The support we received with my mum's funeral arrangements was truly excellent.
From the time of our initial phone call right the way through the day of the funeral, all the team were so respectful, professional, caring and helpful.
Stibbards also arranged the Order of Service for us. These were beautiful & just perfect.

All the team at Stibbards have been wonderful.
They have gone above and beyond to help the family, including tracking down a family grave in Devon and finding out for us that our mums ashes can be interred there.
Debbies gentle reminders and detail checking were so helpful and kind.
I would highly recommend Stibbards to everyone.Lee Marston replied

3 Penny Sanderson 25th Mar 2024
The day itself went without a hitch and the funeral director and driver were lovely. But I felt that communication before the day was poor, we weren't even told in advance that our contact person, David would be away the week of the funeral. We had to keep ringing up to find out when Joy was ready to view and to see where we were in the process. However Wendy who stood in for David the week he was away was excellent. She made sure everything was done and really calmed my frazzled nerves by efficiently going through everything.
Martin Stibbards replied
Dear Penny, thank you for your kind comments regarding your overall experience. We are sorry that the level of communication was not to your complete satisfaction but we are pleased that you felt reassured with Wendy.
Best wishes Martin Stibbards -

I would like to say ‘Thank you’ to you all at Stibbards for your kind care & attention whilst looking after my father and the details regarding his funeral. Many thanks to Martin Stibbard as he was absolutely fantastic with helping my mother and looking after us all. She was so grateful for him.
Stibbards are exemplary & really are totally amazing … with the managing of all the details and the final touches that did not go unnoticed.
Your service on the day was carried out with such dignity and respect ; it was well regarded by our whole family . So many of our family and friends commented on how wonderful everything was. You took great care of everyone and everything that needed to be done.
The leaflets were the best we have ever seen , so very well presented.
So , I wanted to say, Thank you 🙏.Martin Stibbards replied

Warmest regards, Martin and the team. -

5 Christine Morris 24th Mar 2024
Everyone was friendly and professional. David, Wendy and Rebecca at Rayleigh were very helpful. On the day of funeral Scott was absolutely excellent. David was so helpful with all the changes that we had to make with delaying my Dad’s funeral due to Mum dying a month later. We had a double funeral for both parents.
