Somerset locals remember loved ones with heartfelt tributes. Forty-six notices honor lives in the community.
Somerset Live’s print papers included forty-one death notices for people who lived in the city. Others had ties there and recently died. The messages offer comfort to their families.
These notices ran from February 1st to February 7th. Four “in memoriam” messages honored those gone. One notice was an acknowledgment of thanks.
Sharing news of a death in local media is an old custom, and we feel honored to help share these announcements. Notices from our paper and site also appear on funeral-notices.co.uk, a top UK site for these notices. Every notice stays online forever, providing a lasting tribute to the person. Families can share memories and photos there, and people can also donate in their name.
Here are some of the notices published this week.
