Kathy Howell 9th Apr 2024

Thank you for making such a sad stressful time a lot easier. From making arrangements with Ellis and the recommendations for flowers, etc, to the actual service. All were carried out with sensitivity and care. Father Nicholas was very kind and understanding and his words will stay with me…. Thanks again….

    All way helpful in difficult time 

  • 5 Caroline Shook 8th Jan 2024

    As a family we felt that the service given was very caring and appropriate and considering the difficult timing being just before Christmas and then into the new year we were kept informed of all proceedings well. A heartfelt thank you to all involved. 

  • 4 Johanne Wright 8th Jan 2024

    Very good communication on the phone as I was so far away. They were patient, kind and understanding. I would have like to have been informed that the deceased’s jewellery was in their safe. 

  • 4 David Maltby 8th Jan 2024

    Two lovely ladies were sent to pick up the deceased. It was explained that he would have to come out of a chalet down some stairs.  Although they managed to get him on there stretcher I had to lift and manoeuvre it down the hallway and out the door and then they assisted in the stairs. This was a very traumatic thing to have to assist with as a relative. Disappointed this information was provided earlier and not passed on. 

  • 5 Susan Clair 5th Jan 2024

    Absolutely amazing people thank you all for your help you are all wonderful x

  • 4 Christine Knight 2nd Jan 2024

    It was great to have one number to call then things were arranged for us. Woudl have been excellent but getting the order of service sorted was a bit more faff than it needed to be, but i woudl definitely recommend (and have done so already to other family/friends!). Thank you for being so helpful during a potentially difficult time.
