Derek Duke 4th Feb 2019

I would like to thank you so much for the professional way that you organised my mother’s funeral. I was welcomed and introduced to John who was very friendly and made me feel relaxed from the outset on this difficult day. Nothing was too much trouble and therefore I was able to take some time until I felt ready to proceed. I was very happy with your services and would like to thank you once again for your kindness and support on the day. Kind regards Derek Duke

  • 5 Richard Evans 10th Jan 2019

    The attention to the family's needs was excellent. Our Funeral Director helped us to organise a long distance registration of death, doing all the legwork between the hospital and registrar on our behalf, as part of the service; and this was before we ever discussed funeral plans and costs. we were well informed throughout and the day itself couldn't have been made any easier. thanks to John and the team for helping us through this difficult time. I wouldnt hesitate to recommend this company.

  • 5 Toni Hunt 17th Sep 2018

    From start to finish Pearce Funeral Services has been excellent, very supportive, accommodating when we changed plans and so sensitive all the way through. Having attended the funeral of Chris’s best friend in September 2016, we knew they would take care of Chris and there is nothing I can mention that was less than the very best we could hope for. Belinda was a lovely point of contact and Tracy was very efficient with the Orders of Service too. Everyone else I dealt with would do anything to help. The comfort they provided at this incredibly distressing time was beyond our expectations. My gratitude towards this company is immense. Thank you. Toni Hunt

    Very happy for the service that Pearce funeral service gave us couldn’t do enough for us to give my mum a good send off thank you all from all the family 

  • 5 Richard Luscombe 2nd Jul 2018

    An incredibly compassionate team who went above and beyond the call of duty. As the next of kin, and being that I lived overseas, John and his team made sure that I was involved every step of the way, even if that meant calling me long after out of office hours.

    I could not have wished for a more professional approach during my time of need and they are a credit to their profession.

    I cannot thank Pearce funeral homes enough for the service they provided for my son. It was a very tough time for me and they helped me through every step of it. They offered services I didn’t know were available and and looked after my baby boy on what felt like a personal level. They kept me informed on every step, every request I asked for they did without hesitation and worked with me fully on the financial side. The cost was very low for the actual service they provided and for the peace of mind thy gave me, especially compared to some other more corporate funeral homes. I cannot recommend them enough and my parents will now by using them rather than who they had planned. Thank Pearce Funeral Services, for giving my son the most amazing send off, just as he deserved 

  • 5 Christopher Everett 8th Jun 2018
