Funeral Services That We Offer
At J Lawrence & Sons, we provide the most complete range of funeral services Woolston has to offer, including:
Funeral Arrangements
When the time feels right to discuss the funeral arrangements, our funeral directors, Woolston residents, are here to offer tailored services that celebrate and honour the life of your loved one. We provide an initial consultation at your convenience, whether it’s in our office or your home.
Decisions to be made when planning a funeral include:
- Burial or Cremation
- Religious or Non-Religious Service
- Music, Obituary Notices
- Flowers
- Donations
- Vehicle Requirements
- Viewing in Our Chapel of Rest
- Options for the Cremated Remains
We offer both church and chapel services, and we can also arrange for non-religious speakers to lead the service. Hymns can be sung, or recorded music can be played, and we can place notices in national and regional papers, including The Daily Echo.
Burial Services
A burial can offer a more permanent resting place for your loved one. In the Southampton area, the main cemeteries are Council owned, including Hollybrook, South Stoneham, St. Mary Extra, Millbrook, and Southampton Old. The service can be held in a church or our chapels if a religious service is inappropriate. We work with independent speakers and British Humanist Association Celebrants. Hymns can be sung, or recorded music can be played, and we can arrange flowers for you.
Memorial Services
After the burial, you may wish to hold a memorial service to celebrate the life of your loved one. These events can be challenging to organise, and our funeral directors, Woolston residents, are here to help. We consult with you to understand your requirements and present a cost-effective solution tailored to your needs. Our personalised service ensures you can organise a fitting tribute for your loved one. We can help organise several features to make your memorial service more personal and special.
Cremation Services
J Lawrence & Sons has provided cremation services for over a century in Southampton and surrounding areas. We work with three crematoriums in Southampton, including the Southampton Crematorium on Bassett Green Road, the Wessex Vale Crematorium in West End, and the Test Valley Crematorium in Romsey.
Cremated remains can be scattered in the crematorium garden of rest or a family grave, placed in a churchyard if available, kept at home, or scattered at the deceased’s favourite location.
Funeral Flowers
One of our funeral services, Woolston residents, is funeral flowers. We offer many funeral flowers, including popular choices such as orchids, lilies, chrysanthemums, carnations, and roses. These flowers can be presented in various forms, such as wreaths, baskets, casket sprays, or standing sprays.
Half-casket sprays or garlands are often chosen for open-casket services, while casket sprays that combine several flowers and greens are popular for closed-casket funerals. As the top funeral directors Woolston has to offer, we also offer many other beautiful funeral flower arrangements that you can choose from, and we can work with outside florists if you prefer. However, please ensure the arrangement is delivered at least two hours before the funeral service to avoid delays.
Our Funeral Coffins and Caskets
As the most attentive funeral directors Woolston has to offer, we understand the importance of having a coffin or casket that’s a fitting tribute to your loved one.
Our funeral services, Woolston residents, include a comprehensive selection of models ranging from traditional to modern designs.
Coffins are tapered at the head and foot and are wide at the shoulders, while caskets are rectangular and generally made from better-quality timber. Our coffins and caskets are crafted using the finest materials, including solid wood and veneer, to ensure longevity.
