SAIF member supplies coffin for theatre production

Funeral directors AB Walker & Son were happy to help when they had an unusual request from a professional theatre company in Reading.

Reading Between The Lines Theatre Company asked for a coffin for their production of ‘Much Ado About Nothing.’  The coffin was part of a grand military funeral on stage.  Julian Walker, managing director of AB Walker & Son, said, “We are proud to be part of the local community in Reading and we were pleased that we could help make this production a success.”

AB Walker & Son is one of Berkshire’s oldest family businesses. It was established in 1826 and is now run by the fifth generation of the family.
