We were looked after with respect and love from start to finish and would highly recommend this company. Lisa is a lovely lady and helped us through a very difficult and traumatic time.

I cannot fault the service we have received and we appreciated their kindness and compassion throughout the whole process.  I would recommend their services to others

Lisa in the Borough Green office was excellent. She helped us organise the funeral in less than 2 weeks, and the day was perfect. The Celebrant, Ian, also conducted a wonderful service. Mum would have been so happy with it.

  • 5 Christine Arthur 9th Sep 2024

    Our family could not have wished for a more sensitive and professional service. We felt completely supported every step of the way as we prepared for my sister’s funeral and her many friends all shared our feeling that she had a wonderful send off. I would recommend this service without hesitation.

  • 5 Jonathan Morris 11th Aug 2024

    Couldn’t have asked for more help and attention and quality throughout the days helping to arrange everything, and on the day of the funeral.

  • 5 Sara Boobbyer 23rd Jul 2024

    From start to finish the whole team could not have been more considerate and efficient thank you 

  • 5 Pat Holmes 2nd Jul 2024

    Everything went so smoothly. We had no worries at all. The beautiful floral tribute from the coffin was even delivered to our church after the cremation.
    A big ‘thank you’ to Kieth Viner who sang the prayer, ‘God be in my head’ so beautifully at the end of the service.
    Thank you to all of the team and especially to Sharon for keeping us informed throughout.

  • 5 Stephen Wightman 26th Jun 2024

    Right from the start, Lisa and Sharon made everything clear and easy for us to plan the final details. Nothing was too much trouble and the support and care was excellent. The day went without a hitch and Dan and his team were professional and courteous. We cannot thank you all enough. A sad day was made very special. Thank you

  • 5 Lisa Defontaine 16th Jun 2024

    The whole team, but in particular Lisa and Sharon, made this difficult experience so much more bearable. They showed sensitivity, kindness, compassion and on many occasions went way over and above standard service to help and support our family through this. Everything was organised perfectly, exactly as we asked for and they helped us make great choices too and kept us informed every step. I really can't praise them enough, and it's important to add their prices were far lower than others I initially spoke to. I want to sincerely thank them for doing such an incredible job.

  • 5 Jeanette Slater 9th Jun 2024

    Such lovely staff, so kind and understanding.
    Nothing was too much trouble. Even managed to prudence a limousine which I suddenly decided we needed just three hours before the funeral,!
    So grateful for making a very difficult day bearable..
    Thank you.

    This is the 2nd time I've used a funeral director. Although the first time was satisfactory I can honestly say I would recommend Stephen Gay every time from now on. Not only were they far more cost effective the service was exemplary. We were kept informed of everything at all stages and any problems were dealt with promptly and effectively.

  • 5 Kelly Head 12th Mar 2024

    Dan, Lisa, David and all at Stephen Gay could not have been more helpful and professional helping us  through this difficult time, would highly recommend them.
    Thank you all again.

  • 5 Stephen Rose 22nd Jan 2024

    Thank you to all the team at Stephen P Gay especially to Lisa at Borough Green and Mary our celebrant. Everything for our dear Eileen was handled so sensitively and professionally. We couldn’t have been in safer hands.

    Absolutely first class in every respect.

  • 5 Stephen Coombes 2nd Sep 2023

    I can not rate Stephen P Gay highly enough. We used their Borough Green branch with Lisa taking care of us.
    Lisa was professional in such a caring way and helped us along each step with advice and expertise…. she makes a great cup of tea too!!
    Lisa recommended celebrant Mary Stupple who was also perfect for the service that we wanted.
    A big thank you to everyone who made a difficult time so much easier.
