areas, we understand this and have dedicated ourselves to providing a bespoke funeral experience for every family we assist. Our journey began over 25 years ago when we noticed the prevailing “one size fits all” approach to funerals. Our belief was that each farewell should be as unique as the life it honours.
As your local highly qualified and experienced funeral directors, we are dedicated to helping families transform their wishes and any wishes of the person who has died into meaningful farewells. Traditional funerals can sometimes feel impersonal, often not reflecting the individuality of each person. We felt there was a need for a more personalised approach.
A personal funeralhonours and celebrates the life of the person who has died, assists them in their transition from this life, and provides comfort and hope to the bereaved. This isn’t just about a different location or unusual music choices, it’s about creating an entire ceremony that truly encapsulates the life lived and the memories created.
The heart of a bespoke funeral lies in active family participation. You know your loved one best, and you know what would truly reflect their life, values, and character. We, as your funeral directors, are here to guide, support, and facilitate this process. Together, we can create a ceremony that feels authentic and meaningful, a ceremony that is a true celebration of their life.
Over the years, we have had the privilege of assisting families in creating funerals in varied settings – from homes and gardens to hotels, boats, and our very own Riverstone barn by the River Dart. We have seen how such personalised ceremonies can aid the grieving process, offering comfort during this challenging time.
We believe in providing families with choices. Choices that are not just limited to traditional or green funerals, but extend to any form of ceremony that will best honour the life of the person. We are dedicated to helping you understand what’s possible and then helping you turn that possibility into a reality.
Remember, as your local funeral directors, we are here to help you through this difficult time. For further information or assistance, call us at 01803 840779 or visit www.heartandsoulfunerals.co.uk.
