What we do
Compassionate, Personalised Farewells
At K J Lack Independent Family Funeral Service, we offer a range of funeral options to reflect the life, wishes and values of your loved one. Whether you are looking for a traditional ceremony, a simple farewell, or something entirely personal. We’re here to guide you with care, dignity and experience.
Direct Cremations from £1680
A direct cremation is for people who are looking for a simple cremation to take place where there is no service required. This would occur by bringing your loved one into our care and then arrange a suitable time and date for the cremation to take place at Torquay Crematorium, whilst overseeing and organising the necessary paperwork. A simple cremation coffin would be used and your loved one would be dressed in either one of our gowns or own clothes of your choice, giving you the choice to come and view your loved one within office hours at no extra charge. On the day of cremation, a small floral tribute will be placed on top of the coffin. Once the cremation has taken place, the ashes will be returned to you or we can hold them until you are ready to make a decision.

Services at The Spanish Barn
We at K J Lack are delighted to give families a historic alternative venue to celebrate the life of a loved one, funeral services can take place at the Spanish Barn, one of Torquay’s most historic and characterful buildings. Situated within the grounds of Torre Abbey, the Spanish Barn offers a remarkable setting that combines centuries of history with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. Unlike a traditional crematorium chapel, the Spanish Barn allows families greater flexibility and less time constraint, creating a service that truly reflects the personality, interests and life story of their loved one. With seating for 170 people, and able to accomdate up to 200 people inside with standing room at the back, it is the perfect venue if you require somewhere more unique.
Traditional Funeral
A traditional funeral service often includes a church or crematorium service, a hearse led procession, and time for loved ones to gather and pay their respects. These services can be fully customised and are arranged with great attention to detail, upholding the traditions that matter most to you.
GREEN BURIALS
Green Burials are perfect for people who love the freedom and tranquillity of the outdoors, a place to come and reflect on your loved one’s life in the quietness of the countryside.
Religious and Non-Religious Services
We work closely with local clergy and faith leaders to arrange funeral services that reflect your spiritual beliefs. From Christian and Catholic services to funerals of other faiths, we ensure every aspect of the ceremony is respectful, meaningful and true to your loved one’s religious traditions.
For those who prefer a secular approach, we offer non-religious funerals led by experienced celebrants or family members. These services focus on the individual’s life and legacy, often including music, personal stories and readings- without religious content.
