Helena Huby

Helena has always wanted to work in our profession, after working in end of life care and receiving her qualifications, she felt that her true vocation was working in funeral care. Helena is wholeheartedly kind, caring and attentive when looking after people in our care. Always making sure every detail is given and to our families she's always there to offer a cup of tea, a tissue or a hug.

Ted & Albert Walsh
Dog's Bodies
Arguably two of the most important members of the team, Ted and Albert are possibly the two most high maintenance members of staff. They act as emotional support and exercise companions. You won't see them in our Goole premises, due to their nature to destroy and shed hairs over everything they see fit but they may pop up on social media every now and again.
