    Stephen McCosh Funeral Directors provided exceptional service in handling the funeral of my Father, Alan (Skilly) Skillen. Their professionalism, compassion, and attention to detail were evident throughout, and they guided our family with sensitivity and respect at every stage. Nothing was too much trouble, and their calm, caring approach made a very difficult time far more manageable. We are deeply grateful for the dignity and kindness they showed, and for ensuring everything was carried out exactly as we wished.

  • 5 Jennifer Drake 12th Jan 2026

    My dads passing was unexpected and came at the worsed time of the year on Christmas day. I approached Stephen McCosh funeral services and met with a lovely lady Gina. I was quite upset and unsure of what all I needed to do...Gina took that stress out of my hands and helped me organise everything, they kept me fully informed each step of the way and everything from the coffin, flowers,service and use of hall after was just how my dad would of wanted. On the day of the service a lovely guy Mark guided me and supported me and they gave my dad the send off he deserved. I can not thank them enough for all their help and support and organising everything for me during a time that was extremely difficult for me. I highly recommend Stephen McCosh funeral services as everything was handled so professionally and the support they gave me was amazing at I time when I really needed it.
