A J Wakely & Sons Ltd, Wincanton

5 Ian Brine 6th Apr 2025

My wife and I visited the Wincanton branch of A. J Wakely & Sons Ltd after the passing of my father. On arrival, we were greeted by Claire, who immediately put us at ease. Richard then guided us through every step, with kindness and sensitivity, ensuring that every detail was handled with care. Their attention to detail, patience and understanding were truly remarkable. On the day of the Funeral, Ross and his team were excellent and a big thank you must go to our Celebrant Antonia, who conducted the service with the utmost dignity and respect, providing a beautiful and fitting farewell to my dad. I am deeply grateful, as is my family for their outstanding service. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of compassionate and professional care. Thank you for making a tough time more manageable.

A.J.Wakeley and sons Ltd were lovely. So helpful guiding us through the process and planning for our requirements. Always sympathetic whilst being supportive and understanding. They ensured everything ran smoothly on the day. The celebrant they recommended, Kimberley Arnold, was very good both on the day and guiding us through the planning process, even composing a closing poem for my brother.

Richard was absolutely brilliant throughout the whole process. We don't live locally, and the funeral required our Uncle to be moved from his Care Home in Somerset to his resting place in Birmingham. Richard and the team dealt with the situation brilliantly, offering calm and helpful support throughout. They made a difficult situation as simple as possible. I would wholeheartedly recommend them.
