After attending a previous family funeral I had no hesitation in choosing them when my wife passed away recently. The empathy and compassion they showed for me and the family was outstanding. I cannot fault them in any way. Gary and Sue always made us feel at ease during what is a very stressful time for a family.

We chose to use Chamberlains (Bloxwich branch) for my partner Tony. Gary and Sue what a great team they are. Their care, help, kindness, advice, and support were excellent.  Gary conducted an excellent service for him, our family and friends remarked on how well it all went.  Presentation was first class, we couldn’t have wished for anything better.  They will always be highly recommended as other family members have used their services in the past.  Many thanks  Sheena and family.

    The service that we received from Gary and Sue at Chamberlain’s was outstanding from first contact and all the way through. They kept me informed at every stage and were so caring, addressing any concerns that I had and putting my mind at rest. On the day of the funeral Gary made sure that everything was done to make the day as easy as possible for the family. Kind, compassionate and caring. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

  • 5 Lorna Williams 4th Oct 2023

    Sue and Gary at Chamberlain Funeral Directors Bloxwich were friendly and respectful and responding to all requests and calls in a professional and timely manner, communicating effectively with each other, me and other family members involved.

    Communication and, instruction was clear and respectful on the day of the funeral with all members of the team knowing their role and carrying this out to a very high standard.

    The high standard of service received by Chamberlain's enabled the Williams family to give glory to God and celebrate Dave's life as he deserved. Lorna

    The care and compassion we received from Chamberlains was fantastic. We used their services for the funeral of my father, as soon as we was greeted at the door I knew this was the place, you could feel their kind, warm caring energy and nothing was too much to ask for. They made one of the hardest times possible that bit easier and felt so much comfort every step of the way. We received so much positive feedback from relatives and friends on how beautiful everything was on the day, would definitely recommend Chamberlains to anyone.

    From our first meeting with Sue through to the arrangements on the day of Mom’s funeral with Gary and the team, we have been welcomed in a kind, warm professional manner. Everything was well organised and we were listened to and cared for.

  • 5 Adam Lunt 16th May 2023

    Speaking to both Gary and Sue I I knew immediately that I had made the correct decision to to let them carry out the funeral service for my late brother.
    Their care and understanding was matched only by their professionalism.
    From the smallest of details to the biggest of decisions I could find no faults with Gary and his team.
    I would have no hesitation in recommending Chamberlains to anyone looking for a caring, understanding and professional funeral directors.

  • 5 Dawn Jeffrey 7th Apr 2023

    A funeral I think is the most traumatic event you will ever attend especially when it’s a parent or a partner but both Sue and Greg at chamberlain’s made it the most special day none of us were particularly religious and didn’t want a religious service in fact we didn’t want anyone outside of the closest of family and friends. Sue took us through all our options and gave us time to ask questions etc and kept everything quite light hearted but professional and allowed us time to share memories with each other. We decided on PURE CREMATION PLUS which was a very informal get together of 10 of us in a small room within the funeral home and Greg led with words one of us had wrote for him and Greg had sourced the most perfect poem and music for us to reflect and shared some beautiful words he allowed us time with our loved one. Afterwards we were led to another room and it was explained that our loved one would go to Cannock chase crematorium the following day and we would get a phone call to collect ashes. We were given drinks (hot & cold) and we were given time to share our memories and stories. We can’t thank Greg & Sue enough for everything they have done for us to have our perfect send off for our beloved. We are all so happy with EVERYTHING chamberlains has done we are all in the process of making arrangements for our own funerals with them.

    Thank you so much Dawn for this five star review. It is Gary not Greg. We really appreciate your feedback.

  • 5 Anthony Parkes 6th Apr 2023

    The service provided was amazing and so respectful, couldn't ask for anything better than what we received also the care they provided for my mother while she was in their care was out of this world and I can't be more thankful for them looking after her as good as they did, I also am very grateful for their patience and support throughout the whole process.

  • 5 Kerry Wootton 5th Apr 2023

    I partnered with my cousin ( Iris' daughter) who lives in Portugal and suffers with chronic illnesses. Chamberlains were initially selected on their empathy, speed of response, attention to detail, fairness of price and, most of all their professionalism. Speaks volumes of selecting a small, independent family run business compared to a number of other organisations which were part of a larger group and who adopted a clinical, take it or leave it approach.

    My Aunt had specific requests for her cremation/funeral service which were 'outside' the norms of a traditional service. Gary Lewis and his team worked with us to find solutions to meet my Aunts requests - some he had never encountered before. He and his team did this by actively listening and working with us to find the right solution in a timely, empathetic and customer-first orientation. We felt important, and getting it right was indeed right.

    As my cousin could not attend the cremation service in person and because a number of my Aunts former neighbours in Wales could not travel to the service we added the 'webcast' option. Again, specific 'outside' the norm requests were made of Gary and the team and once again solutions were found.

    The service itself was a true celebration of my Aunt's life and people commented how they left uplifted afterwards.

    Later, Gary and the team organised the burial of her ashes with those of my Uncle (which had been kept in safe keeping by Chamberlains). Unfortunately I contracted covid just before the burial date - but Gary and his team carried on with the arrangements and delivered a personal and professional occasion. Again a number of attendees commented on their quality and caring, professional approach.

    Chamberlains delivered way above our expectations, Thank you to Gary and his team.

    I was so impressed by their service that I am in the process of preparing funeral care plans with Chamberlains for my wife and myself, hoping the event is some way away!.

    I cannot pay them a greater compliment than trusting them with our final journeys.

  • 5 Louise McLeod 4th Apr 2023

    My sisters,brother and myself cannot thank Chamberlain's funeral directors enough for showing us great empathy and such a caring approach as we were arranging our late moms funeral. From the minute we sat with Gary we felt at ease as he made such a difficult process feel not so daunting as we were new to everything that was about to happen. From the first meeting and up until the day of our moms funeral Gary kept us in the loop always showing a caring attitude at this sad part of our lives. I cannot recommend them enough as they really care about the families and ensured that we were not alone through the journey, from helping us to choose everything and not pressurising us to make any quick decisions so as to make our moms funeral as special and meaningful to us as we could possibly hope for it to be. If anyone is looking for a caring funeral directors we all strongly recommend Chamberlain's as when you have such a sad occasion to plan for Chamberlain's will truly put everything into perspective and try and make the process a little easier for everyone. Our late moms funeral was planned to perfection for her and it was all down to the caring and patience of Chamberlain's.

    Thank you Louise for this detailed and heartfelt review. It is gratefully received.
