Wendy Marshall 17th Nov 2017

I was a bit upset when attended viewing as my mother’s hair had not been done and coffin looked small, but after speaking to Heidi everything was done to rectify this, a new coffin was ordered and decorated and was absolutely beautiful and exactly what the family wanted so cannot thank them enough, all the other arrangements also went smoothly.

    The service from Tamworth co op has been first class in all areas the staff who dealt with us have all been very helpful at this sad time for our family.

  • 5 Darren Woodhouse 3rd Nov 2017

    The whole process from the initial meeting to discuss the funeral was exceptional. Heidi at the office was extremely helpful in making sure we were able to give Mam her perfect send off. Kev, the driver on the day was equally a star, with a great level of professionalism but a warm natural delivery of customer service. Thank you Co-Op Tamworth, you really did an outstanding delivery.

  • 4 Margaret Dandy 10th Aug 2017

    Would have rated as excellence however the wrong song was played in the funeral service. We were disappointed because the rest of the service we received from the coop was second to none.
