Staff were very welcoming and made myself and mum feel as comfortable as we can be while going through this sad time. Everyone was so supportive. Willing to help as much as possible and even come up with lovely new ideas. My mum came into the funeral parlour nearly every day for just over 3 weeks to see my dad. My mum said lovely cups of tea. We even got the chance to have my dads fingerprints to keep and copies of his hand prints which we will treasure for many years to come. Everyone looked after my dad and us so well wr couldn’t ask for more we have been telling friends and family how amazing you’ve all been many thanks.

From the very first phone call, to them collecting and caring for Mother, then arranging the funeral, and the funeral itself, the family have nothing but praise for all the staff at Susan Wymark’s. They are wonderful, so kind and compassionate. Nothing was too much trouble for Kelly, our arranger, who spent as much time as we needed with us, to make sure that we got everything just as mother wished for. And on the day, attended by Susan and her crew, and assisted by Jan, the celebrant they recommended, everything went so smoothly and was the perfect goodbye to Mother.
I hope, when my time comes, I will be as well looked after.
Thank you from all of us

In a time of great stress & uncertainty, I approached Susan Whymark to look after my dear wife's funeral. I did so based on the recommendation of a friend. Having experienced their human-centred, empathic, supportive and professional service at first hand; I would unreservedly recommend Susan Whymark to anyone who asked me. As far as I am concerned, they are the Gold Standard in funeral services.
5Mr P Eldridge19th Oct 2021

They are such lovely people made a hard time easier
5Miss E Yearley21st Sep 2021
From start to finish the level of attention given to us was outstanding, we never felt rushed when we popped in without an appointment. All our wishes and requests were met to a very high standard. The plans we made with Sue Whymarks help, were very hard as it was a funeral for our 14 month daughter. We as a family were very greatful to have a family run funeral directors on our door step, but I would have been very happy to travel to have them in the future.

Susan Whymark's team did a superb job managing the funeral for my late mother. This is the second time we have called on their services over the past six years, and on both occasions they very patiently listened to our wishes and showed understanding and compassion throughout. I can't recommend them highly enough.
5Ms P Miller9th Jul 2021
Your kindness and compassion shown to me and my family on the passing of my husband at this difficult time has been second to none
5Mr B Carlile8th Jul 2021
Kelly and the whole team at Susan Whymark (Harleston) were nothing short of outstanding on the recent passing of my mother. They were kind, compassionate, and at no time did we feel rushed. Nothing was too much trouble, and the day itself was a beautiful tribute to mum, and exactly what we had hoped for. Thank you all for everything you did.
5Ms J Helsby18th Jun 2021
We received excellent support from Kelly of Susan Whymark funeral services when planning Mum’s funeral. She gave us all the time we needed, explaining everything fully. We felt listened to and she made suggestions that helped us have a unique and personal farewell.
All the staff we met were polite, smart and efficient. My sister and I strongly recommend using their services.
