Samantha Ward, Lady Funeral Director at Bay Tree Funerals

A familiar person from the first call onward

Hello, I’m Samantha.

When you call Bay Tree, there is every chance you will speak directly to me. Tell me what has happened, who should be involved and whether the family is considering St Bartholomew’s, burial, cremation or a non-religious farewell.

Quorn families have many beliefs, backgrounds and personal traditions. Some want a parish-church funeral or burial; others prefer a crematorium, another faith tradition or no religion at all.

I remain personally involved in both the arrangements and your loved one’s care at Bay Tree, supported by our small family team.

  • Church, burial, cremation, faith and personal wishes discussed directly
  • St Bartholomew’s, minister, celebrant, burial-ground and crematorium liaison
  • Clear written costs before arrangements are confirmed
  • One familiar person to call through to the funeral day

Nearby and independent: Bay Tree’s funeral home and private chapel of rest are at 7A Welford Road in Blaby. Quorn families can meet Samantha privately there, with free parking and time to talk without being rushed.

Continuity of care matters

Your loved one remains locally at Bay Tree, cared for by Samantha and the same small team.

Once your loved one comes into our care, they remain at Bay Tree in our own private chapel of rest. Samantha remains connected to the care taking place and to the family’s wishes.

This can be particularly important where family visits, clothing, prayer, cultural preparation or private viewing matters. Discuss the requirements directly with Samantha rather than passing them through several departments.

Cared for by the people you meet

The person guiding the funeral remains connected to your loved one’s care.

A private local chapel

Visits, prayers and appropriate preparation wishes can be discussed sensitively.

One team accountable throughout

Samantha and the Bay Tree family team remain your clear point of contact.
