Thank you to Chris, Poppy and everyone at East Coast Funerals and to Nick our Celebrant. I wanted an Amazing celebration of life for my Amazing wife Tina and between us that is wha ... t we achieved. A pleasure to work with lovely caring people. I visited Tina constantly while at rest and you always had Tina looking beautiful and peaceful in her bright red sparkly accessory and that gave me such an inner peace. Thank you. Keith  more

Chris and the team at East Coast Funerals helped us with all of the funeral arrangements for my father who recently passed away. We had an idea of what we wanted and discussed thi ... s with Chris who carefully put all of the arrangements together and nothing was too much trouble, even when we changed our minds on a couple of details. My father was treated respectfully throughout and we were treated with compassion, kindness and patience. The coffin looked smart and traditional and was a sensible price and the order of service, particularly the layout and quality of paper, was beautiful. Chris liaised closely with the Vicar to ensure that everything ran like clockwork on the day and dad received the send off that he deserved. Also, the cost of the funeral compared very favourably with other funeral directors. I would rate East Coast as excellent and cannot thank them enough.  more
