From start to finish Richard Ward Funeral Services were absolutely amazing, they were recommended to us initially and i will be recommending them to others.
Dave Garrard 27th Feb 2020
We were told that Richard Ward Funeral Directors were "the best in the business." We now know this compliment was fully justified. We dealt primarily with Helen and, to a lesser extent, Richard - but they are, of course, part of a team. They dealt with out funeral in a sensitive, caring, compassionate, efficient and highly professional manner. It was a very difficult time for us, but we were guided through the process in a very supportive way. I would also like to compliment the celebrate chosen to manage the service, Keith Charlton. He struck the right mood at the service and delivered a very perceptive and moving eulogy. I really could not recommend this team more highly. They are, quiet simply, the best.

A very good service. We felt very welcome and well looked after. All our requests were catered for. Communication was easy and responsive. The flowers were particularly good. The order of service was well produced. Everything was conducted in a sensitive and professional manner.
