  • 5 Ann Collins 9th Nov 2023

    The Day Went Very Well. Everything as planned and punctual. A couple of my Family members have mobility issues and took a long time to get into and out of vehicles at both the church and the graveside. Thornalley's Funeral Services allowed us to take our time, helped my family members out of the vehicle, helped with the loading and offloading of the wheelchair, and even moved our vehicles closer to the church entrance for ease. Very professional and supportive through the whole process.

  • 5 Lianne Lang 6th Nov 2023

    These amazing people helped us through a very tough time. Even the little touches like the men wearing colourful ties and sorting added extras out on the day. We even had a giggle as I was helped out of the sinking mud by Andrew when I stepped out of the limousine. All such beautiful people. Thank you Andrew and team
    Kind regards,
    Lianne Lang and family

  • 5 Graham Bennett 5th Nov 2023

    After the passing of a loved one, Thornalley Funeral Services have looked after us extremely well indeed, from my first contact with them through to the very end they have been First Class. I have seen Five Stars on most of their reviews.. I can see why.
    I highly recommend them.

  • 5 Diane Dale 30th Oct 2023

    As a family we could not have asked for a better quality of service that we received from Thornalleys. They all showed us thoughtfulness, compassion and the greatest respect during such a painful time in our lives.  Thornalleys made an extremely painful day bearable.

  • 5 Tracey Goodley 30th Oct 2023

    Ray and his team went above all my expectations for my mum’s funeral last week it went beautifully and without incident as did the funeral Andrew oversaw six months ago for my dad 

    The care and compassion that was shown to us all from the staff in the office to the pall bearers and grooms people was outstanding and exceptional. This funeral home offers the highest quality without exception for the love and care of not only out loved ones but ourselves too 

    Thank you does not seem enough for these wonderful, thoughtful and kindhearted people 

    You done both my parents proud and would not hesitate for a second to recommend you to everyone
