New senior partner for Herongate Woodland Cemetery

{jcomments on}Wednesday 25 January marked co-founder and senior partner Ray Ward’s last day at Herongate Woodland Cemetery in Essex.

Upon his retirement, Ray handed over the reins over to Jaqueline Sawtell, whose first step has been to make the big decision of separating the funeral directing side of the company, Adam & Greenwood Funeral Home, from the Woodland Cemetery.

“We want to welcome all families to Herongate Wood and not discriminate between those who wish to make arrangements with Adam & Greenwood and those who have always used their trusted preferred funeral director,” she explained.

“It was suggested that perhaps families did not realise this was possible, so we are sending out members of our staff to all of the local funeral directors to let them know this is the case and [to] offer advice on the types of funerals that are available at Herongate Wood.”
