Very respectful and honourable service. Glad we went with a family business 

Andrew Bonnington 8th Apr 2023

At the darkest of times Jamie Knight provided the kindest support. We are forever grateful for the compassion and genuine care shown to our family as we said goodbye to dad. Every detail, including the beautiful order of service, the flowers and the music were all catered for respectfully and with exceptional professionalism. This was the final act we could do for dad, and what a perfect goodbye it was. All credit to Jamie Knight, a true gentleman amongst us. Thank you.

    The service we received was excellent. From our initial phone contact to post service everything was done with care, consideration and compassion. 
    We were given a number of options for all areas of the service regardless if it was the design of the order of service to the flowers accompanying the coffin, everything was high quality. 
    They helped what could have been a difficult a stressful day be a truly positive experience.
    Thank you.

I would not hesitate to recommend J. F. Knight funeral directors.

  • 5 Paul Wood 2nd Feb 2023

    This Funeral Director is excellent. They are thoughtful caring, supportive, and go the extra mile to make sure that everything goes perfectly.
    Their care of our mum was second to none (and due to her illness, must have been very difficult).
    Their care of the family was exceptional. Their advice invaluable.
    They listened, carefully, which means they were able to add the little touches. Looking back, we can see just how important this is, and it means so much to us.
    They made sure that it was a perfect tribute to a very special lady.
    They were very patient with us. They did not try to 'upsell' they do not have inflated prices. The prices are very reasonable.
    Also, they gave us their payment terms once only and they never pestered us. Some do.
    We can say, without reservation, that J F Knight are an excellent Funeral Director. They are wonderful Abassadors for the Funeral Industry. The best. Others should take note.
    We recommend them to anyone. Please pass on our grateful thanks to each and every one of them.

  • 5 Linda McCay 1st Feb 2023

    A good friend highly recommended them as I'm not from the area. They were very friendly, helpful and professional at one of the hardest times. i am extremely grateful for their advice and support. The service and aftercare was beautiful considering the sadness of the occasion thanks to them. I highly recommend.

  • 5 Yvonne Ociepko 31st Jan 2023

    The funeral was conducted in the most professional manner,staff are most pleasant and accommodating.

  • 5 Julie Pickard 31st Jan 2023

    When our dad passed away, my family and I were really unsure how to proceed with planning a funeral so we made appointments at a few funeral directors to see what they recommended. From our first contact with JF Knights we were struck by how helpful and empathetic everyone was there, and Jamie explained the whole process to us without putting any pressure on us to decide there and then. The whole family left that first appointment in agreement that we wanted JF Knights to manage the funeral. From that moment on, Jamie made everything really easy for us and was really supportive in making the day exactly what dad would have wanted, even down to having his staff wear blue ties on the day as dad was a big Sheffield Wednesday supporter. It was a beautiful, personal service and ran smoothly with nothing for us to worry about other than saying goodbye to our beloved dad. We can't recommend Jamie and his team enough.

  • 5 Andrea Weatherstone 31st Jan 2023
