Lee led us sensitively through the options for our mother’s funeral and cremation, encouraging the whole family to be involved. Although it was a small and simple affair it meant so much for us to be able to say goodbye to our loved one in this way. Thank you so much.

From our first meeting with Lee to our last, we found Lee to be very likeable, helpful in everyway, excellent communication and can't thank him enough. He made an extremely hard time a little easier to manage. We will highly recommend Freedom Funerals to family and friends in the future, cannot fault his service and his commitment. Thank you Lee, from Tony, Mandy & Tim

About Us
Funeral director Lee Jaschok and his friendly team are on call day and night, to support people in Colchester community and wider area, when somebody dies.
They believe that families should be able to arrange the funeral they really want, from a simple traditional service to a bespoke ceremony that reflects how someone lived their life.
A member of the Association of Green Funeral Directors, this considerate Colchester funeral home can tailor a woodland burial for your loved one, or a full traditional funeral, listening to families from the moment they first call and providing sympathetic support and advice.
It’s important to Lee and his team that families have the freedom to choose options that also suit their budget. This Essex funeral home believes in clear pricing with no hidden costs and respectful consideration of every family they serve. Payment plans are also available.
Freedom Funerals provides a wealth of funeral choices to help families personalise their loved one’s funeral, from Cadillac and campervan hearses, to coffins with meaningful motifs.
For people planning ahead, the Colchester funeral home provides a free Funeral Wishes service, while bereaved families can take their time to decide upon memorial masonry, remembrance jewellery and plaques available. For families who live further away, this funeral home can also provide a headstone cleaning and maintenance service.
Call Freedom Funerals for sympathetic care and practical support in arranging a meaningful funeral for your loved one.
