Whatever I say about Susan and her team will not express how we feel because you can’t describe a big hug, you need to feel it. They were kind, They remembered the small things and did it all with grace. Professional, hugely experienced and real. Simpatico. 

Anne Pawsey 4th Sep 2019

My sister & I were totally satisfied with the service we received from Susan Whymark Funeral Services. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble, arranging everything in 2 weeks. From sorting special music to Rose Petals it was very comforting. Thank you very much.

J Brown 3rd Sep 2019

The many complexities of Janet's funeral were handled with great sensitivity and concern for me as the closest relative.

    We cannot fault the service we received from Susan Whymark Funeral Services in any way. From the first call to the actual day of the funeral (and after), we have been dealt with in a professional, kind and courteous way. We had a slightly unusual funeral but that was met with a chorus of "of course we can" and the day itself was beautiful, calm, well organised and serene. We have no hesitation in recommending them to others. Thank you all very much

    The whole funeral experience organised and personally supervised by Susan Whymark was brilliant. Her staff suggested a celebrant who hit exactly the right note throughout. Those who attended the service said that in many ways it was a happy and uplifting experience, which was due on no small part to the funeral director herself.
