I can’t speak highly enough of Tim and his team. Everything was so beautifully organised. I’ve had so many phone calls from people who attended saying it was one of the most memorable services they had attended

Elizabeth Harris 8th Mar 2021

T J Parry and Family handled every aspect of my husbands funeral with kindness and sensitivity.  Tim was very professional and showed respect and dignity at every turn. From bringing him home to dropping the family home after the service was handled perfectly. The turn out of the cars and team on the day was brilliant - many who attended and saw the Web Cast said it was a beautiful service. Thank you Tim and your brilliant team.

  • 5 Brian Pountney 27th Feb 2021

    This was the first time that I had to arrange a funeral and it was important to me that everything was done correctly and as my wife Jean would have expected it to be. From the first meeting that I had with Tim Parry I was confident that I had chosen the right people to make the arrangements and I knew that I could rely on them to do what I asked of them.
    Tim and his team kept me informed of developments of the funeral plan from original meeting to the cremation.
    I would have no hesitation in recommending TJ Parry and family funeral directors to anyone needing to make funeral arrangements.

    T J Parry Funeral Directors replied
    Thank you for taking the time to leave a review Brian, and most of all thank you for entrusting us, its been an honour. Take care.

    The family of the Late Peter John Smith

    Words are not enough to express the care, compassion and professionalism of this funeral director, from the initial telephone conversation to the funeral and beyond. We spoke with Tim about a unique and personalised service we wanted for our recently deceased husband and dad, Peter John Smith. Nothing was too much trouble, he gave of his time freely and treated Peter with the dignity and respect he deserved. We would recommend T J Parry & Family without reservation.

  • 5 John and Pat xxx Garratt/Turner 16th Jan 2021

    I genuinely cannot thank Tim enough for the way he has looked after my lovely dad. He is kind, caring, respectful and no detail is too small or too difficult for him. His continued support for my family and I has helped us so much through this incredibly sad time and he made what was, for me, an initially very traumatic and daunting task very simple, personal and beautiful. Tim and his whole team were brilliant on the day of the funeral and it was so lovely and dignified. They have honoured dad in a way I could have only hoped for.

    T J Parry Funeral Directors replied
    Thank you so much for leaving such a lovely review. You really did Dad proud with the beautiful service you arranged. You all remain in our thoughts.
