Every week someone in Cambridgeshire sadly loses a beloved family member or friend and it is not always possible for families to let everyone know. Therefore, alongside our partner website, Cambridgeshire Live publishes death notices, tributes and funeral announcements every week.
The death notices also provide advice about funerals, and fundraising and often include tributes to health staff and carers. To see the full list of family announcements, you can visit the website operated by our partner funeral-notices.co.uk.
Here are the funeral announcements from Cambridgeshire last week (Saturday, June 10 to Friday, June 16).
