Business Management team Kim Barton
When you meet the team, you may meet Kim who has been with the company for years now, and has a wealth of funeral related experience over two decades. She is responsible for the entire company administration from anything related to invoices and payments to insurance, and dealing with all the office staff. Kim does so much more and I can hear here ringing my phone already. I would need a long paragraph to include it all and I am very lucky to have her great ability and her friendship.
Operation and Facilities Management team Lee Hawden
So far, Lee has evaded the lense! However his time will come have no fear. Keep looking over your shoulder Lee! In the meantime. Here is Lee posing whilst collect the keys to the latest fleet. Lee ensures all the physical needs of the company are covered. He makes sure everyone is where they need to be, when they need, and with the correct vehicles and equipment. Again it sounds simple enough, but with five offices and, all the workshop staff, and the great attention to each and every funeral. Its quite a position. Lee is funeral history in his DNA. In fact if you could snap off a finger you would see ‘I was born a funeral director” running right through him. Highly skilled, and highly prized by the company, you’ll be in safe hands. That’s a promise.
Jo Amos Funeral Director team
Jo is our resident Funeral Director at Bearsted. A lady of great talent and ability. I think I need to say, mother and grandmother. (Jo will tell me to remove that I think) Loving, caring, and professional. You can be totally assured of her commitment to your needs.
Fearn Braidwood Funeral Directors Assistant
Fearn. What can I say. Just the gentlest soul. Ever so slightly, and in the loveliest way, crazy as a box of frogs. And she will be rushing around trying to find the box of frogs now I’m quite sure. Off to the river to release them…. There she goes…….
Sam Witt Funeral Directors Assistant
Sam is our latest member of staff. Usually found supporting Jo, and meeting and dealing with families at the Bearsted office. We all hope that she will one day become our newest Funeral Director. But don’t let on! Funeral Directors Assistant is a critical role in this busy office. Ensuring continuity of contact with clients and outside agencies, Sam is vital to the smooth running of the service we provide.
Rik Moore Funeral Director team
Rik is quite the character, and he will hate that. But the most dedicated and caring of Funeral Directors. Rik has a wealth of funeral experience going back many years, and brings real dedication to his work here at the Barming office. His office he tells me! His standard of thoroughness is an example to all. When you deal with Rik (please call him Rik) you can just let him do it all. And it will be done. A Rock & Roll enthusiast at home but we don’t hold that against him.
I caught him making tea one day and I love this picture of him. Great guy.
Tara Phipps Funeral Director team
Another one to sa far elude the camera. But fear not, she will be got!
Tara is the resident Funeral Director at the lovely village office in Headcorn. Tara is a very kind and gentle lady and you can be assured of great attention to detail and thoroughness in her dealings with your family.
