Tim Matthews Independent Family Funeral Director

5 Belinda Hutchins 29th Oct 2020

No one wants to arrange a funeral, it just happens to be one of those things that we have to do. When we choose a funeral director, it’s often a quick decision made in the emotion of the moment and we just pray it turns out ok. 
Well, look no further than Tim. He was amazing, he organised everything just as we wanted it and he simplified the whole process. 
We can’t thank him enough for his kindness, his patience, and his ability to just know what to say and what to do, to support us. 
We wouldn’t let anyone else do a funeral for us in the future, it just wouldn’t be the same experience. We are thankful that the choice we made turned out to be one of the best decisions ever! 
Tim, you’re a marvel - thanks for looking after Mum for us, and for taking us under your wing and looking after the whole family. 
Belinda and Julie x

Tim and his staff were brilliant. Kind , reassuring, professional and helpful at a very difficult time. This was the second time we have used their services and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

5 Louise Clarke 23rd Jul 2020

As a family we would highly recommend Tim Matthews. From start to finish we knew that we were in good hands. Every detail of the service was exactly as planned and all of our requirements were met.

Tim has gone above and beyond for our family at this horrendous time. He has been available over the phone all the time and has explained everything at every stage. Tim has looked after my dad with the respect everyone deserves and this has been a great comfort to our family. He has gone the extra mile, he is conducting dad's final journey as he does if there was a 100 people, even though unfortunately with the virus none of us can attend. Its the personal touch of picking some flowers from his own garden for dad, which is just so kind and thoughtful, and really means so much to our family. I would highly recommend Tim and his team, I am so glad we found them. They have made this time as bearable as it can be, knowing they are looking after my dad to the highest standards.

Tim was a great support all the way through what is a very difficult time. He was very patient (even when I had a wobble over the order of service). He showed great respect to my partner and the funeral was everything I wanted it to be which was a great comfort.

5 Kierston Paskell 20th Jan 2019

I am so delighted that my parents made their funeral plans with Tim Matthews. He guided them every step of the way; was always there for support and advice; he took time with them and the rest of the family. When the time came to say goodbye to my dad, Tim was like another member of the family. His genuine caring was apparent throughout. Noting was too much trouble. Professional service with a personal touch. He took the time to ensure that the funeral he helped us plan was a fitting tribute to my dad.

Tim and his family made sure our family were well looked after whilst making arrangements for my fathers funeral. A caring and considerate family run funeral business. Would highly recommend.

5 Beverley Keith 17th Jun 2018

Tim Matthews was excellent. He made a really difficult time easier to bear and was extremely accommodating and helpful. Having absolutely no idea where to start he guided us smoothly through the entire process and we felt comfortable and at ease from the moment we stepped inside.
Thankyou Tim x

5 Rita McManus 28th Feb 2018

Tim was brilliant from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble, always contactable at any time, when you have a million things running through your head. His naturally quiet, calm and sympathetic nature shone through.
I can't recommend him high enough.

5 Scott Neale 21st Jan 2018

I found Tim a real comfort and professional. He made what was an unexpected and tragic loss to a as nice a day as he he could. He was also praised by friends and family, some coming hundreds of miles for his thoughtfullnes and compassion on the day.

5 Charles Bishop 6th Jan 2018

5 kellie regan 30th Oct 2017

So very personal, helpful, understanding and informative.  The whole of such a difficult time was made as easy as it could possibly have been made from start to finish.  Providing so much more than just a job in every way. An excellent service. Thank you.

5 David Armstrong 23rd Oct 2017

Tim provided a First Class service to our family recently, he was available to answer any questions we had and guided us through a sad time. Would highly recommend him...very many thanks.

5 Phil Clark 6th Oct 2017

Tim couldn't have been more accommodating. He listened brilliantly to what my Fathers wishes and preferences would've been, suggested some ways of making it better, organising a celebrant to ease the process of the service, and did it all with an appropriate sense of humour which we really valued throughout the process. Wholeheartedly recommended.

5 Naomi Colburn 1st Oct 2017

Tim was fantastic in every way from start to finish. He provided a personal &  extremely high level of service, nothing was too much trouble & it was clear that he takes a great deal of pride in his work & getting everything right was as important to him as it was to us.
He also recommended the minister, Peter White, who conducted the service perfectly & again with attention to detail. Could not have asked for more, a potentially difficult day was made easy.
Would absolutely recommend.

5 William Worthy 25th Sep 2017

Tim Matthews gave an excellent service. Friendly, caring and professional, nothing was too much trouble. We would highly recommend him.

5 David Hughes 17th Jul 2017

Mr Matthews was helpful and sympathetic during the preliminary stages of arranging the Funeral. His advice was of considerable assistance. Thereafter he provided an extremely efficient service and delivered in full on all of his obligations thereby ensuring the Funeral Service was a fitting tribute to the deceased.
