Excellent caring service provided by Lindsey from the first office visit to the actual day of the cremation. Simon and his team provided an excellent service for the cremation service.

I have sadly had to use JF Clarke & Sons twice in last 5 months, I cannot rate the professionalism, caring, empathetic support highly enough, as we were guided through arrangements in organising funeral for my love ones. Tim our point of contact was amazing, softly spoken and genuinely cared and understood my distress & upset at such sad time and gently suggested what I need to put in place, making everything so much easier. Tim arranged everything from flowers, to music and even gave our eulogy at the crematorium in a very professional manner. I highly recommend JF Clarke services With many thanks, appreciation Nichola, H & E
