Ann Clark 11th Sep 2021

I don't know how to praise Thornalley enough, they took care of our family from the moment they met us. Nothing was too much trouble. They are highly professional and explained and helped us throughout the funeral process and beyond. A family firm and they felt like 'our family' as they directed us and all those who attended through the actual funeral, they were nothing short of magnificent.

    Outstanding care for my 25 year old Daugther that sadly passed away, they showed compassion and empathy and put up with me everyday wanting to visit. They answered questions that I had and was very supportive when I was facing such a difficult time. They looked after Rebecca and kept her beautiful as she was before the demons took hold. What a lovely family run business. I will be forever grateful for their kindness and support through such a difficult time.

    Everything was arranged perfectly by TFS. At the initial meeting, Ray Thornally went through all we needed to know.He helped with suggestions and presented options to us, and we came away feeling very confident that the service was going to be all that we wanted.
    And it was!



















    The TFS booklet is very helpful and the service sheets were beautifully presented.
    Thank you for the thoroughly caring and professional way everything was done for us.

    Ray and his team have recently dealt with both of our parents funerals and have given the utmost care and empathy throughout the whole process making it so much easier for us to deal with the grieving process , and providing a first class funeral that was exactly as we wanted . And giving us the chance to say goodbye with the dignity and respect they both deserved .

  • 5 Janet Newell 19th Aug 2021

    TFS are, l believe,  the most respected funeral directors in this area and thoroughly deserve their
    great reputation.
    Father Ray and Son Andrew show enormous respect to the loved ones of the deceased - I know this first hand having been a recipient of their dignity,kindness and efficiency, together with that of their amazing  staff, following the death of my beloved husband three weeks ago. 
    I cannot  thank them enough - they have all been truly wonderful.

    I and gerry have been looked after with great kindness and respect we couldn't have had better thankyou

  • 5 Helen Sutherland 9th Aug 2021

    I don't know where to start, from the first phone call on the Saturday Morning after my mum's passing, the respect,support and compassion I received from Ray and his staff was above and beyond.
    At such a difficult time when your head is not fully in the game, it is so reassuring to have that guidance, quietly and unobtrusively by your side every step of the way, nothing is too much trouble, I just can't thank them enough, they look after my mum with such dignity, just as they did with my Dad.
    Thankyou

Amazing people, amazing business. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thank you and well done to you all from the Arnold Family. x
