**Claire’s Farewell Announcement**

Dear Community,

I started alongside Frank and Jill back in January 2013, and now a new chapter awaits me.

It has been a privilege to serve our wonderful community, and I will carry these cherished memories with me.

I sincerely appreciate the time spent with Alex and Phil; the unique nuances of our shared experiences in this industry leave an indelible mark on all our journeys.

To our fabulous on-call staff, removal crew, and bearers: thank you for always being there when I needed you!

To the lovely staff of crematoriums, churches, celebrants, medical professionals, solicitors, printers, embalmers, and florists—thank you for your unwavering support.

Wishing everyone a happy and healthy 2025.

Warmest wishes,
Claire Potter

(Not a place to take daily pictures, but I thought I’d leave you with some light-hearted moments, happy times and achievements… 😊)

Village Announcement

We have been asked to share the following information:

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Antony Shackleton, Shack as we all know him.

After a long battle with ALS it was Shack's wish to pass peacefully on his own terms in the arms of his wife Louise.

Funeral plans to be announced at a later date after Shack is repatriated to the UK.

Shack lived his life with dignity and his final wish was to die with dignity.

📢 Attention all! 📢 It has come to our attention that cyber criminals are taking advantage of the trust placed in our beloved crematorium, Obitus, and their 'webcasts'. 😡 Reports have shown that scammers are requesting card information and charging viewers for accessing these webcasts. 😱 It is truly disheartening to hear that some members of the public have fallen victim to these scams and shared their financial information, resulting in payments being made. In light of this alarming situation, we have taken immediate action by flagging this issue to Obitus and other key individuals in our industry. Here at F.A. Stockill and Son Funeral Services, our aim is to raise awareness and protect our families from falling into the clutches of these deceitful scammers. If you choose to share the login details for your loved one's funeral webcast on any social media platform, we kindly request that you inform your audience that they will *NEVER* be asked for payment to view the webcast. 🙅‍♂️🚫 For more information and helpful tips on how to avoid falling victim to social media funeral stream scams, please visit: [https://www2.obitus.com/blog/how-to-avoid-social-media-funeral-stream-scams](https://www2.obitus.com/blog/how-to-avoid-social-media-funeral-stream-scams) We would also like to clarify the payment process. The cost of a webcast, among other services, is already included in the crematorium's invoice to the funeral director. The funeral director then passes on this cost as a disbursement to the account holder of the bereaved family in the final invoice. 💰 Let's stand together against these scammers and protect our grieving families. Allegations of fraud and cybercrime should be reported to Action Fraud: the UK’s national fraud and cybercrime reporting centre: 0300 123 2040 or www.actionfraud.police.uk. Thank you for your ongoing support! 🤝🙏

We were honoured to officiate a remarkable gentleman’s funeral, to be back in the village of his family’s roots. A horse-drawn carriage led by four immaculate black friesians, with black plumes, gracefully brought this gentleman home in gentle style. (Thanks is given to his family for permitting this special footage)
