You’ll Never Walk Alone by Gerry & The Pacemakers | W. Uden & Sons Funeral Directors

You'll Never Walk Alone

When you walk through a storm
Hold your head up high
And don’t be afraid of the dark
At the end of a storm
There’s a golden sky
And the sweet silver song of a lark
Walk on through the wind
Walk on through the rain
For your dreams be tossed and blown
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
Walk on, walk on
With hope in your heart
And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone

You’ll Never Walk Alone, originally from the Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel and later adopted as an anthem by Liverpool Football Club, is a powerful song of solidarity, resilience, and hope. It offers comfort in the face of hardship, reminding listeners that even in their darkest moments, they are not alone. The lyrics encourage perseverance—urging us to “walk on through the wind” and “walk on through the rain” with courage and faith. Its soaring melody and uplifting message have made it a timeless source of strength for individuals and communities alike. At its core, the song is a promise: that no matter what trials we face, there will always be love, support, and companionship to see us through.

Unforgettable by Nat King Cole feat. Ralph Carmichael & his Orchestra

Unforgettable
That’s what you are
Unforgettable
Though near or far

Like a song of love that clings to me
How the thought of you does things to me
Never before has someone been more
Unforgettable
In every way
And forevermore
That’s how you’ll stay
That’s why, darling, it’s incredible
That someone so unforgettable
Thinks that I am unforgettable, tooUnforgettable
In every way
And forevermore
That’s how you’ll stay

Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life by Monty Python & Eric Idle

Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life by Monty Python & Eric Idle

Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse
When you’re chewing on life’s gristle
Don’t grumble, give a whistle
And this’ll help things turn out for the best
And
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the light side of life
If life seems jolly rotten
There’s something you’ve forgotten
And that’s to laugh and smile and dance and sing
When you’re feeling in the dumps
Don’t be silly chumps
Just purse your lips and whistle, that’s the thing
And
Always look on the bright side of life
(Come on)
Always look on the right side of life
For life is quite absurd
And death’s the final word
You must always face the curtain with a bow
Forget about your sin
Give the audience a grin
Enjoy it, it’s your last chance anyhow
So always look on the bright side of death
A just before you draw your terminal breath
Life’s a piece of shit
When you look at it
Life’s a laugh and death’s a joke, it’s true
You’ll see it’s all a show
Keep ’em laughin’ as you go
Just remember that the last laugh is on you
And
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the right side of life
(C’mon Brian, cheer up)
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the bright side of life
Always look on the bright side of life
I mean, what have you got to lose?
You know, you come from nothing
You’re going back to nothing
What have you lost? Nothing
Always look on the right side of life
Nothing will come from nothing, ya know what they say
Cheer up ya old bugga c’mon give us a grin (Always look on the right side of life)
There ya are, see
It’s the end of the film
Incidentally this record’s available in the foyer (Always look on the right side of life)
Some of us got to live as well, you know
(Always look on the right side of life)
Who do you think pays for all this rubbish
(Always look on the right side of life)
They’re not gonna make their money back, you know
I told them, I said to him, Bernie, I said they’ll never make their money back
(Always look on the right side of life)

Wind Beneath My Wings by Bette Midler

Oh, oh, oh, oh
It must have been cold there in my shadow
To never have sunlight on your face
You were content to let me shine, that’s your way
You always walked a step behind
So I was the one with all the glory
While you were the one with all the strength
A beautiful face without a name for so long
A beautiful smile to hide the pain
Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
And everything I would like to be
I can fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings
It might have appeared to go unnoticed
But I’ve got it all here in my heart
I want you to know, I know the truth, of course I know it
I would be nothing without you
Did you ever know that you’re my hero?
You’re everything I wish I could be
I could fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings
Did I ever tell you, you’re my hero?
You’re everything, everything I wish I could be
Oh, and I, I could fly higher than an eagle
For you are the wind beneath my wings
‘Cause you are the wind beneath my wings
Oh, the wind beneath my wings
You, you, you, you are the wind beneath my wings
Fly, fly, fly away, you let me fly so high
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings
Oh, you, you, you, the wind beneath my wings
Fly, fly, so high against the sky
So high I almost touch the sky
Thank you, thank you
Thank God for you, the wind beneath my wings

What A Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

[Verse 2]
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed days, the dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world

[Bridge]
The colors of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands, saying, “How do you do?”
They’re really saying, “I love you”

[Verse 3]
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They’ll learn much more than I’ll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world.

Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Oh, yeah

At an incredibly difficult and emotional time for our family, the care, compassion and professionalism we received were truly outstanding.From the very first conversation, we felt that we were in exceptionally capable and caring hands. Every detail was handled with sensitivity, dignity and genuine kindness. Nothing ever felt rushed or impersonal, and the team went above and beyond to make sure that everything was exactly as we wanted it to be.Their communication throughout was excellent, and they guided us through every step with patience and reassurance, taking an enormous amount of pressure away from us at a time when we really needed it.The funeral itself was beautifully and flawlessly handled. Every detail came together perfectly and, most importantly, our loved one was treated with the utmost dignity and respect throughout.We will always be incredibly grateful for the kindness and support shown to our family. It takes very special people to do this work with such compassion and humanity, and the service we received was exceptional from beginning to end.A heartfelt thank you from our entire family. We could not have asked for better care.

From our first contact to our last, Uden’s made an incredibly difficult and painful time feel so much easier and more manageable.

Terry B.

We cannot thank Udens Funeral Directors enough for the care, compassion and professionalism they showed our family following the loss of my wife.From the beginning, Bina was wonderful. Assisted by her colleague, Alfie, Bina guided us through every part of planning and arranging my wife's funeral service and burial with patience, sensitivity and genuine kindness. At an incredibly difficult time, they made sure everything was handled properly and that the service reflected the person my wife was. Most importantly, we always felt that my late wife was being treated with dignity, care and respect.A special thank you also goes to Jack, who brought my wife home to us overnight before the funeral. Having her home with us one final time meant more to our family than I can properly put into words, and Jack handled such a deeply emotional moment with enormous sensitivity and respect.On the day of the funeral, Lee looked after us exceptionally well. His calm, reassuring and professional manner helped carry us through one of the hardest days of our lives. Everything was handled with dignity and without us having to worry about what needed to happen next.What stood out throughout was that we never felt as though we were simply dealing with a funeral company. Bina, Alfie, Jack and Lee treated my late wife as a person and treated us as a family who had lost someone deeply loved.Thank you to everyone at Udens for taking such good care of my wife and for helping us give her the beautiful and dignified farewell she deserved. Our family will always be grateful.

Uden's are consistently excellent family funeral directors. They are highly professional, attentive, and well-organised. We have relied on Udens for the funerals of both of my parents and my aunt. They made the event solemn, dignified, and impressive.

Movell D.

Losing mum was very difficult and finding a funeral director who was going to help us give mum the send off she deserved was really important to us. Udens were perfect. From start to finish they gave us a service that was second to none. Unfortunately we have had 2 other family funerals and comparatively, this was by far the best service. Every detail was thought of at every stage. I injured my foot during the funeral and they even provided me with an icepack.Communication was taken very seriously. Every detailed was checked before proceeding to the next stage and everything was thought of in advance. Things that we hadnt considered as a family were thought of by Udens, like taking mums finger print so that we could use it for keepsakes. They ordered ties from Barbados for all of their staff to wear at the funeral. These are the kind of touches that made them stand out.The most important thing for us as a family was that everyone at Udens was so lovely. We really felt happy and comfortable with them and we felt as though they would treat mum as they would have treated one of their own family and thats exactly what they did.Our experience of working with Uden was memorable in the best way and a very difficult time was made so much easier by their thoughtfulness and professionalism. They are a family business and they treat you like part of their family. I would highly recommend choosing them for your familiy's funeral needs.

Joan H.

The service we received was exceptional. Bina, our coordinator, left no stone unturned. Everything we requested was handled with ease. My mother-in-law was dressed as we asked, and all our wishes regarding her were respected.On the actual day, the funeral procession was extremely professional. The team showed empathy, and Lee was very respectful, engaging, and supportive throughout the day. They were outstanding and truly a credit to the firm.Thank you all for a somber yet beautiful day. It couldn’t have gone any better.
