Katie Mills Independent Funeral Service

5 Adam Moriarty Morris 29th Aug 2024

Katie, Rob and their team were nothing short of perfect from the moment we called them when my father passed away to the day of his funeral.

They helped us create a special celebration on his land and went so far above and beyond what is standard in the world of funerals.

We feel very lucky to have chosen Katie (purely based on her being female at the start!) and that she is a big believer in using alternative venues for funerals. Nothing was too much trouble for her and rob and they made several extra trips to the property to make sure everything was perfect.

They sourced extra equipment to make things easier/possible in a tricky location.

Everything was spot on and Katie and Rob were the perfect balance of professional and personal.

When my husband Ray passed away i was in mess,I had never arranged a funeral before, so i chose Katie Mills she had really good reviews so i chose her, Katie made me feel at ease at all times and made me feel a lot better she sympathised and helped me out, she treated my husband with respect at all times, I am so very pleased with the way she treated our children and made my Rays funeral so special just like my husband was, Katie never rushed me and listened to what i had to say.Katie did an amazing job of my husbands funeral and would most certainly recommend her to any one. [Got bless you Katie for such a wonderful send off of my Ray and thank you so much]

Katie and Rob were amazing, compassionate, very professional, they looked after our dad with the utmost care and were able to reassure us all, support his partner, explain everything clearly and help us give him the best send off -we would not hesitate to recommend them

Without the love and support from Katie and team, we would not have been able to give my sister the love and personal care she deserved, my family and myself would recommend Katie and her team whole heartedly, thank you so much again, you made a very hard time for us, that little bit easier. 

5 Susie Watts 24th May 2024

Absolutely amazing.
Hard working and creative to make every send off unique.

5 David Savage MBE 7th Apr 2024

From the moment I walked through the door and meet Katie she went above and beyond to make sure the difficult task of arranging the cremation of my brother went as smoothly as possible. I cannot fault the service that she provided. Her kindness and generosity of time made me feel that my brother was in safe hands from the beginning. She always made time to answer any questions that I had.
I will be recommending Katie’s funeral services to everyone.
I hope I don’t need to call on her services for a while but when I do need a funeral director again I will have no hesitation in going straight to Katie.
Thank you Katie

Katie, Rob and their whole team are simply amazing. My brother had very specific requests for his funeral and they went above and beyond to make sure his funeral was exactly what he wanted. The care that they gave my brother, myself and my family was outstanding. Kind, professional and trustworthy, I highly recommend them.

5 Paul Snowdon 2nd Mar 2024

We wanted a very special and somewhat unusual funeral for my wife. Katie was superb, nothing was too much trouble, every request was perfectly interpreted, with a smile. What followed was the most beautiful funeral we could ever have hoped for. Thank you so much Katie!!

5 Charlotte Ayres 17th Dec 2023

Katie mills and her husband have been very supportive through this whole process. Their personal touch and sensitivity is what sets them apart from the others. They cover everything. Would highly recomend. They took very good care of my dad.

5 Tanya Barter 17th Dec 2023

From the moment Katie met us at the door, we felt very welcomed and although it was a very sad time, we had a few laughs and tears discussing funeral arrangements for my Dad. Katie was so understanding, knowing when we just needed a few more moments to make decisions and never hurried us or made us feel time was an issue. Explaining things step by step supported us as a family, to make those decisions, that can be very difficult. On the day of the funeral everything was managed so well and took a lot of pressure off the family. Can not fault anything. Thank you Katie & Rob for being so brilliant!

5 Jaqui Boniface 15th Dec 2023

From the very beginning Katie took care of everything. On the day of Mums funeral, i couldn’t have asked for anything better, the little touches made such a difference to our day. Katie and her team went above and beyond and for that we will always be very grateful. Thankyou.

Katie & her team were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble, I would recommend Katie Mills independent funeral services to anybody. Katie & her team delivered the perfect funeral, at a cost well below the prices we were quoted from other companies. Highly Recommended.

5 Suzie Lees 18th Apr 2023

Katie had been recommended to me and therefore I didn’t approach anyone else. 
She was kind and caring, didn’t try to sell extras and was professional. 
On the day all her team were amazing.

5 Nurse Shears 14th Apr 2023

The service was excellent

5 Jackie Gray 30th Mar 2023

As soon as we walked into Katie's office we felt right at home, and this was the right place for us. Katie spoke to us as normal people, no hushed, reverent tones. She also spoke to me, the person paying for the funeral. She listened to our requests and put them into action and was happy to use her imagination to bring them to life. we never felt pushed or coerced or rushed in any part of the process. Both she and Rob her husband helped to make bearable what was an unbearable day in our lives. We will recommend them every time.

5 Ginny Sewell 15th Mar 2023

I would like to sincerely thank Katie and her team for the dedicated care of Nigel Butler on behalf of
myself and all of his family. In particularly the care they showed my grieving mother who took great
comfort in your kindness and compassion.
I would highly recommend Katie Mills Independent Funeral Services for their professionalism but
also because they are very approachable and caring.
The funeral was conducted by the celebrant Brian Jarvis who was recommended by Katie Mills and
he held a brilliant service with great aplomb and empathy.
Thankyou Katie Mills and team for all your dignified and caring efforts, many friends and family of
Nigel that were at the funeral or seeing it from around the world thought it was a very special
celebration of his life.
Very Much appreciated X
