Thomas Furber were hugely helpful during what of course, was a very difficult and emotional time. They were kind, respectful, patient (particularly when I was quite regularly chang ... ing my mind about what I wanted!) Their recommended services, florist, Order of Service, media firm for live stream, music and photo displays, were second to none. They showed full respect for my husband at all times and were there if I required any help or advice. I would highly recommend Keith Barron and his team - THANK YOUmore

Thomas Furber & Co are amongst the oldest independent funeral directors in Birmingham. Since they were founded in 1868, they have offered appropriate, memorable and meaningful funeral services to families in the city.
Members of SAIF (National Society of Allied & Independent Funeral Directors) and the BFDG (Birmingham Funeral Directors Guild), Thos. Furber & Co is run by Keith, Dave and Sue, who have over 100 years of combined experience. This wealth of experience and knowledge means that any type of funeral is available, from religious and non-religious, eco-friendly, traditional and more.
Thos. & Furber offer a wide range of choice when arranging a funeral, allowing you to make sure that your loved-one is remembered and commemorated properly. There is a large variety of coffin and caskets, as well as options for funeral transport that range from traditional limousines and hearses to horse-drawn carriages, a motorcycle hearse, vintage lorries and cars, and more.
The Birmingham funeral home has three chapels of rest on-site, ensuring that you will have a private space to spend some quiet time before the funeral ceremony to say goodbye to your loved one.

Kinder professionals you could not wish to meet. Keith and the team looked after us every step of the way with sensitivity and compassion throughout.
Most of all the dignity with with we were all treated was second to none.

Difficult to write a review under such sad circumstances, however Sue and Dave were on hand at all times, and made the process of organising the funeral go as smoothly as it could.

Customer service at Thos. Furber & Co Ltd is impeccable. I could not have asked for a more professional, efficient, accessible and sympathetic team. I was supported through every step of the process, informed of all progress, and all services were coordinated seamlessly. The funeral ceremony itself ran extremely smoothly, and provided the beautiful, happy and dignified farewell my loved one deserved. I highly recommend this lovely team.
