Anne Ogden 30th Aug 2022

I would like to firstly thank everyone at A.J Coggles Wisbech for their  support after the death of our mother Mrs Sheila Davies . Sarah greeted myself and my brother with respect and dignity she made the whole process easy , at the time we were both dreading making those final arrangements but it was as is Sarah just  lifted the weight and took on the responsibility.  The attention to detail and the organisation was absolutely second to none if Sarah said she would sort something  it was done . Our needs as a family  were given the gentle    support needed not too much not to little .  Mum was given the greatest respect and we felt she was safe and cared for  during her stay at Coggles . Again the attention to detail made all the difference.  As a team or a family as they all like to be known as ,they all deserve the utmost praise its almost as if they all have a special bond a six sense reading between the lines supporting each other and the family this is truly a well organised  team with excellent  communication skills.   Sarah chose Allan to take the service she couldn't have  made a better choice  he was excellent on the day he was kind thoughtful and made us feel comfortable in the knowledge  that the  service would be fluent and run smoothly which it did  .  I guess what I really want to say is Thank-you all so very much .  Anne Ogden  daughter  David Davies son

Very great service that they provide and made the hole experience easier as they were there every step of the way 

Maureen Pearce 1st Aug 2022

The care, compassion and attention to detail shown to our family throughout the whole process was there completely to support us on that final, emotional day. We felt we and the loved one were in good hands throughout. Our wishes were understood, our queries answered kindly and straightforwardly. This is a true family business which other families have trusted and turned to for more than 150 years, and it is easy to see why. A great help when needed.

  • 5 Richard Johnson 29th Jul 2022

    We were very impressed from start to finish with the service A J Coggles offers. 




    We met Sarah Anderson two days after my wife died. She met us in my garden, where she talked to me and my daughter about the administration and practicalities and we were able to start the ball rolling, making decisions during the afternoon. 




    Sarah looked after my wife from when she arrived at Coggles right up until the crematorium. She took great care in my wife's appearance and when I saw her, she looked the best I had seen her look in months. Peaceful, as if she was asleep. 




    The service was conducted very smoothly and we didn't have to worry about a thing, everything was arranged and ran to schedule.
    Thank you.

    From the first contact with Sarah this service has been amazing. Sarah talked us through each stage, giving us the time to arrange the funeral as my mum wanted, with nothing being too much trouble. The little dog is beautiful.
    We asked to view my mum in the beautiful wicker basket and Sarah was brilliant giving the time without rushing to chat with use putting us at easy.
    Sarah continued with great communication right up to the day of the funeral.
    The cars, basket and gentlemen where also amazing. At every stage I felt supported and not rushed with a time limit.
    Top service, highly recommend.

    From the start Sarah made me feel very much at ease talking about the funeral, on the day of the funeral Steve conducted a short service. Funerals are not something you do every day but  A.J. Coggles made it easier for me to deal with.                      Many thanks Colin Fitzwalter.

    The service we received at our difficult time was first class , nothing was too much trouble and anything we wanted was done down to every detail, as a family we really was treated with love and respect, the 2 lady’s that looked after us, Sarah and Sam was so nice , kept me updated on anything they was doing towards the funeral and rang to ask questions incase there was something that we didn’t want and David who did dads funeral was also as pleasant and put us at ease the day before and during the funeral, if there is anyone who says they are better than these I don’t believe it …. Amazing and forever thankful
