A massive thank you to Sarah and the team for their compassionate and extremely professional guidance in the organisation of my mothers funeral. Nothing was too much effort and thanks to their understanding, a sad occasion became a memorable celebration of life. Should I require these services again, I would personally request for Sarah, Lorna and the team to organise everything.

This was the best experience I could have expected when dealing with the cremation of my mother. Sarah from the Drayton office was absolutely excellent in understanding what we needed, what was the best for our needs and made it the easiest undertaking of my mothers passing. I can't rate her and the company highly enough. I wish there were more people out there who were able to give such capable and easy service. Thank you very much guys.

    I would like to say a huge thank you to both Sarah C. and David W. from Drayton Funeral Care for organising my partner's funeral. It was the hardest time in my life going through the bereavement, and it was the first time for me, and I did not know anything about organising a funeral, but Sarah and David made the whole process easy and painless for me. Sarah and David are both so professional and genuinely nice people, and I can't praise them enough! The whole process was really smooth and I could not have asked for anything better. David showed his compassion and understanding and supported me when I needed support. Sarah has such a great sense of humour and managed to make me smile, even in the saddest time of my life, when laughter seemed to be unthinkable! I highly recommend Drayton Funeral Care! Kristina.
