Andrew Grey Funeral Directors looked after my sister with the up most of dignity and respect, they dealt with my mum throughout what was a difficult and prolonged period of time. During her time of mourning my mum was spoken to with so much compassion. The staff at Andrew Grey showed nothing but care and support to my mum, and to myself. My sister's service was beautiful and memorable. Andrew Grey himself led my sister which was a very meaningful touch and Eileen Osbourne led a beautiful tribute to my sister. They truly did go above and beyond to make things as easy as possible and to lift some of the burdon from my mum's shoulders through a very difficult time. We cannot thank them enough and would highly recommend them to anyone. Andrew Grey Funeral Directors really do go above and beyond for their clients.

Keith's family would like to thank Andrew Grey,Kay and staff. Keith would be so pleased with the Triumph Bonneville hearse. It was beautiful and appropriate for him. The funeral director and staff did us proud and looked after us so well on the day. Kay was so caring and professional. The Reverend Steven Hill did a really good service. We cannot thank all the professional staff enough for all their help on that sad day.

Brett Dowson 7th Apr 2018

Professional, kind, excellent communications, and left no stone unturned in ensuring the funeral went smoothly. Would have no hesitation in recommending.

  • 5 Joanne Allan 26th Sep 2017

    A bereavement is such a hard time in your life - you're raw with emotion and certainly vulnerable. Our experience with Andrew Grey can only be described as 1st class! The way they looked after our loved one but also how they looked after us. Nothing at all was a problem. They rang us every day to ask how we were and the funeral itself was beautiful - we could not have asked for better!! I would HIGHLY recommend them - all of the staff were so genuinely caring and went the extra mile to ensure we felt reassured and happy with all the arrangements. Johnny was a fantastic support and we can not thank all of the staff enough! Absolutely Superb!

    Nothing was too much trouble for the staff; from the initial consultation, dealing with the coroner, Mam's GP, everyone we came into contact with treated us as if we were family and with respect, compassion and dignity. I would recommend them without question, thank you so much for arranging my Mam's last journey 🙏

  • 5 Jill Hardy 2nd Aug 2017

    Andy, who took care of my dad and us all was brilliant from the start. He made us all feel at ease and would do anything to help, ringing regularly to see how we all were and offering his help. 
    It has been a really difficult time for us all, the funeral service itself was   definitely as good as it could be, flowers recommended to us by Andy were beautiful, the humanist Michael spoke some beautiful words about dad's life, no complaints at all.
