Arranging a Funeral & Selecting the Right One

Choosing the right type of funeral is a personal decision that reflects the individual and their family. At Butterfields, renowned among funeral directors in Rotherham, we pride ourselves on our attention to detail and are here to discuss even the smallest personal touches, ensuring the service truly represents the individual.

You may want the cortege to take a specific route or personalise the coffin with photographs. We’re here to help make your wishes a reality.

Burial or Cremation

Deciding between burial and cremation can be challenging, especially if the deceased didn’t share their preferences. Considering a funeral plan can clarify these choices and ease financial concerns.

For burials, they typically occur in local cemeteries or churchyards, requiring decisions on the grave type and number of interments. If a new grave is needed, we can assist with the necessary arrangements, including obtaining deed information for existing graves.

For cremation, you'll need to choose a crematorium and decide if the service will be held there or at another location. We will guide you through all available options, such as whether the curtains should be open or closed during the service.
