We also have a chapel of rest, providing a private space in which you can spend some reflective time with your loved one, in the days leading up to the funeral.
Over the years, we have been privileged to help the local community, along with the wider Southampton area, and our Shirley funeral directors would be honoured to provide a dignified farewell for your loved one too.
