From my initial phone call to Shirley right the way through to the service itself they could not have been kinder or more professional. Ryan put me at my ease and explained everything thoroughly and Rai did a fantastic job on the day...I had loads of comments from family and friends about how good he was. Thank you Deighans.

Susan Hough 14th Jan 2024

It isn’t often that you need this service, but the one provided by the Deighan Team was just what l needed.  I would recommend them to others at the time of their loss, as much of the heartache is dealt with very professionally. Dave Green

  • 5 Cheryl Hunt 20th Aug 2023

    I would just like to say a huge thank you. Specifically to Ian, Ryan and Rebecca for helping me organise my Dads funeral and delivering it better than I could have imagined. 

    Dad passed away quite suddenly with no funeral plans in place. Within hours we had Dad collected and he was taken to Deighans in Horwich to rest. 

    The planning was made as smoothly as possible and nothing was too much trouble for them. 

    My Dad looked peaceful and comfortable in the chapel of rest, with all of his home comforts around him, it made going to see him much more bearable in such a tough time. 

    Thank you to Ian and Ryan for ensuring the day ran smoothly and giving my Dad the best send off. Ian had the perfect balance of light hearted speaking with a huge level of respect and care for my Dad and family. The perfect send off.

    Would highly recommend Deighans for their efficiency, professionalism and care.

    Thank you everyone x 

    Shirley Deighan replied
    Thank you Cheryl for taking the time to write such a kind review. It was our honor to look after Dad and support you during this most difficult time. I will pass on your kind words to the team. Warmest regards to you and your family.

    In the completely devastating death of my wife Mrs Patricia Lewis, I must say that the whole experience with Deighan’s Funeral Service was excellent.
    From the initial contact with the company, through to the Church Funeral Service and Final Committal itself, the whole process was totally professional.
    I am pleased to recommend Deighan’s Funeral Service to any individual or family who require an understanding and compassionate Funeral Service to attend to their needs at their  most difficult of occasions.
