We have used Deighan’s twice now within the last four months and both times they have been first class.  Every contact is dealt with professionally and with care.  Everyone we have been in contact with have been excellent.

Peter Hannis 7th Apr 2022

Wonderful caring service, they were respectful to the whole family Would definitely recommend

Karla Heyes 6th Apr 2022

When my father passed away two weeks ago, my family and I felt our whole world fall apart. We were filled with a mixture of grief, worry and uncertainty. I wanted to be able to pass on out heartfelt thanks to the wonderful team at Deighan's Funeral Parlour for helping us through this very upsetting time. From the moment Ian came to our house to collect my dad, we felt he and us were in their safe and caring hands. We were treated with kindness and respect throughout and are very grateful for all their support. Thankyou, from all the Family

    Shirley Deighan replied
    We was very saddened to learn of Leonards passing, but I am sure you'll agree he is where he wants to be by Kathleen's side. I certainly doesn't make it any easier for those they leave behind, but I'm sure you'll agree he had a lovely send off and service by Ian and Katie was honoured to conduct the cortege.

    Shirley Deighan replied
    Thank you for your review Peter. Katie took such privilege in conducting Cyril's cortege and it was such a pleasant send off, Ian took great pride in delivering a lovely service with his nearest and dearest to bid farewell.

    What a lovely review Karla. I am so pleased to hear Ian and Katie took such care and compassion collecting Dad that night and you was reassured throughout.
    His funeral was such a moving day and what a great turn out with the classic Morris Minors and Rovers, parading Dad through the streets on his final journey, it certainly turned some heads and we had such lovely comments.
    The team are delighted you felt the kindness, respect and support from us all here at Deighan's.

    Shirley Deighan replied
    Thank you for your review Stephanie, we are so glad that we could help when you needed it most. It was a privilege to look after Stephen for you and the family. He had a very pleasant send off with Ian creating a lovely send off that Stephen deserved.
  • 5 Chris Smith 8th Mar 2022

    Would highly recommend, lovely friendly people, nothing was to much trouble from start to finish. 

    Shirley Deighan replied
    Thank you for the review Chris. It was an honour for me, Katie and Ian to look after Mum and the Family. Ian created a lovely service for Dad and delivered, with pride the service he very much deserved at the beautiful Charnock Richard.
  • 5 Andrew Lane 1st Mar 2022

    The staff at Deighan's showed us nothing but the utmost respect, and undertook my fathers funeral with 100% care and dignity. Nothing was too much trouble for them, especially Ian who mainly dealt with us. I can't thank them or praise them enough.

  • 5 Deborah Lane 22nd Jan 2022

    Excellent from start to finish . Nothing was too much trouble , so helpful ,caring & professional, treated our loved one as one of their own, so respectful I highly recommend Deighans funeral parlour.

  • 5 Christine Parrish 19th Jan 2022

    All the staff at Deighan's Funeral Parlour are caring, professional and went above and beyond to create a perfect service for my Husband. Everybody who attended the service said it was carried out with the upmost respect. Ian was very kind, supportive and listened to everything I wanted and made some really good suggestions. The order of service they produced was perfect. It was so nice to know your loved one was with people who genuinely cared about them. The whole team showed kindness, respect and a truly professional manner at all times.
    The added touches on the day went above and beyond expectations.
    Shirley led the cortege from our home and once at the crematorium showed respect to my husband and lead the procession by walking up the long driveway. This was very touching. My family and myself are truly grateful for all the support and care offered to us during a very sad time.
    I cannot recommend them highly enough.
    From the family of Gerry Porter

  • 5 Carole Howard 10th Dec 2021

    If you are looking for a personal, caring service for loved ones who have passed away, then look no further than Deighan’s. 
    Ian, Shirley and Kate could not have been more helpful and I would now call them friends. 
    Excellent, caring service at the most difficult of times. Thank you! 

  • 5 Veronica Partington 28th Nov 2021

  • 5 Chris Cartwright 16th Nov 2021

    I would like to take this time to thank Deighan’s funeral Parlour in Adlington,Chorley,in particular I found Katie very friendly and personable.She informed me all the way through the process and I feel everything was dealt with efficiently.My wife sadly passed away and I had no experience of arranging a funeral.Katie helped me with our options and guided me,and arranged my wife’s cremation,which felt like a weight had been taken off my shoulders,especially during the grieving process,which is a hard enough time.My wife was delivered back to us,and I couldn’t speak highly enough of the funeral team,but especially Katie.In addition,she was very professional and warm,and I feel they delivered to my expectations.Thank you

  • 5 Michelle Turner 5th Oct 2021

    Unfortunately we have had to use Deighans twice in the last 10 months for both of our parents. Both Ian and Ryan are an absolute credit to the company so kind and respectful on both occasions and genuinely compassionate, outstanding service all round and a beautiful send off for our Mum and Dad. Thank you so much!
    Michelle,Andrew, Michael & Mark.

  • 5 Adam Morris 27th Sep 2021

    Losing someone so close to you and attempting to plan a funeral for the first time was daunting. However, everyone from Deighans funeral parlour was just amazing from the outset. As a family we were treated with warmth, compassion and kindness throughout. Each one of them listened to what we wanted dad's day to be like and they delivered above & beyond our expectations. It was a weight off our shoulders to know that dad was being looked after so well and that we could leave the planning to such kind, considerate and friendly professionals. We will be eternally grateful to Shirley, Ryan, Ken and Ian for organising what turned out to be a wonderful Thanksgiving of the life of our dad Alec & I cannot recommend their service highly enough. From all the Boyle family we thank you all so much. Take care and best wishes Andrew, Emma and Craig

    Funeral of Eileen Crutchlow:

    Can't thank Dieghans Funeral Parlour enough for making the most difficult time of our lives the best it possibly could have been. From the very first time of contacting them until the day of the funeral, they were amazing and always there to answer any questions we had and provide reassurances throughout. I loved the way they introduced us into the chapel of rest to see mum by telling her she had visitors and looking after her in the same room throughout her time there.
    We couldn't have asked for better support from Ian and Ryan on the day of Mums funeral. Ryan was so professional and friendly and looked after my dad by walking with him into the crematorium. Ian is also so lovely and we couldn't have asked for a better service for my mum. It was so personal and he had listened to everything we had said and was also very professional throughout bringing some well needed and appreciated humour too which we loved. A lovely team of people they all are. Can't thank them enough at what has been a really rubbish time xxx

  • 5 Sally Clarke 18th Sep 2021

    I just wanted to thank on behalf of my family all at Deighan's, in particular Ryan Hough for the way our father Squire Heywood's funeral arrangements were carried out. Ryan was absolutely brilliant and helped to make a very daunting task as easy and comfortable as possible for all the family. We are so very grateful.
