Walton & Taylor are accommodating, kind, respectful and efficient. They did everything I asked for and the day went smoothly. This company is the only one I have encountered in sorting out the life of my father that has made a difficult situation easier. If only they could do all of the tedious things that have to be done to close a persons life. As it is, the funeral, which is their job, went perfectly and I couldn’t have asked for better. Thank you so much to all the staff for your kindness and efficiency.  T Rosemeyer

Ann Fitton 23rd May 2022

We were very happy with with Walton and Taylor for how they conducted our dad’s funeral from the beginning to the end. Sue and James were so easy to deal with and very approachable and they carried out our wishes with lots of thought. On the day of the funeral everything was perfect and thank you all once again for all your help at a very difficult time .

    All of the staff at Walton and Taylor have been wonderful. I can't put into words how grateful we were for their assistance when my father passed away. They handled everything that needed handling with professionalism and sensitivity. The funeral went very smoothly and it was nice knowing that everything was under control.

    Walton and Taylor were absolutely fantastic, efficient, respectful and understanding. They worked to a tight deadline at our request and despite the time constraints the service and whole experience was faultless.

    They catered to our every need and request and checked that we were happy with the arrangements throughout.

    They made one of the worst day of our lives a little easier.

    Thank you Walton and Taylor for the outstanding and compassionate service.
