  • 5 Lorraine Fogg 5th Oct 2022

    from the day we got in touch with Ryan from Deighans funeral parlour we received nothing but exemplary care both for Nicholas and ourselves we were all treated with dignity and sympathy and nothing was too much trouble.On the day of the funeral Ryan was so professional in his mannerism and although absolutely chucking it down with rain he walked slowly more than once in the whole journey in front of Nicholas particularly when we approached Nicks former workplace where we parked up while colleagues and customers were able to pay their respects. The actual service at Overdale was as family and friends have told us was very fitting to Nicholas and an excellent service all thanks to Ian who led and conducted the service both professionally and made us feel like he had known Nick and us. Thank you so much Deighans and especially Ryan who is a credit to you.. and Ian who made an emotional and sad day very special x
    Lorraine,Geoff,Sarah,Rachael,Shez and Calliope

    Thank you Lorraine, it was a privilege to look after nick for you and support you all through a difficult time and give him a fitting send off to the person he is which we learned was a very well liked, caring person

  • 5 Ian Gee 25th Sep 2022

    Absolutely unbelievable from start to finish. Deighans are a credit to the industry. Personal touches such as visiting my mother's house when she couldn't bring herself to visit the parlour. The service itself was as great as it could have been and felt like there was a real personal touch to how they looked after my whole family, including my late father. Would recommend them to anyone. Special mentions to Rebecca and Ian who looked after everything and consoled my mother and held a great service. Thank you so much.

    Shirley Deighan replied
    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind review. It really was an honor to look after dad for you all. We will pass your kind words on to Ian and Rebecca.

  • 5 Jennifer Wharton 3rd Sep 2022

    Steve, 
    You have been amazing.
    From the moment you picked up my phone, your polite and calming tone of voice put me at ease. You explained everything with clear thoughtfulness and respect. Nothing was too much trouble and you made us smile at just the right moments which only added to the whole experience of absolute perfection in the best possible way. 

    The team at Deighans came highly recommended by someone we met at the Butterfly Suite at Royal Bolton Hospital, they said “you won’t be disappointed” and they were right! This family run business is successful because each individual member of the team together provide a friendly, comfortable and welcoming place to arrange the perfect celebration of life with utmost respect and professionalism. 

    Thank you to everyone at Deighans - Jen, Katharine & Alan 

    Shirley Deighan replied
    Thanks for this lovely review Jen. It was our pleasure to look after Mum and support you, Kat and Alan in giving her the very best send off possible. All the very best to you and your family.

  • 5 Dawn Hurst 10th Aug 2022

    I was impressed with the kindness, consideration and professionalism of the company.
    In a very difficult time, I felt informed, and given the opportunity to ask relevant questions that were quickly answered.
    Arranging a funeral is emotionally stressful, Shirley & Ian made the preparation easier, the service was conducted with compassion and thoughtfulness. We couldn’t off asked for more to say good bye to my husband Andrew

    Thank you so much for everything Shirley & Ian

    Many Thanks
    Dawn

    Shirley Deighan replied

    From start to finish I can’t fault the service that our family received. We knew our loved one was looked after and treated with respect. It was the personal touches that helped us at this awful time in our lives. A very caring and considerate family business.

    Thank you Trisha for taking the time to write us a wonderful review, at such a difficult and sad time for you and your family. The team here was shocked and saddened to hear of the passing of Denis at such a young age. He most certainly had the send off he deserved I'm sure you'll agree. The service by Nicola was phenomenal and made beautiful and very personal for such a sad situation. Hugs to all.
