Find a funeral director

Many thanks for the respectful way you have dealt with Mum's funeral and in your dealings with the family, very reassuring

A very helpful and compassionate service and great advice to help us through an emotional time - Rebecca, you were particularly supportive and helpful to us.

Extremely professional, very supportive and informative throughout the process

Thank you for arranging the funeral of my mother, which took place on the 29th November 2023. The expertise displayed by Allan and Gary in the organisation was comforting, helping us to navigate this challenging time. We would like to express our gratitude for your kindness and patience, making this difficult day so much less stressful. The professionalism from the whole team really shone through.

I had chosen a non- attended funeral and would thoroughly recommend Stuart Foster funeral services. I  was really pleased that I could add personal touches including Dad wearing an outfit I had chosen and putting some photos into his coffin. I was given lots of support and knew exactly what would be happening and when.  Ellie was amazing. 

Nothing was too much trouble. Everything went so smoothly. Very compassionate and kind people.

Caring and understanding at a very difficult time. Listened to what we wanted and made sure everything was as we had hoped. A lovely simple send off, just as Dad had wanted. Would definitely recommend. 

I unexpectedly lost my husband in October he was 40 years old. I myself widowed at 35 with two children. I didn't know where to begin planning a funeral. The first phone call Ally put me at ease and arranged a meeting. During the meeting she guided me through step by step and answered all my questions. We stuck to my budget and arranged the most amazing send off for my husband. The staff were very knowledgeable and had great ideas. Whilst in the chapel every detail was perfect, they were amazing with my two girls age 13 and 6. My 13 year old visited the chapel daily the staff made her feel welcome and at ease to attend alone after school. When my 6 year old went they kept it light and fun, She loved getting sweets and colouring pictures for her daddy in his special room. The whole day was arranged perfectly and he was given a perfect send off dignified but age appropriate for our young family. I was even given an excellent referral for a headstone! Thank you all so very much it's awful the reason we met but our meeting is something I'll never forget.

They held our hands from start to finish and guided us through the whole process. The staff in the office, drivers and everyone involved made the day go very smoothly and took the stress away at a very difficult time. Highly recommended 

Jean had a funeral plan in place so organising proved to be an easier process.  We found Devon & the team to be professional in outlining the finer details in a caring & efficient manner.   Thanks to everyone concerned.

The service was carried out with great dignity and respect.

Can't praise all the staff here enough, from initial contact, right through to the drivers, kept us informed throughout. would recommend. Took pressure of us in difficult time.

All the staff we had contact with were lovely and very caring, would recommend to anyone, First class service

The service was excellent. Was provided with excellent choice of Celebrant by Diane Clark the Funeral Director. Whenever I had need to contact the office or go there, was treated with the utmost courtesy and compassion. The young ladies at Carlisle helped me greatly preparing the Order of Service. On the day everything went with a well prepared efficiency and the team were excellent. Quite a number of people have since commented on the moving and excellent service. Many thanks to the team.

Helpful umder standing good all round

All the funeral arrangements carried out very efficiently with such dignity. All our family would particularly like to thank Angela and Leanne very much. Margaret
