Tank hearse funeral

Pepperdine Barrett Funeral Directors turned heads in the streets of Chorlton-cum-Hardy, in Manchester, when the funeral cortege was followed by a tank hearse.

John Barrett, who is the son of Frank Barrett, the Managing Director, was very surprised when a local family requested the tank hearse. It was certainly the first tank hearse funeral Pepperdine Barrett Funeral Directors has dealt with and the first tank hearse funeral in the North West.

Frank said: “Alternative hearses and funeral vehicles are becoming more and more commonplace in today’s society, and as funeral directors we have to ensure that we carry out those wishes to ensure that these lasting memories will stay with our families forever.

“I am certain we will see more and more of these types of alternative hearses being used.”

Pepperdine Barrett Funeral Directors, incorporating R Pepperdine & Sons Ltd, would like to thank the staff at “Tanks Alot” who are based in Northamptonshire.
