    We cannot thank everyone enough for all the help and support we have received over the past few weeks. You all made the process stress free so thank you!

  • 5 Katrina Law 3rd Oct 2022

    The loss of my mother was an incredibly emotional and distressing time for me, and I needed a funeral director I could trust with both her care and the organisation of her final send-off. Having used the Cooperative Funeralcare previously, they were the obvious choice. I'm both delighted and relieved with that choice as their care of my mother was first-class: respectful, warm and accommodating.
    Their organisation of the funeral day itself was flexible, compassionate, methodical and they ensured her wishes were carried out to the letter, keeping me fully informed along the way.
    The service itself was wonderful with everything from the coffin and flowers to the printed order of service and memorial pin badges absolutely perfect for our needs.
    Every person I worked with at the Coop Pontefract was polite, empathetic, professional and respectful. With special thanks to Olivia for looking after mum in the Chapel of Rest, to Duane for organising the whole process seamlessly and to Sam for her fantastic work as Funeral Director on the day.
    They made a hard time just that little bit easier, and I thank them sincerely for that.
