Everything was handled absolutely brilliantly from the initial visit after my mam passed away. The funeral was flawless and myself and the family would like to thank Andrew and his team, especially Ben who has went above and beyond in his duties to make us feel comfortable. A very professional service. Thanks again for everything, Barry.

    Only problem was with respect to Orbitus. As we were late to get into actual crematorium family watching assumed the wrong funeral was shown and switched off so not happy about that.

    The Respect my family holds for Andrew and his outstanding team is more than any Excellent rating, its immeasurable! At the most hardest heartbreaking time in your life, Andrew and his team are there from hrs after your loved one has passed to guiding you through your sorrow to even days after burial, asking how we all are and if we need any more help. The dignity and respect shown throughout is absolutely heartwarming. This is a service money can't buy, it's from the genuine sincere hearts of Andrew and his staff which is Priceless! No silly ask was ever a problem, what we asked for, Andrew obliged and carried out. Not to mention on the day of the funeral the professionalism from Andrew and the admirable Rhonda was off the Outstanding scale. Rhonda like Andrew provides a level of service and compassion that leaves your heart warm knowing, your loved one has been given the best level of care and dignity possible and for this, we Mary Barkers family, will forever be grateful and proud to know. Mam was certainly our Queen in life and still treated like one in death. For this I'll forever find comfort for the rest of our lives, knowing we picked the Best Funeral Director ever. Thankyou to Andrew, Rhonda and all at Andrew Grey Funeral Directors x

    Lucy took care of us from the start, through the funeral and after. We found Lucy to be very polite, courteous, and at every opportunity, asked if she could help in anyway, very hands on, exactly what was needed.

    Very good service at a difficult time for the family.

    Thank you

    Andrew Grey arranged my Dad's funeral a few years ago so we knew we were in safe hands when my mam passed away.
    They dealt with a few complicated matters extremely well, everything went smoothly from start to finish, including all of the personal touches that my mam had requested. Having a funeral plan definitely helped, making the whole process simple, yet still personal and dignified.
