We first visited Crescent, and met Simon, when we knew we would need the services of a funeral director due to a life limiting diagnosis for our parent. We wanted to be sure we chose the most suitable service for us. Our priorities were to find a local, independent business that we felt comfortable with. Crescent met all of our best hopes and more.
The environment is fresh and modern, light and bright. It is stylish and clean, and feels very comfortable and welcoming. Whilst we mainly worked with Simon, Robert and James also played an important part in looking after Mum and the family. From weekend calls working out urn delivery, to recommending a celebrant, to dealing with some complicated (to us!) travel arrangements, to supporting and welcoming attendees at the service, I cannot fault the service we received.
Whilst I did meet with other services in Taunton before finalising our choice, and found all the people I met to be helpful, there was such a warmth and sense of welcome at Crescent. Mum would have enjoyed meeting the Crescent trio, and would have appreciated the decor and standards of service. I know she would also have been pleased to support a business that invests in apprenticeships as Crescent has done.
I would not hesitate to recommend Crescent to friends and family should the sad need arise.Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Catherine and Dee, We are so overwhelmed by your comments and the wonderful considerate manner in which you have highlighted our services to you.
It was a true honour for us to walk alogside you, following the passing of your much loved mother. We wish you the happiest of memories to sustain you into the future. -
5 Jason Edmonds 29th Nov 2019
Robert is a very understanding warm hearted man and made us feel at ease throughout the process or arranging everything for our fathers cremation. He made it all very clear and it was very simple and organised which made things easier for us in a time when it's hard to do things. Thank you Robert once again.
Robert Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Jason, It was a real privilege to support you and your family at this difficult time. I wish you the very best for the future, comforted by the cherished memories of your father. Kind regards,
Robert. -

5 Cheryl Manning 4th Nov 2019
From start to finish Crescent Funeral Services were excellent in helping to arrange the funeral of my grandmother. Robert, was our dedicated representative and from our first meeting he couldn't do enough, talking us through the whole process and making helpful suggestions on things that we might not thought about. Thank you for making it a smooth process at what is a very hard time for family and loved ones.

5 Jill Berry 28th Aug 2019
From the moment we walked into Crescent Funeral Services, we were treated with the utmost respect and gentle care, which continued throughout until the funeral was over.
Simon was very welcoming, understanding, kindly and so helpful at all times. He was always available on the phone, or one of his team would ring back immediately if he had to be elsewhere. He guided us through the details, the choices etc without making us feel rushed. Nothing was too much trouble for him.
Simon quietly took control and helped us to get through a very difficult day, and I cannot thank him enough for all that he did.
I would 100% recommend Crescent Funeral Services without hesitation. Thank you so much, Simon.Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Jill, I am so overwelmed with your kind comments. Thank you for taking the time to sahere your thoughts and feelings about the services we provided. It really was a great honour for me to be there and take care of the Funeral Service for your lovely mum.
