A funeral notice in Norwich says
Returned to source.
Does anyone know what this means?

My guess would be 'returned to maker'

I agree with Mo, but I don't like that at all

Same guess here Mo, bit of an odd phrase. but maybe it was some sort of "in-family" private "joke" ?

How odd. I agree with Liz, must be a family joke.
doesn't sound a very nice phrase as it is.

I have had a google for the phrase and it seems to be used in connection with traditions and beliefs in Jewish, Roman, and alernate religions?
