    Everyone at Hayley Owens but in particular Beth have been amazing at this very difficult time. At a time of sadness and in shock with what had happened, Beth was very patient, nothing was too much trouble. They made you feel comfortable, they were there for support and whatever you decided was perfectly fine. I can't recommend everyone at Hayley Owens enough. You are in safe hands.

  • 5 Garry Vilmans 14th Nov 2023

    The service from Hayley and her team was excellent from beginning to end, they guided me through everything and kept me informed of everything that was happening with great attention to detail.
    I’d definitely recommend them to anyone and after using other funeral directors in York in the past I’d now not us anyone else but Hayley. Well done for making a difficult time so much easier and thank you.

  • 5 Lorraine Bovan 23rd Aug 2023

    I’ve used Haley before. She’s very professional and also very empathetic. Her service is faultless  

  • 5 Joanna Winstanley 19th Aug 2023

    From my first enquiry and contact with the staff the service from this firm was superb- I had them recommended by a nurse in my Father’s nursing home and what a stroke of good fortune I did- ( the nurse told me this company always spend the most time with families in her experience and never rush anyone)

    Hayley and team gave me exactly the support, time and kindness I needed - very personalised to my situation. In such a difficult time it was so appreciated. Hayley was always there to guide me but never felt intrusive - the premises is so friendly, a proper family firm. No big chain here - I felt like I’d know them all years and their professional and caring attributes were very balanced - my Father was so well cared for and so was I as his daughter. I can’t recommend them more. Thank you Hayley and Patience for all your kindness and skills at this difficult time - I can see why there is a massive basket of thank you cards in your office - THANK YOU
