First class, can not recommend Robert highly enough. Made the difficult process as painless as possible with great care & attention given to every detail, carrying out our wishes to the letter. A very personable & dedicated man, making our very personalised & individual home burial a day to be proud of. We will be highly recommending Robert to our family & friends.

I would like to thank Village Undertakers for the sensitive and accurate portrayal of my sister Sonya's life. The eulogy was delivered by Robert with humour and compassion. Nothing was too much in meeting my requests and offering good guidance through out from start to finish. I wholeheartedly thank Robert for for his ability to listen and compose such a wonderful tribute to Sonya with many anecdotes from Family, Friends and Colleagues. I recommend Village Undertakers to anyone having the unfortunate task of arranging a funeral for family, friends or others. It is a truly personal service that is offered and one that will be forever in my thoughts when thinking about Sonya.

Thank you Robert for your consideration and kindness throughout this most difficult time. You took the worry out of my wife’s funeral allowing me and our family time to say our goodbyes. Your kind, gentle and down to earth manner was exactly what we needed. The funeral was well organised and ran very smoothly. Thank you for treating my dearest wife with such respect.

    Robert was kind, gentle, understanding, helpful and very compassionate. He is also a registered Celebrant which meant only having to deal with one person at the worst time in my life. 
    He did my husband proud under very difficult circumstances during the pandemic.
    I would recommend Village Undertakers to everyone.

    Thank you to you all.
