We were blown away with the  compassion and person- centred attention to smallest detail CJ Reilly Funeral service provided us with. Because of that, farewell for my husband was a beautiful experience which reflected his soul and everything he was about.  I’m immensely grateful to CJ Reilly. Thank you.

  • 5 Julia Silver 20th Aug 2023

    Just a note to acknowledge the fantastic job that was achieved by C.J Reilly Funeral Services in celebration of my late Father's life on the 15/08/23.

    The feedback that we received from everyone present was truly amazing and the Order of Service constructed was appreciated as a fitting tribute to my Father by both family and friends alike.

    Jill's advice and support throughout the planning process was extremely professional and there was a genuine empathy with us as a bereaved family.

    Chris's management and control of proceedings on the day as Funeral Director was exemplary from start to finish.

    In summary the service we received from this family run business was absolutely faultless and the attention to detail was profound.

  • 5 Mark Kenny 13th Aug 2023

    Without doubt the best around, Under the saddest of times me and my family won't go to anyone else other than cjreilly, Chris, Jill, Hayley and the team make everything seem personal rather than it just being a business... They are there to answer any question you have and to give you as much support during the whole process. Most importantly You know your loved one is in the best of care whilst the organisation of their day is being thoroughly thought through, All with the help and guidance from a brilliant team. The day of my stepdads service could not have gone any better all under the brilliant proffesional and unquestionable lead of Chris and his team. Utter brilliance

  • 5 Michael Wright 8th Aug 2023

    Excellent service as always, made us all feel at ease during the difficult process and our departed loved one was beautifully taken care of and looked like they were peacefully asleep which gave us great comfort. This is my 2nd time having to use them but I always recommend them to people I know and if you haven’t used them I’d highly recommend them. 10/10 for service. 

  • 5 Lucy Tillya 28th Jul 2023

    Calm and professional handlers. Thank you for everything 

  • 5 Roger Hendicott 27th Jul 2023

    I cannot find words to describe my experience from the time that the door was first opened to me by Hayley to later meeting Chris at the service, but I will try. One word springs to mind- AMAZING.

    I could not have asked for a more professional quality service filled with friendliness, compassion, empathy, understanding and hearts that understood where you were at and ears that truly listened and understood your needs.

    A huge thank you to Hayley and Chris and all the staff - you were superb. God bless you all.
