WE ARE A THREE GENERATION, INDEPENDENT FAMILY FUNERAL DIRECTORS EXTENDING UNIQUE AND INDIVIDUAL SERVICES TO OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY.

The Searson family Funeral Service are a family owned and operated business extending thirty years of experience in all aspects of our profession. We firmly believe that each and every funeral should be a reflection of the life lost, depicting the personality, love and character. A funeral is more than just a time to say farewell, it is also an opportunity for all to gather as one, and to celebrate the memories and provide a fitting tribute. We take a great deal of pride in being able to tailor precisely the a service to meet the varied and individual needs of our families. We extend a vast range of options and choices, enabling our families to create something special, a memorable day that will be remembered with positive thoughts.

We have three Funeral Home Locations: Portsmouth, Southsea and Havant, all of which are managed by a member of the Searson family. Each Funeral Home is decorated to reflect an informal, comfortable and warm environment, a place that looks homely and inviting. Each Funeral Home has a lovely Memorial Chapel where time can be spent visiting a loved one in tranquil surroundings. We have extended opening hours, although we can be available at any time, any day by appointment. However, should you feel that a home visit would be more beneficial for you, we will happily come and see you.

A QUALIFIED Embalmer who exceeds the requirements set by the National Examination Board of Embalmers and a QUALIFIED Funeral Service Manager gaining a Diploma in Funeral Service Management.

WE'RE NOT YOUR TYPICAL 'UNDERTAKER'...

Many people perceive the Funeral Director to that sombre image of yesteryear, dressed in balck, formal and lacking personality. The Searson Family Funeral Service are very much forward thinking in their approach, a modern business that embraces traditional values. Services have been developed to reflect a more celebrational approach to funerals, remembering lives, saying farewell in a way that affords a sense of pride.
When arranging a funeral we look at it more as creating a special day, one that will be remembered for positive reasons. We extend a wide range of options and choices in how that special day is put together. We recognise that each life lost represents a unique and individual character. That is why we ensure that every service reflects the personality of those who have passed away, it's their special day, it should be as unique as them.

    I have been to so many funerals over the last few years and they all seem to be very much the same. Nice services but nothing that stands out as being special. I went to a funeral a few weeks ago which the Searsons had arranged and I think it could be described as having the 'WOW' factor. Very professional, certainly a unique tribute to a very special person. If you are looking to arrange a funeral then I do recommend you contact the peoples, nice people who do a wonderful job.

PROMPT PAYMENT INCENTIVES


For any family wishing to settle their funeral account before the day of service, we are able to extend a range of discount incentives. A cash reduction is just one way in which we can extent greater value, we have a wide range of gifts which will often provide even more value than selecting the cash reduction. Please visit our wensite for more details.

All of our Prompt Payment Incentives do rely upon the FULL invoice total being settled, as cleared funds, prior to the day of service.

For more information on this offer please visit: http://www.searsonsfunerals.co.uk/gifts.htm
