  • 5 Guy & Anne Barratt 28th Jun 2024

    We cannot rate Nigel Guilder's highly enough.  Sarah handled the proceedings skilfully, tactfully and very compassionately.  Lucy organised a very nice online tribute, which was lovely to share with family and friends. We felt the organisation was first rate from everyone we dealt with,  we were given all the information and support we needed at such a difficult time. Sarah recommended Hannah as a celebrant. Hannah was a very warm hearted and understanding person who expertly gave a very fitting eulogy.  We felt that the whole day went as we wished it to with the help of all the team at Nigel Guilder.

  • 5 Rosalind Hammonds 26th Jun 2024

    We are thankful, our late father chose Nigel Guilder Ltd to take care of his funeral plans.  Our Dad, Derek Hammonds was given the dignity and respect he deserved from the moment he was taken. We ourselves were put at ease, by the care, warmth and respect we also received.  A special thank you to John Firth and those who travelled to West Sussex, to make sure our late father arrived at the church on time.  Thank you for honouring our late father’s desire to be reunited with his late wife, our late mother.  A memory of a lovely funeral, we thank you all, for all you did to make this possible.

    Many thanks and God Bless you  

    Rosalind & Kenton Hammonds
