  • 5 Julie Lamb 1st Aug 2022

    The staff at Gateshead could not do enough to help and support, even in areas which really they weren’t responsible for.  As I was dealing with a friends funeral and didn’t know what I was doing they were a real comfort.

  • 5 Jillian O'Neill 3rd Jul 2022

    As a family, we had experience of the sterling care and support given by Co-Op Funeralcare, Gateshead, given that they had dealt impeccably with the funerals of my Grandparents. And with those two funerals/cremations, their diplomatic staff had to deal with many family squabbles that inevitably impede grief.
    With the funeral of my Dad Jimmy, we had no hesitation in calling upon their services again, even though he passed away in a neighbouring county. David Simm guided us professionally through the choices, assisted by Leigh and the team.
    There were some trying times based on the delays with the Coroner's office, but knowing it was important for me to see my Dad in the chapel before the funeral, he went the extra mile to ensure this happened.
    The funeral went without a hitch, from the photograph slideshow in the background, to the music choices, and most impressively with David's suggestion of Dale Cox as our celebrant. She delivered a perfect eulogy of Dad's life, personality, experiences and loves, capturing him like she had known him for years personally.
    I cannot talk more highly of their aptitude in this field, each member of the team knowing when to laugh with us, console us or just simply support us through. I wouldn't consider any other Funeral company for my family in the future.
