I found the service at Thornnalley excellent, Andrew was most helpful with looking after my Dad, and everyone was very caring and kind. The service at Mintlyn was also just as my Dad would have wanted, many thanks to all of you.

In the current climate of covid the staff have been amazingly helpful, friendly, respectful, in the safest way possible for all . We first used them back in 2001 and found they still provide outstanding professional service. As a family we would have no hesitation to recommend there services .

  • 5 Daphne Smith 10th Nov 2020


    Right from the start, Thornalley staff were so comforting and kind as they talked through the arrangements with us. The place of rest
    in the funeral parlour where we said goodbye to our loved one was peaceful, soothing and calm. We thought that Ray Thornalley truly went the extra mile to give our husband / Dad a beautiful and dignified ceremony. Nothing was too much trouble. The funeral cortege looked stately as it proceeded down our road.
    Thank you.

    From the initial telephone call when our father died and through the whole process of planning and holding his funeral Ray Thornalley and his wonderful team have been so kind,empathetic and helpful. They ensured that a very difficult day (at the start of lock down 2) was as good as it could possibly be. Thank you

  • 5 Ian Barker 30th Oct 2020

    Every detail was attended to with the utmost dignity and respect. All the staff made me feel at ease, during what must be the worst time in anyone's life.
    Jean looked absolutely beautiful whilst in The Chapel of Rest.
    The attended cremation at Breckland Crematorium was a private ending, which is exactly what we wanted.
    The spray of orchids by Bridgets Flowers completed Jean's 'Goodbye' to all who loved her. 💖💔💘💕
