Today we remember all those who lost their lives during the Covid 19 pandemic. We all know of someone who died and families who struggled so much during those difficult times. We all know front line workers who risked their lives on a daily basis to protect us, and to keep caring for us.

So today we reflect on our loss and give thanks to those who worked so hard.

There are nearly quarter of a million hand painted hearts on the Covid Memorial Wall in Westminster, let’s not forget them.

We have been so very busy that our 4th anniversary almost caught me off guard. It’s honestly hard to believe it’s been four years since we opened our funeral home at the end of the global pandemic.

Thank you all so very much for your continued support. There are over 1300 of you on Facebook that are interested in our work. That feels like a huge number for a small business. Thanks also to every single member of our hardworking team, without you we simply wouldn’t be here.

Happy Birthday to us. There may be cake later 🍰

We know how difficult this time of year can be, especially if you have lost a loved one in 2024. It happened to me this year and it has impacted every moment. To every single one of you, please accept a heartfelt thank you for your support, and thank you for trusting us with those dearest to you. Try to enjoy any celebrations you may be attending, and raise a glass to those who have left us, those who love us and those who will be working to keep us safe tonight.

Blwyddyn Newydd dda i pawb, Happy New Year to you all.

If this is your first Christmas or your twentieth without someone you love we know how hard the festive season can be. We really do hope you can make the very best of it.

All of us at L-B&H would like to wish you the very best, and hope that this difficult time of year is a gentle and peaceful one for you.

We will of course be available throughout should you need us.

Thank you all for your support and kindness and faith in us this year. It is humbling to think of how many of you trusted us to help you and your family this year.

Nadolig Llawen, Merry Christmas to you all. ❤️

As we reach the final few weeks of 2024 we’ve been looking back on quite an incredible year for us. It has of course been an absolute privilege to look after each and every family who have come to us and we are grateful for the trust you have shown and hope that with our assistance you have taken those first difficult steps in living with your bereavement.

Being funeral directors is much more than making arrangements. It is about being part of our local community too. We are so grateful to have been involved with so many community occasions and to have been able to sponsor many of them, raise money for others and just generally take part in making our community a better place.

2024 has seen us arrange Military Funerals, Motorbike Funerals and so many others, we have even been on TV! We are grateful for all the lovely cakes and biscuits that keep us going through the year, and for all the kind invites to get involved with so many amazing organisations.

We’ve been constantly amazed at the creativity of the florists and musicians who work with us. The kindness and genuine care of our celebrants and ministers. The hard work that our crematoria and cemetery staff put in and the diligence and respect shown by our Registrars, Coroners and Police and all the NHS, Hospice and Care Home Staff that we work with everyday. Thank you to everyone of our team and those who come in to help us. But more than this we would like to thank all of you who have trusted us with your loved ones. It really is an honour.

We had a lovely time at the Memoria Denbighshire Christmas service on Friday night. Thank you to Nan, Sue, Dave and Aled once again for their hospitality and for allowing us to take part with Rev. John Glover and Paula B – Civil Funeral Celebrant.

Considering the weather conditions, many still attended, and thankfully the weather warning alerts went off just after we had sung the final Carol!!

Thank you to everyone for taking part.

Thank you for the kind invite to the amazing Blind Veterans UK Llandudno Centre of Wellbeing for the volunteers of the Llandudno Respects Presents: The Longest Yarn. Thank you Gini and the Friends of Mostyn Street, it was a privilege to be involved.

Llandudno’s final act of Remembrance this year was the Armistice Service at the War Memorial, followed by a Service of Rededication of the Memorial Chapel at Holy Trinity Church on its 100th Anniversary. Both very well attended. It was a beautiful sunny morning.

This time of year is so very poignant as we remember those who gave their lives in conflict and who have served in our armed forces. I’ve been incredibly lucky to be able to assist at our fantastic Blind Veterans UK Llandudno Centre of Wellbeing and also once again with the Home Front Museum’s Faces of the Fallen display for the The Royal British Legion – Llandudno Branch – Br2962.

Being at the Veterans Dinner this week was humbling. Meeting them really is a privilege, and seeing the amazing work that the entire team does just takes your breath away. Such wonderful, kind people.

Today’s Drumhead Ceremony and Act of Remembrance was very moving as 101 year old Blind Veteran Arthur laid the first wreath.

It has been an honour to be part in the proceedings.
