  • 5 Keith Perry 8th Aug 2022

    My mother in law funeral was on Aug 3rd and it was handled beautifully, dignified, elegantly from start to finished. The thoughtful funeral details including the memorable booklets was managed/organised professionally by Sarah Cunningham. We are truly happy with her expertise. Ruth the funeral director managed the funeral beautifully for us. Equally the celebrant Pastor Steve Macfarlane gave a good deliverance - passionate, empathy and elegant during the service. Without professional help from them, we would not be able to give a superb send off to Mother. Everyone attended the funeral commented how elegant is was. Thank you very much Sarah, Ruth and Pastor Steve Macfarlane. We are truly grateful.

  • 5 Matthew Roberts 20th Jun 2022

    I went straight from Rowans to see Sarah at Co-op Funeralcare in Drayton. I had just said goodbye to my Mum and I was running on adrenaline. Sarah looked after me and my family in a way that was exactly what we needed. Sarah took the time to find out about Mum and what was important to her and us. I can't recommend them enough. Thank you so much for helping us through the worst time. Matthew

  • 5 Hannah Langley 30th May 2022

    Sarah was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. Guiding us on exactly what we needed to do but keeping it very cheery and also making sure it was very personal to Dad. The funeral was so lovely and a real tribute to Dad’s character and his life and that’s thanks to the personal service we received at Drayton Funeralcare. Thanks so much Sarah.

They made the whole experience so much easier and so friendly could sit and chat and no rushing you out the door .  Would recommend to others if they needed this service . 

  • 5 Paul Barnaby Rosevear 10th Jan 2022

    The collection of mum's body after her passing was handled efficiently and respectfully even though it was required at very short notice.
    Sarah Cunningham then explained clearly what would happen and what our options were and then helped us use those options shape the event to what we knew mum wanted.
    Lorna and the team on the day were clear and in control, calmly dealing with some changing elements.
    It was important to the family to be able to do mum proud and with the Coop's help we did so. THANKYOU
