Hayley and her team did an excellent job under difficult circumstances. We had no hesitation in asking her to do Peter's funeral as she also did Vera's funeral 3 years previously.

Emma Ritchie 15th Apr 2020

Hayley and her colleagues were kind, caring, compassionate and wonderfully patient. The funeral was beautiful and, knowing that it was the most lovely possible way to say goodbye to my mother, has helped us enormously with the grieving process.  Hayley and her team are a credit to their profession and I would recommend them to anyone to ease them through the process with kindness and dignity. Thanks so much Hayley, we will not forget you. Love from us all.

Emma Jackson 15th Apr 2020

Haley Owen was the consummate professional throughout the whole process. Her calm and caring attitude helped make a very dark time more bearable, and her quiet yet steady presence on the day of the funeral guided us through the events with a steadiness and calm. Her constant readiness to answer questions and offer support was reassuring and welcomed. She made sure we were involved throughout the whole planning of the funeral and we were delighted with the results. We would have no hesitation to recommend her services to anyone going through the bereavement of a loved one. Haley showed respect to our Mum and us as her daughters-we knew Mum was getting the very best care in the most dignified yet cheerful way-Mum had asked for Haley to help her on her last journey, and we were delighted we could honour this.

  • 5 John Schofield 7th Apr 2020

    Hayley and her team provided a very personal yet professional service to the family from the moment they were contacted to arrange collection of my dear fathers body until the service at the crematorium and thereafter. All went very smoothly, we were given many options. We were never rushed and Hayley spent a lot of time with us planning the service and also much further time making sure all the music hymns etc were exactly right. This was our second family funeral in 3mths. Hayley organised the first one for my Mother which was equally good and we had no qualms using her services for Dad too. I cannot recommendation them highly enough. A small family run business that you should feel very confident in engaging. (Retired GP)
