    I cannot praise Thornalleys Funeral Services enough. Their concern and sympathy and attention to detail was beyond all measure. Mr Ray Thornalley was so caring and helped me through a difficult time, for which I am truly grateful. I have recommended their services to several of my friends.

  • 5 Doreen Moore 6th Feb 2021

    The care kindness and consideration shown by Ray and all the staff was outstanding. From the first call made to Ray on the Sunday afternoon to leaving the crematorium after the funeral nothing was too much trouble. I only had personal contact with Ray Loraine and Chris but know all the staff give the same level of care and respect. Your care and kindness made things easier to bear. Thank you. Take care and stay safe.

  • 5 Susan Chase 3rd Feb 2021

    Excellent service and very helpful.

  • 5 Maria Murray-Brown 1st Feb 2021

    Everything ran so smoothly. I was worried about the flowers on the coffin going back to the church to decorate it and which things would go into the crematorium with the coffin - when you are upset this is something you can forget and quite frankly you don't want the extra worry. To my surprise I saw the funeral director take the flowers himself into a side chapel just before the coffin left the church. It was calmly established what was going where. Thank you Thornnalley!
