Keiran was well looked after and had the perfect send off. We can’t thank you enough for making this process easy for us. 

Christine Reid 29th Feb 2024

I have to say Jodie was a godsend when my daughter and I were sorting out Trevs funeral.  She was so helpful, courteous and patient with us and advising us on what to do, what package best suited us.  I have to say thanks to her Trevs funeral was superb and went without a hitch.   So a big thank you from us to Jodie and all at the Co-op Funeralcare.

I felt that Karen and Jodie were with me every step of the way guiding and explaining what would happen. They were both at the end of the phone in case I needed any questions answered plus they phoned to check that I was ok and coping. Thank you for genuinely caring during our stressful time.

    The service and civility we received from Shannon was excellent from start to finish. She took care of all our requests, whether these were small or larger. All the staff were respectful at all times. On the day Shannon was amazing, she had so much respect for my wife and the whole family. As a family we highly recommend the company. Everything went so smoothly on the day.

  • 5 Tracy Fox 28th Jun 2022

    Although we chose a direct cremation I feel that we were given the full attention of the funeral home and staff throughout the process. We were kept informed of all details and felt that we could ask questions whenever we needed. Shannan was in constant contact with updates and checking that we were all ok. Me and my family are overwhelmed with the support we were given. Thank you for making an awful time a little easier. 

  • 5 Margaret Dixon 23rd May 2022

    My wishes were carried out as I wished and the timing on the day was very good. I would like to commend Leah for the caring and considerate way she conducted the planning with me.

  • 4 Ann Hardwick 3rd May 2022

    The staff was dignified towards mum & I.
    They kept us informed on a day to day basis… right up-to the day of his funeral.
    There was a little confusion & anxiety ~ caused over the order of mass booklets. But soon resolved… the order of mass booklets was beautiful.
    We was able to see my brother off in a peaceful environment… in which Shannan made sure to oversee any problems that may of arose on the day.

    Thank you so much

    Ann & Margaret
