We moved to Norfolk just 2 yrs ago to begin to start our retirement. My husband was a fit, healthy 58 years old yet diagnosed with cancer early this year and it was so aggressive he died in September. Everything was such a shock and unexpected so we had no knowledge of funeral directors at all. My daughter found Thornallys on internet search and we read the reviews which were comforting. From the moment Peter arrived immaculately presented with an assuring, kind, authoritative attitude, I just knew it was the right choice. In the darkest times you need to know that your loved one is being looked after and respected. Nothing but praise for both Peter and Nichola who were so kind, comforting and welcoming of whole family with many visits without ever overstepping the mark, takes some doing in my opinion. They just know how to approach and comfort people. Wonderful,special,good people. Thank you Peter, Nichola and Thornallys for looking after my husband and making the send off as good as it could possibly be.
