I received an extraordinarily bespoke service from Stopsley Funeral Care. From my very first visit, the interpersonal skills of the staff were second to none as they went over and above to make me feel at ease and to fulfil mine and my late husband's wishes. It was extremely comforting and reassuring to allow them to take care of every detail which took pressure of me during the hardest time of my life. The funeral was conducted with perfect care, precision and meticulousness and the respectful manner of the Funeral Director and staff shown to my husband and our family was remarkable. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    Hopefully, you will not need their services very often but when you do need a funeral director then Stopsley Funeralcare is the one to use.
    Very professional, polite, and welcoming, all aspects explained and any request is taken care of.

  • 5 Amanda Stansfield 25th Apr 2022

    Having previously used the Co Op for our mums funeral they did not disappoint this time round . Trisha & her team we’re outstanding. Trisha is an assist to the Co Op and has every angle covered providing a personal touch much needed at a very sad time . 
    The only issue that I would like to raise is that dad was not shaved & we were not asked the question. Which resulted in a family member having to shave him before he was seen in our home 
    Would i recommend your services again ? Yes I would but would insist that Trisha & her team lead the proceedings 
    Thank you
