Isobel was amazing at the most horrendous time, nothing was too much trouble and she went above and beyond for our family. Our Dad meant the world to us and Isobel did everything she could to make everything that needed doing easier and uncomplicated. We will always be grateful.

  • 5 Clive Boult 21st Oct 2022

    What can I say, Izzy and her team have been absolutely amazing. Izzy took the stress out of the whole process. She made the day of the funeral something truly special, mum would have loved it, all of the guests said how brilliant everything was. Izzy suggested things we wouldn't have thought about that added that really personal touch.
    A truly personal service, they go way beyond all expectations.
    Sincere thanks to you all.

    I cannot praise Isobel and her family highly enough! Izzy went above and beyond, replying to my emails day and night, regular calls and even checking we were OK. Don't go anywhere else if you have to arrange a funeral. I tried all the top names and Izzy was the most reasonable and as an independent local business she needs oit support. I'm so glad I chose her. Plus she's a really kind and caring person. Thank you Izzy and your husband and mum for everything. We really appreciated your help and expertise in making our dad's celebration of life everything he would have wanted, and more! Bless you xx

    Isobel Whittaker replied
    Thank you so much for leaving this wonderful review, and for choosing me to look after your Dad. Wishing you and your family all the best xx

We wanted to celebrate his life and Isobel allowed us to do it in style. I have no reservations to recommend Isobel Whittaker Funeral Services to anyone!!

  • 5 Catherine Howliston 1st May 2022

    I can't thank Izzy enough for helping to make a very traumatic time easier. Everything was handled very professionally and at the same time in a very caring and thoughtful manner. She organised everything for me, even down to taking care of the wake afterwards so I didn't have to worry about it. I could not have had anyone better to send my husband on his final journey, I can highly recommend Whittaker Funeral services.
