Thankyou Christine for your helpful approach, guiding us through the various steps and for her recommendations. The funeral proceeded very smoothly.

Joanne Fletcher 25th Apr 2022

The team that came out to us at time of death were very respectful and kind. Tony and Chris were amazing, couldn’t do enough for us. Would have liked more direction once we were out of the crem to create the ‘line’ because half of the mourners had never been to an English funeral.  We would definitely recommend Tony and the team. Thank you

    The team at Farmer and Son were excellent from the day my father passed away to the funeral day itself. Nothing was too much trouble. On booking the funeral with Chris initially we were advised and helped with all aspects. Kevin looked after our dad impeccably and on the day of the funeral Tony and all of the men made my fathers send off a wonderful respectful day.

    THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR VAST EXPERIANCE AT THIS SAD TIME FOR US WITHOUT YOUR AMAZING RESPECTFULL PERSONAL. WELL DONE TOO YOU ALL.

  • 5 Richard Walton 6th Nov 2021

    It is obviously a difficult time whenever you engage Farmers, but from the outset Chris was supportive and open to everything the family wanted to do. She communicated well, helped wherever necessary and no request was too much trouble. On the day of the Cremation and Burial, everyone was professional and knew their job and they helped the family through it all, directing and supporting where necessary but not being overpowering .. there but in the background ensuring everything was .. well perfect. I cannot recommend Farmers highly enough.
