Very helpful and respectful, guided me through all that needed doing. Always prompt to answer queries and explain our options and helped give our mum the funeral she’d have wanted. Access to Obitus meant my far-flung family could all listen and choose music from our own homes which really helped get a consensus. Memory giving online was also very easy and convenient.  Thank you to Andrew Traci etc for all their help. 

Dorothy Harris 6th Jan 2024

thank you for a very smooth running time and for helping me through it all at a very difficult time

Joanne Rust 6th Jan 2024

We are fortunate that at a difficult time we have such a caring and professional funeral service to take care of our needs. This is the 3rd time in less than 2 years I've used Thornalley's and this time, as previously, their commitment to ensuring we were able to get through this difficult time with as little stress and worry as possible, is second to none.

    Andrew and his team provided an excellent service, I found it quite overwhelming to have so much to do and was supported throughout. I was also very impressed when visiting my partner with how he was presented, it was such a calm and peaceful process and I felt assured he was being treated with dignity and respect. Thank you to everyone involved

  • 5 Robert Fear 22nd Dec 2023

    Once again, The Thornalley Funeral Service proved to be 100% in every aspect of arranging our funeral. Truly masters of their trade.

  • 5 Margaret McCutcheon 21st Dec 2023

    It has been a great comfort to all those who were close to Neil to have such care and consideration given to our needs and requests, some of which were not run of the mill. Neil planned his own service and it was so important to me as his mother that all of his wishes were carried out.
    Thank you to all at Thornalley's

    Season's Greetings from Neil McCutcheon's family and friends

  • 5 Suzanne Pearce 19th Dec 2023

    Thornalley have recently supported us to arrange the funeral of our mum. From our initial contact with them to the conclusion of their service they have been wonderful. They have contacted us regularly to update us with the progress of the arrangements and to check on our well-being following our loss.
    They have been supremely professional, thorough and caring. Nothing ever felt rushed or too much trouble and it made a difficult time for us as a family so much easier.
    Thank you all for your kindness and compassion in making sure our mum was treated with the dignity and care she deserved.
