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.

    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 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.

  • 5 Janice Wilson 6th Jul 2021

    Deighan's funeral parlour carried out our lovely mum’s funeral with great care and respect.  Ian and Shirley were attentive, knowledgeable and respectful at a difficult time.  Ian led the service to celebrate mum’s life and everyone who attended, either in person or remotely, commented on how lovely the service was,  Every detail was taken care of by the team which also included Katie, Ryan and David and as a family we can not thank them enough for their care and support.  We would not hesitate in recommending Deighan's to anyone looking for a genuine and caring independent funeral directors.

    Shirley Deighan replied
