It is possible to find out if an estranged friend or relative has died?

These are my suggestions (but not guarantees) in order of potential success:

Search the general register office death index which maintains an official register of death and if you find a likely match you can order a death certificate. https://www.gov.uk/research-family-history

The government probate search https://probatesearch.service.gov.uk/ allows you to look up willls and grants of probate. If someone died and left assets then probate may well have been applied for.

Check local death notices and funeral announcements in newspapers and try obituary sites like legacy.com, https://www.muchloved.com/
Try contacting the local council co if you have a legitimate reason to do so.

I hope these are helpful, thank you for reading.

You might find that memories of past funerals all blur into one.

The location, everyone wearing black, the hearse, limousines, top hats, flowers, urns, who was there that day… the list goes on.

In this country, traditional funeral ceremonies are still the norm - they are considered “a given”.

You’ll rarely see an alternative or eco-friendly funeral represented on television or in film.

On top of that, decision making feels so hard when you are grieving. This is one reason most people choose a “set menu” of hearses, flowers, limos and so on.
When you’re grieving, this choice can look like the most “straight-forward” way to arrange the day.

It isn’t.

When a family asks me to visit, I always ask them - “how would you like to feel on the day?”

Often this question upturns the entire concept of a funeral in their minds. They are suddenly free to choose ANYTHING.

A funeral is there for the living – for those of us left behind. They are our opportunity to say goodbye to someone special in a way that truly reflects their unique life.
