5 Lindsay Williams 25th Mar 2019

The kindness and professionalism was really appreciated. Would definitely recommend your services.

5 Clive Herbert 24th Mar 2019

Everyone who attended said it was a wonderful celebration of her life and was so like her. Thank you for everything you have done at this difficult time.

5 Marilyn Burn 2nd Mar 2019

Kind, efficient, and prepared to take whatever trouble it took to get the funeral as I wanted it.

5 Angela Shepherd 25th Feb 2019

Ian was absolutely first class, providing a professional and respectful service that allowed us to say goodbye to Mum with a celebration of her life rather than just grief at her death. Ian and Denesha have managed to keep the best of tradition but include the best of technology to prepare and run the funeral.

We interviewed a few funeral directors before deciding who we would use to make saying goodbye special. Ian George was by far the clearest and most sensitive in presenting his service. Nothing was rushed and we never felt under pressure to make decisions too quickly. He presented various options but if we preferred anything different he did his best to facilitate that.

Mum was always very particular about how she looked, and Ian dressed her, did her make-up and hair to ensure that she looked as she would have wanted when people visited her at his chapel of rest.

And, although few people like mentioning this, he gave the best value - for example, the limosines we at our disposal for the funeral, wake and committal, with no additional charges. Ian and Denesha always returned calls and emails very quickly, no matter what the time of day or evening.

Thank you Ian and Denesha, Mum had a really good send off with all the friends and relatives (80 of them) agreeing.

Ian was very caring and made a huge difference at a difficult time. A wonderful professional service with advice when it was requested. All my family are very grateful for how he handled things from the day of my Mother's death.

Ian and Danesha have helped me to arrange two funerals over the past year. They're excellent. Kind, respectful and caring. I knew I was in good hands at an extremely sad and difficult time. Ian led the services and both were very lovely, appropriate and what my family members wanted. It's important to have someone who is both knowledgeable experienced who can help guide you step by step through the processes. Would recommend them to anyone who has the unfortunate need to organize a funeral for their loved one.

5 Dinah Grigg 20th Nov 2018

Ian was most supportive and understanding at a difficult time. He helped us to make decisions and enabled us to personalise the funeral in ways we would not have considered, making the funeral as individual and as special as we could have hoped for.

5 Maurice Saunders 15th Oct 2018

Everything was perfect. Every little question was answered and every request was handled with positivity and respect. The most painful of all circumstances was made more bearable than I ever thought possible.
The biggest complement I can give, and the family all agree, is that Ann would have approved of everything that was done.
Thank you so much,

Everything went according to plan.He was very good instructing my sons how to be pall bearers and being very supportive with our family at a sad time.
Unfortunately we have had to use Ian twice in a short space of time and each time he was excellent.
Thankyou Ian

We were very pleased with the personal service you provided. Very friendly, approachable and had the human touch which we needed at this time of distress and emotional turmoil. You were both thoughtful and empathetic and managed to introduce humour appropriately into a sensitive situation. You gave us time which was needed to make choices appropriately and guidance when it was was needed. Thank you for your sensitivity and ongoing support and for ensuring the celebration of Charlies life ran smoothly and was well organised . Our feelings are that it was a really personal service applicable to Charlies life. . It was what we think Charlie would have wanted. Much appreciated by Mike, myself and all the family. thank you so much. Claire

This was the second time in just over a year that we have used Ian George's funeral services. The whole family appreciated his efficiency, attention to detail, courtesy, respect and genuine niceness. Nothing was too much trouble and we were all reassured that my mother's funeral arrangements were undertaken in such a truly professional manner. Thank you.

Ian, Danesha and the team made a sad day, beautiful,  their attention to detail , plus the empathy with all the family was second to none. Ian's tribute of Steve was so good, many attendees thought he knew Steve personally. Thank you.  

5 Robert Hall 26th Jun 2018

I was recommended by a friend who had sadly lost her husband, and had used Ian George Funerals, and I'm glad, because Ian and his wife could not have been more helpful in guiding me and my family through the funeral process.
On the day of my mothers funeral Ian lead the service and made a sad occasion a good experience for us, so we would like to thank Ian and his wife for their help and support.
