Support, Understanding, care and attention to detail cannot be faulted. Kaz was brilliant. Nothing was too much trouble, she was supportive, understanding and caring.

David Moody 30th Jul 2023

Caz and her team at Pearce Funeral Services were fantastic. Totally professional, sensitive, respectful and understanding during our sad time.  We never felt rushed and they were so helpful in explaining everything we needed to know. With their help and Raymond’s input it enabled us to give my mother a wonderful send off. The price quoted was very reasonable and everything was clear and itemised for our information. I would recommend their services to anyone looking for a professional and caring way to celebrate their loved ones life.

  • 5 Graham Peer 19th May 2023

    We are very satisfied with the professional help and organising of our father Geoffrey Peer funeral,it was excellent occasion.

  • 5 John Dyson 14th May 2023

    Triple 'A' service. From the start, we were in good hands, confident throughout as Pearce Funeral Services expertly guided us through all stages and discretely ensured we faced no anxieties regarding logistics. This included establishing links with third parties and making sure arrangements went as intended. All Pearce's staff provided a first class, professional, caring and supportive service to us.

    We received excellent advice whilst working closely with the funeral director on planning and understanding how all the arrangements work. We were afforded plenty of time too so that all our questions were answered and every aspect was covered. With so many things to think of, on our own we would have missed some of the key touches, so we were impressed (as well as relieved) that Pearce's had covered everything. Every process was in place at the right time, in the right place and in the right way.

    The sincere dignity and care that was afforded to our loved one was top class, So, whilst we were most certainly not preparing a send-off for a famous dignitary or film star, the standard of service, delivery and presentation made it feel as if we were.

    I am happy to vouch that the high standards, support, respect and kindness were top of the agenda for the funeral director throughout and nothing was too much trouble.
