He helped families across the county for nearly 60 years.

John Tranter was the fourth generation of the family-owned funeral director L Tranter & Son, and looked after countless residents in their hour of need over a career spanning 56 years.

His son, Symon, the fifth generation of the family, said:"He took to the business straight away. His main and real only concern was for the families he looked after. The next 56 years saw many changes, improvements, and expansion to the business which now employees more than 20 people and operates three branches in St Georges, Donnington, and Newport.

Mr Tranter died on July 17 aged 81 and his funeral will be held at St George's Parish Church on Thursday, August 11, 2022 at 11am, followed by a private committal service at Telford Crematorium.
