Deborah Goreham 24th Apr 2023

Thankyou is not enough for the brilliant service we received from Shayne Stork Funeral Services. Very professional, very friendly and very helpful, I would definitely recommend to everyone who needs a very caring Funeral Service. Shayne and Family could not do enough for us when we needed help after the sudden death in the family. They sorted everything for me in one package, which was so much less stressful. Great experience from Shayne and Family. Thankyou from the all the family and friends.

  • 5 Stephen Harston 7th Feb 2023

    Shayne was extremely helpful and courteous. We had to organise the funeral very quickly because of our impending return to the USA. Shayne used all of his contacts to get things done in time. Shane suggested a celebrant, Tanya, who was excellent and he also recommended a solicitor, Kim Simper who has done a great job so far.
    Thanks Shayne and team.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Stephen, glad I was able to help and also able to help you with my contacts and glad you got home safely.

    Right from the first phone call to Shayne Stork notifying them of our Mother's death considering the phonecall was made at 11pm Christmas Night, Shayne was very prompt in answering the phone, He was very curtious, sympathetic and professional.
    Funeral arrangements and the service was very personal and professional and Shayne remained informative right up to the end of the funeral. Would highly recommend well done the Stork family .

  • 5 Linda North 2nd Jan 2023

    Shayne Was the ultimate professional from beginning to end. He was gentle, considerate and very patient throughout the process of arranging Mum’s cremation. He offered useful advice and added a sprinkle of well placed humour when he gauged that the company was receptive. I feel very fortunate to have chosen his services and would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone. The whole process was stress free and reliable

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Linda, thank you so very much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review of our services. I’m so glad that we were able to help look after all the arrangements for you. All the best to you and the family, Shayne
