We would thoroughly re commend Mears Family Funerals; Dianne Gillard, the Manager of the Catford Branch, could not have been more helpful; she completely understood how we wanted to celebrate our mother's long life, was very friendly and efficient in all her dealings with us and did not try and persuade us to have extra "trappings"; everything ran smoothly according to plan on the day - she even managed to arrange for the sun to shine!

Having never been through this experience before, I’ve must say Yvonne and Dianne at Mears on Southend lane were none other than AMAZING CARING KIND AND THOUGHTFUL.  We as a family cannot praise these two wonderful ladies enough.  Michelle O’keeffe

  • 4 Oliver Hughes 14th Apr 2018

    The music in the crematorium was played in the wrong order, deeply upsetting people

    Lisa McDermott replied
    Dear Mr Hughes
    We were sad to read your review.
    On investigation with the crematorium, we can confirm that it was the crematorium that input the music details incorrectly into their system after receiving the correct details from us. As we have already contacted the crematorium on your behalf they have advised that you contact them directly to discuss.
    Please do not hesitate to contact us if we can be of further assistance.
    Kind regards Lisa

    Mear's were so helpful at a difficult time and guided the family on the best package to suit the occasion. The communications leading up to and on the day were perfect and the day went without a hitch as so carefully planned and executed.
