  • 5 Michael Boddis 16th Mar 2023

    very good service from all involved THANK YOU.

  • 5 Joanne Farley 13th Mar 2023

    I don't even know where to begin. The service and compassion received from both Trevor and Jenny was second to none. From the outset nothing was too much trouble for them. The care and compassion shown to myself, my brother and my children was wonderful. We entrusted our late mum into the care of Kendricks and it was simply the best decision that we made. Our mum was treated with respect and dignity which is all we could have wished for. Kevin, our Director for the day of Mum's funeral was beyond any words. His true compassion and empathy shown to us as a family was just beautiful. Nothing at all was too much trouble. The little things that made all of the difference are something that we will remember for many years to come. Thank you so much to everyone who has supported us through these difficult times. We will be eternally grateful xxx
