Mr John Robertson
John's family are sad to share the news that he passed away peacefully on 16th January, aged 78. John was a much loved father, grandfather, partner and a friend to many and we will miss him every day. His sons, Justin and Paul, remember a Dad who was endlessly devoted, full of love and shaped their lives for the better. A memorial service and a celebration of John's life will be held at the Baldarroch Crematorium, Banchory on Tuesday 1st February at 11.30am. All who knew and loved John are welcome to attend. We would politely request that, in lieu of flowers, friends consider making a small donation, to the SSPCA in commemoration of John's love of animals.

Attending a funeral FAQs
What should I wear?
We normally associate wearing black with going to a funeral. But it is increasingly typical for families to express a preferred dress code. Our advice is to look out for information from the family in a notice published either in newspapers, online or in the funeral director window to advise you of their preference.
How long does a service last?
Typically a service in most churches or crematoria lasts around 20-30 minutes. A formal mass may take a little longer and we would expect this to be nearer an hour. Finally, burials can vary in length as they are weather dependent.
Where should I sit?
Family and close friends typically reserve the first couple of rows in a service. We recommend sitting nearer the front than the back of a service space in order to support the family and enabling late arrivals to discreetly fill back rows.
Where should I send flowers?
Often a family will express a preference for flowers - or charity donations in lieu of flowers. We recommend you keep an eye on notices posted in newspapers, or online or in the funeral director window so you are able to follow their wishes.
