Fantastic communication throughout making the process really easy and stressless.  I felt like you knew mum, dad and family on a personal level and we weren’t just another funeral being arranged. Loved the personal touch.

    Under the circumstances I think the funeral was as good as it could have been. Offering the outdoor service worked well for our family thankyou for offering it Its something maybe that could be explained better initially as I had a vision of everyone clapping outside and that wasnt the case it was only when celebrant explained that I understood Thankyou very much

    From start to finish everything was clearly explained and the funeral service ran smoothly considering the present pandemic. Helen was amazing and very helpful and also caring and compassionate, thankyou from all Lilian's family.

  • 5 Anna Thompson 18th May 2020

    So grateful to Helen and the whole team for their care and compassion arranging my aunt’s funeral during the Covid19 restrictions. We were concerned that it wasn’t going to be a personal, loving service, saying goodbye to an important member of our family, but it turned out to be really beautiful and tasteful, and the Webcam broadcast meant that the family in Italy and Scotland were also able to view the service live. Thank you.

  • 5 Mark Ineson 5th May 2020

    Thank you so much to George Brooke for looking after things concerning my mum.
    We have used this family run firm  within our family all my life.
    Everything is always carried out in such a delicate, professional and prompt manner.
    No finer detail is ever over looked, nothing is too much trouble and the personal touch is always very much apparent.
    I class Neil, Helen and Judith not just as professionals within their industry but as friends.
    I have no doubt at all my mum would be more than happy with the attention she was given at the end of her life and on her final journey.
    Thank you so much.

  • 5 Margaret Turner 5th May 2020

    Helen and the whole team at George Brooke’s were outstanding.  The care and sympathy showed to the family came across as genuine and the planning arrangements in difficult covid 19 times was efficient.  Thank you to all at George Brooke’s for conducting funeral arrangements respectfully.

    Under the circumstances well done you could not have done more to give Mum a dignified funeral and for that all the family are eternally grateful. Thankyou

  • 5 Catherine Wigglesworth 5th May 2020

    George Brooke provided an excellent service. It was strange having to hold the service outside of the Crematorium due to Coronavirus but it was carried out in a very professional way. Very satisfied.

  • 5 Helen Thom 30th Apr 2020

    Like many thousands of others during the coronavirus lockdown, we had to arrange a funeral, my father's, under very difficult conditions. George Brooke acted with understanding, discretion and complete professionalism throughout. They consulted us on even the smallest detail and went above and beyond what could be expected of them to make the funeral as positive experience as it could be under the circumstances.

  • 5 Sharon Flavell 29th Apr 2020

    More than we could have hoped considering the circumstances. We were extremely touched by Helen's words of comfort at the service. Much appreciated by all attended.
