A Brush with Death

Episode #76: The Queen's Funeral Director


Listen Later

In September of 2022, the world watched as Queen Elizabeth  was given a final farewell.  The world watched as every news station and social media outlet broadcast footage and provided updates on the events of her passing and services as they happened.  Meanwhile, funeral director, Tim Purves, and his staff worked on location to provide services and care fit for a monarch.  In this episode, host, Gabe Schauf, speaks with Tim about those services and how the funeral profession operates on his "side of the pond".

Tim Purves is the 5th generation owner of William Purves Funeral Directors, the largest, independent funeral business in Scotland, with a team of more than 100 staff across 25 branches in Scotland and northeast England.
