  • 5 Kate Flaxman 16th Jan 2023

    We can't fault the care and professionalism Ray and his staff gave us. The dignity and respect on the day of dad's funeral was appreciated. Andrew was extremely attentive and supportive when collecting us etc
    The phone calls I received regularly from Ray keeping us updated with the arrangements and also simply to let us know he was thinking of us, meant such a lot.
    Thornally together with Janet Qualters, Celebrant made a heartbreaking difficult day, bearable for us all to cope.
    Thank you so very much for your kindness.

  • 5 Gwendoline Edwards 14th Jan 2023

    At an emotional and stressful time, Ray and his team proved to be an excellent support. They were professional, friendly and their attention to small details was second to none. Ray had plenty of time and frequently checked to see that our family were okay. We did not feel rushed both in decision making or indeed on the day of the funeral. We would not hesitate to recommend Thornalley funeral Services to others.

  • 5 David Finney 9th Jan 2023

    From the initial first meeting, we felt confident Thornally would provide what we wanted. Everyone involved was competent, understanding, and very sincere. They listened and phoned regularly to ensure everything was OK and that we were happy with the decisions we had made. On the day of the funeral they were professional, compassionate and we could not recommend them more in providing an outstanding service on such a sad occasion.
