    Cannot recommend Stephen McCosh enough.  We were in Italy when my mum passed and from our phone call that day my mum was so well looked after and we were reassured everything would be sorted and it was. .Everyone was just so professional and friendly and made a difficult time so much easier.  Heather in Monkstown office was amazing and the two lads on the day of the funeral were brilliant.  Thank you all so much. Very much appreciated by all the family

    From the night mum Reta Lyons died to the funeral the staff were amazing. Nothing too much trouble. Never rushed. Always asking if they could do anything else.  They organised everything. Everyone was so respectful and l couldn’t recommend them highly enough.  Thank you to everyone in McCosh funeral home. The flowers were amazing and exactly what mum would have loved.  You were all so kind and considerate throughout the process.  Thank you all. Christine Henderson

  • 5 Barbara Connor 22nd Jan 2025

    Our Dad Eddie Simpson passed away very suddenly in November and we immediately contacted Stephen McCosh funeral directors as we had previously used their services for Mum's funeral in 2018. From the first phonecall to Heather in the office we were so reassured by their kindness and organisation. Marcus guided us along and everything ran smoothly. Dad's funeral was from his home and the service was lovely. McCosh's provided the music and everyone outside the house was able to hear Katherine Jenkins singing. We were more than happy with everything and can't thank the McCosh team enough. Heather has recently helped organise the headstone engraving which was completely so quickly and was beautifully done. We can highly recommend Stephen McCosh funeral directors.

  • 5 Sandra Molyneaux 12th Jan 2025

    They have looked after the funerals of my dad mum aunt and uncle in last 2 yrs , when you are in a state of grief and shock someone has to be there to help you organise everything , from the first phone call to Heather I can tell you that I felt at ease knowing that we would be in safe hands , tbh it's like dealing with friends who genuinely care , my family were totally lost in how to deal with death and we left all arrangements in their hands,every single member of staff that we met treated us with respect and care and nothing was to much trouble , they knew that we as a family had suffered more than most in last 2 yrs and we were treated like friends , and they made it easy for us to cope with arrangements , thank you for everything x
