I couldn’t thank Pearse funeral directors enough for what they have done. The care and support they have given with planning my late dads funeral. As well as the care and support for the interment.

    John and his team were compassionate, caring and, above all, respecting of our dear Dad. They were with us every step of the way. Thank you xx

  • 5 Lisa Reaney 19th Feb 2022

    My beloved husband passed suddenly and unexpectedly, and I was at a complete loss as to how to handle the details, and not sure I even had the strength to.

    After speaking with a couple of major chains with nearby locations, I was left frustrated and feeling like any service they provided was just a means to an end: their profit. At a time when I was devastated from my loss, the last thing I wanted was to deal with someone who obviously cared more for their bottom line than for my grief or my loved one.

    So I looked further and found Pearce Funeral Services, a local, independent funeral director. I am so grateful to say they were wonderful.

    I am disabled, and John Pearce came out to my home. He was so kind, gentle and empathetic. I felt like he genuinely cared about me, and truly cared about my husband who had passed. Throughout the entire process, he continued to display that same warm empathy. I felt confident that my husband was cared for with the greatest dignity and respect.
