Who We Are: Compassionate Care at Jonathan Terry Funeral Directors 🌟
At Jonathan Terry Independent Funeral Directors, our mission has always been to provide the highest level of support to the families we serve. Over the years, we've reinvested in our business to ensure we meet your needs with compassion and professionalism.

🔹 In 2008, we proudly opened our London Road office to better serve families on the eastern side of Southampton, responding to your needs directly.

🔹 A commitment to excellence led us to redesign and refurbish our Peartree Avenue premises, culminating in an inviting space that was completed in 2014.

🔹 December 2018 marked a significant milestone with the launch of the White Lily Centre—a bereavement centre dedicated to offering counselling services. This centre embodies our promise to support not just during the funeral but beyond, helping families navigate their grief.

🔹 In May 2022, we elevated our services with a new fleet of Mercedes hearses and limousines, ensuring your loved one’s final journey is conducted with the utmost care, dignity, and style.

Behind the scenes, we have a dedicated team of compassionate professionals who believe wholeheartedly in their vocation. Their unwavering commitment to supporting families during their time of need is the cornerstone of our reputation for excellence.

As a truly independent business, we take pride in our strong reputation and the unparalleled service we provide throughout Southampton and beyond.

Thank you for considering Jonathan Terry Independent Funeral Directors during this challenging time. It is our honour to help you say goodbye with dignity, respect, and compassion ❤️

- 🌱 Eco-Coffins: Choose from a selection of high-quality eco-coffins that meet rigorous environmental standards.

Fame for Flossy at last as she’s featured in the Sept/Oct edition of Your Hampshire and Dorset wedding magazine 😁

Audrey went to her first car show today and it was fab !! Couple of potential wedding car clients, met fellow local owners and generally had a lovely day with lots of people chatting about their memories of dads, grandads and themselves owning a Moggy 😍. Flossy should have been there as well but the little madam decided she didn’t want to wake up this morning 🙄.

Looking for something to do this weekend ? Why not come along to the Concorde club in Eastleigh and see Audrey and Flossy in their first car show 😍

Only this morning I had a call from a family whose mum wanted a direct cremation, which has left them feeling that they have had no chance to say goodbye. So they have asked me to officiate a ceremony when her ashes are interred next to her husband. Saying goodbye is so important, and I will always remember the wonderful Dr Websters wise words “a funeral is ABOUT the deceased but FOR the living”

If you feel like giving up, please remember the reason why you held on for so long. It may take bravery for you to talk and to ask for help, but please do it. Please hold on and you will make it through.

A couple of weeks ago I had a lovely email from one of the funeral arrangers at Hinton Natural Burial Grounds saying she had been to 2 of my services and that they love me to be a celebrant for them, so today I went for a visit and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Looking forward to working in such a beautiful place 😍
