    Breckland Funeralcare provided an excellent service with the funeral arrangements for our mum.

    From start to finish we were treated with kindness and care by everyone.


    Special thanks to Howard and Elaine  who made regular phone calls to make sure we were ok. Also, thank you to Howard for finding and providing the music for the service.

    They went out of their way to make everything possible, even the walk up the hill with the coffin in the pouring rain, at our request. Thank you all.

    From our first conversation to the last, the staff at Breckland Funeral Care have been first class.  Lindsey and Elaine had just the right balance of compassion and knowledge to lead us through all the paperwork and procedures.

    My first conversation was with Lindsey and she was genuinely interested in finding out as much information about our late Mother as possible so that she could say something about her at her cremation.

    A first class service - well done and Thank You
