Andrew Needham 6th May 2024

I cannot thank Andrew and his entire staff enough for their professionalism and personalised service during the entire process of arranging and conducting my mother’s funeral. At a time when a family is grieving, to have a group of people like Thornalley guide, and lead you through the process with such grace is invaluable. The attention to detail was remarkable, no matter what we asked they were responsive and attentive to our needs.

  • 5 Catherine Greenhill 2nd May 2024

    The service I received from Thornalley was kind and professional, from the very first meeting right through to the funeral. They are a well organised family team and took a lot of the stress and worries out of a particularly hard and unexpected situation. It's rare and refreshing to find a business that is so on the ball. Much appreciated, Catherine.

    Throughout the whole process of arranging my wife's funeral all the staff at Thornalley were very helpful and attentive and made the process as painless as possible under the circumstances. Advice was given with regards all aspects of the funeral which was very helpful. Contact was made at every stage to inform me of any progress and needs.

    From the first phone call and then the personnel contact you feel comfortable with the supportive guidance and dignity associated during the emotional time during all elements of the funeral. As a family run business you feel the bond from one family to another making the whole journey that much more meaningful and fulfilling.The continued support will only help us come to terms with the grief and sadness that comes with this difficult part in life itself.
