Evelyn was a lovely woman and a great friend to my mother, Margaret Telfer. They were best friends from school, and right up until the day Mum died. I have very fond memories of Evelyn and send love and condolences to Alan, Bryan, Pam and Suzanne and to your families.

So sorry for your loss your mum and dad were great friends with my mum and dad Nessie and Jack Rowlands, they spent many happy times when visiting Hawick at the common riding . My thoughts are with you .
Attending a funeral FAQs
What should I wear?
We normally associate wearing black with going to a funeral. But it is increasingly typical for families to express a preferred dress code. Our advice is to look out for information from the family in a notice published either in newspapers, online or in the funeral director window to advise you of their preference.
How long does a service last?
Typically a service in most churches or crematoria lasts around 20-30 minutes. A formal mass may take a little longer and we would expect this to be nearer an hour. Finally, burials can vary in length as they are weather dependent.
Where should I sit?
Family and close friends typically reserve the first couple of rows in a service. We recommend sitting nearer the front than the back of a service space in order to support the family and enabling late arrivals to discreetly fill back rows.
Where should I send flowers?
Often a family will express a preference for flowers - or charity donations in lieu of flowers. We recommend you keep an eye on notices posted in newspapers, or online or in the funeral director window so you are able to follow their wishes.
