Teresa Goodwin 3rd Apr 2023

I have read all the other reviews and I can only echo everything that has already been said. Lyndsay is incredibly professional, caring, and most importantly, delivers perfection in every way from day one and ongoing in the days after Dad's funeral. His empathy and understanding are second to none. We had the send off for Dad exactly as we wanted it to be. His calm reassurance and our confidence in him gave us the time we needed to grieve as a family, knowing Dad and the funeral were in very safe and caring hands. Thank you Lyndsay. We will never forget what you did for us all xx

    Vale Funeral Services under the management of Lyndsay Ellis are simply the best in the business.

    From the moment we met to arrange the care of my mother who passed away over 300 miles away the service was impeccable, then the care of mum for 3 weeks until the funeral was faultless. The funeral itself was an effortless process for the family and Lyndsay personally took care of every exacting part that was needed, on the day the team were fantastic and made everything run perfectly - Thank you - I have used Vale Funeral Services many times before and would not hesitate to recommend Lyndsay and his team to anyone.

    Lyndsay Ellis replied
    Thank you for your kind words. I hope that I carried out everything to the high standards we are known

If we needed advice, Lyndsay and his team was at the end of the telephone, with sympathy and knowledge. I would highly recommend their service to anyone suffering the loss of a loved one. This is not a just a job to Vale funeral Service, it's a Vocation. Thank you so, so much for the dignity and respect that you gave every aspect of my husbands funeral Lyndsay and team.

  • 5 Sarah Parrish 2nd Aug 2022

    Lyndsey did everything that we asked and went above and beyond. He spent countless hours finding a nearly impossible song for the service to make sure everything was perfect for Sean.

    He was always available day or night to address any concerns and kept me informed of everything from the day Sean went to them until the service. It was so comforting to know that Sean was being looked after so well.

    Lyndsey - thank you for everything you have done for our family and for your care of Sean.

    Lyndsay Ellis replied
    Thank you Sarah for your lovely testimonial, the music was a test but between us both we got there. Such an amazing tribute to Sean and he will be greatly missed by many. I hope that everything else was carried out to the high standards I am known
    Thoughts and prayers remain with you all

    Lyndsay Ellis replied
    Thank you so much for your kind words, as everything knows I have very high standards and hope that this showed during the arrangements and on the day of the funeral. To see so many people attend shows how loved and missed Jason will be. My thoughts and prayers remain with you all as a family
