04/12/2023

D Walsh & Son extend our heartfelt support as christmas is approching with an invitation to our annual Christmas Memorial Service which will be held on Thursday 14th December 2023 at 7pm At All Saints church, 13 Little Horton Grn, Bradford BD5 0NG.

During what promises to be a moving service, we shall be joined by the Bradford Metro Band and there will be moments of reflection where we remember loved ones lost, at this time of year. Refreshments will be served in the hall afterwards, and donations will go to All Saints church. We hope to see you there.

Also following our ongoing tradition from December 1st, our memorial Christmas tree will be on display, our star tags have been sent out and are avaliable in branch. We warmly invite you to visit our funeral home, where you can write a personal message or share a memory in honor of your loved ones and hang it on our Christmas tree. 🌟 🎄 🎩
