The funeral service that caters for everyone’s needs

Julia Ann Sedgwick-Smith

(4th May 1938 - 21st December 2023)

In loving memory of Julia Ann Sedgwick-Smith who passed away peacefully at Epsom Hospital on 21st December 2023, aged 85 years.

Julia (who preferred to be called ‘Julie’) was the amazing matriarch of the extended Wright, Palmer and Sedgwick-Smith families. She was the glue that kept the families bonded together with love. She was simply the best. ❤️

Julie was a wonderful daughter, sister, wife, mother, step mother, nan, aunt and great grand mother.

She was a ray of sunshine who lit up the room wherever she went. She was funny, kind, thoughtful, caring, down to earth and an inspiration to all. She loved family gatherings, parties, dancing and drinking the occasional glass of red wine!

Julie was loved and revered by a wide circle of life long friends and former work colleagues. She will be sadly missed.

Julie’s funeral Service will take place at the North East Surrey Crematorium, Lower Morden Lane, Morden. Surrey, SM4 4NU at 3.20pm on Wednesday 7th February 2024. Dress code – please supplement with something pink or cobalt blue.

By request, family flowers only please. Donations can be made on the Just Giving section on this page to ‘British Heart Foundation’ or sent to Alan Greenwood & Sons, 25, The Street, Ashtead, Surrey, KT21 1AA. A donation box will also be available in the Crematorium Chapel.

Dear Mr Alan Greenwood, I cannot thank you and your team in Bookham enough, for the excellent service they provided in every respect in the Cremation of my wife.

Your resident Funeral Consultant Mary fully explained all we needed to understand and advised the options available to us.

Her in depth knowledge of all the service providers including, Order of Service, authors and print selection, Celebrant, Hall and refreshments.

So many things which without her I would have been lost.

In the past few days I have received so very many complements and praise for the service you gave.

Do please allow other potential clients to share our experience.

Yours sincerely

Terry Eves-Thorpe

“I would like to say a big thank you for everything. I had nothing to worry about, it all went so smoothly from the day of his death to the end of the funeral and in the circumstances could not have been better. Thank you so much.

I don’t have a great deal of experience in these matters, but compared to the other funeral directors I had to deal with, Greenwoods are the tops and you personally were a pleasure to deal with, you hit absolutely the right note.”

Ann Bishop

“To all that it concerns, thank you seems hardly enough for making our Pops (William Hadaway) day very special with love and dignity from the beginning to the end you all made the day very special as well as his wishes you were there for all the family and made it a bit easier for us all to handle, couldn’t have wished for anything more. Many thanks again.”
