Our family received the utmost care and service throughout the whole process and the day of the funeral. A very difficult day became much more bearable for our family and fellow mourners because of the staff at Jonathan Terry. We are forever grateful.

Dominic Stevens 21st Feb 2024

Jonathan Terry have conducted a number of funerals for family and friends in recent years and I would not hesitate to recommend them. There was a bit of a hiccup with the most recent one, but this was acknowledged, apologised for and an appropriate adjustment was made in charges for their services.

A significant milestone in their journey came in December 2018 when they acquired 103 Peartree Avenue and launched the White Lily Centre, a bereavement centre offering counselling services to all. The White Lily Centre stands as a symbol of their commitment to supporting families beyond the funeral itself.

In May 2022, their services were further enhanced with the introduction of a new fleet of Mercedes hearses and limousines, ensuring that every aspect of your loved one's final journey is conducted with the utmost care and professionalism.

  • 5 Leanne Gibson 13th Feb 2024

    I can not thank the team enough for the kindness and compassion they showed to me following the death of my Mum. From day one they were with myself and my Dad at the very step. Victoria was supportive and available to answer any questions that we may have had and her compassion and professionalism on the day of the funeral was just fantastic 
    The ladies who work behind the scenes, Trish and Tracy were also kind and caring, in what must be one of the hardest jobs. Knowing that Mum was so looked after while in your care was a great comfort to us and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to others in their time of need.
