We could not have got through the process if it was not for Michael at Pinders. He was informative, respectful and so calming from start to finish. We were able to take everything at our own pace and all arrangements were made by Michael, meaning no added stress to us. I would 100% use Pinders again

Mary Fiori 9th Jul 2023

From start to finish the professionalism was evident . Tom came to take our beautiful mum to get her ready for her final journey, he returned to discuss our plans and mums wishes , he was supportive, dignified and the family history of Pinders shon through .He explained every step and made all the finer detail come to fruition, nothing was too much trouble -when visiting the Chapel of rest the staff members were supportive, understanding and made us feel mum was being treated with the highest dignity and care we could ask for -Tom was absolutely fabulous, a true professional in his field -we could not have asked for anything more than the beautiful send off and celebration of our mums life, all made possible by Pinders - We thank you from the bottom of our hearts -you simply are the best .

Helen Bell 5th Jul 2023

John and his team offered a way to navigate a very difficult time in our lives, dealing with us in a kind, compassionate and respectful manner but without any of the mournful looks you often get! He and the rest of the team were cheerful in appropriate moments and always totally open and professional. The cars were immaculate and all other services were wonderful. Our son had the best send off we could have hoped for, although it’s something you’d hope you never do.

    My brothers and I are very pleased with the service provided by Jacqui and colleagues at W E Pinder. They were friendly and approachable yet professional and compassionate at all times. They took a lot of stress out of a difficult time by taking care of everything including arrangements with both the florist and venue where we had refreshments after the funeral. 
    We are very grateful to Jacqui and colleagues for the part they played in giving our mum a fitting tribute and a funeral that was entirely in accordance with her wishes.

  • 5 Stephen Hill 9th May 2023

    By using W E Pinder Funeral Directors the whole process became almost effortless. This is the first funeral I had organised and John Pinder and his team made it easy to arrange through generations of experience in the business. They organised the coffin, the vicar, the flowers, the burial arrangements and providing the headstone and inscription, etc. In terms of the funeral itself it was timed to perfection. I would highly recommend W E Pinder Funeral Directors.

  • 5 Dean Headland 27th Feb 2023

    All we can say is if you want an honest, ethical, kind and sensitive funeral director, look no further than John Pinder, he is top notch.

    From start to finish John's wealth of experience, knowledge and attention to detail coupled with his gentle manner has given us much reassurance that we were giving my Father the best care on his final journey. My extended family have used W.E. Pinder for all our dear departed loved ones for many, many years. They have always given us excellent service during the most difficult of times and treated our loved ones with dignity and respect.

  • 5 Julie Kong 26th Feb 2023

    At a time of distress I could not praise WE Pinders and specifically Michael Towle enough. Compassionate and highly professional from the first meeting to the conclusion. Took away a lot of worry because I knew that everything was in their safe hands. High recommended.
