Letters to Heaven by Amanda-Louise Funeral Home

Here at Amanda-Louise Funeral Services, the ladies understand that certain times of year can be traumatic for those who have lost a loved one.  This can be Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Birthdays, Wedding Anniversaries, on the date of their death, or even when most of us are feeling ‘this is the most wonderous time of the year’ aka Christmas and New Year.

We recognise that while some may be celebrating on these occasions, when someone has suffered a loss it can be a very different experience.

For this reason, our unrivalled services, have installed a Letters to Heaven And/Or  To A Loved One Post Box in our funeral home in Blenheim Road, Minehead, West Somerset. Anyone is welcome to post a letter or card, and is completely confidential.

For some, writing thoughts and emotions down is a positive step in looking after oneself following a bereavement.  As we are trained in bereavement counselling, we know that certain days of the year can be a trigger, so you may find comfort in putting pen to paper.

The post box is not owned or serviced by Royal Mail, so no address or stamp is needed on any messages to loved ones put into it.

We also have a condolence book in our funeral home, for anyone who wants to write a message too.

Lady funeral directors, Amanda-Louise Funeral Services, understand that grief has no time limits and can have a variety of emotions, as does certain times of the year. So our Letters to Heaven/To a Loved One Post Box is our heartfelt way to support our bereaved community

 

Coping with Grief

We hope that visiting our funeral home and posting a letter to your loved one into our post box will bring you comfort each time you visit.

We understand that coming to terms with the loss of your loved one will be a personal journey, there is no timeframe on all the emotions that grief can bring.
