We would like to thank you for all of your help support and guidance with Mam and Dads funeral arrangement's, it was a difficult time for us and you hit just the right note of being  professional with a little bit of humour thrown in, it probably helped that Mam and Dad where so prepared 20 years ago buying their plans, Liz was also excellent, we were very pleased with the whole service.

  • 5 Jean Douglas 24th Jan 2023

    Everything related to the funeral of my aunt was very efficiently and sympathetically carried out.

  • 5 Karen Sheader 6th Jan 2023

    We had the funeral for my wonderful dad just before Christmas, and I can honestly say it was as warm and Ron-flavoured as it could have been. Gavin from the funeral home was pleasant, courteous and accommodating, and did a lot to make the occasion go off as well as it possibly could.

  • 4 Gillian Huitson 6th Jan 2023

    The initial meeting was good and Elizabeth was excellent in all aspects of arrangements and stepped in to act as coffin bearer even though we had advised that no one from funeral party would be participating.  Reception area deals with pre and post funerals therefore, interruptions occur f2f and phone. This could be improved (respected), as upsetting especially when collecting belongings or ashes.  

  • 5 George Sanderson 4th Jan 2023

    Everyone was so kind and understanding, nothing was too much. Gavin couldn’t do more for us as a family. Even took Mary around the sea front on her last journey. Something we hadn’t even thought about. What a wonderful touch. Thank you. 

  • 5 Marie Duncan 3rd Jan 2023

    Amazing, always on hand if we needed them and such a professional service, empathetic through this sad time still, nothing was to much trouble. Thank you

  • 5 Peter Groom 3rd Jan 2023

    From first contact, our experience of Co-op funeral care Hartlepool has been perfect - as it also was for my Dad’s 4 years previously.
    We had a consistent contact throughout in Elizabeth who was professional and attentive    who guided us through the entire process. All in all everything was spot on!
    They made what is a difficult time, so much easier.
    Thank you

  • 5 Eric Milburn 3rd Jan 2023

    Attentative staff, nothing was to much hassel for them.
    Helped to meet the instructions of the deceased last request.

  • 5 Pamela Lister 22nd Dec 2022

  • 5 George Whitehead 19th Dec 2022

    On behalf of myself and my dad the service was excellent

  • 5 Kenneth Bartlett 28th Nov 2022

    Cannot fault the professional way everything was carried out. Gavin (Undertaker) and Liz (celebrant) were particularly deserving of mention. Thank you.

  • 5 Carol Mortimer 22nd Nov 2022

    A very professional and sensitive service. Nothing was too much trouble. Communication was excellent. Superbly smart personnel and limousines. Allowed us to personalise some parts of the package and gave plenty of advice on choices and decisions we had to make. I would recommend.

  • 5 Karen Hobbs 1st Nov 2022

    The staff were courteous and professional. Providing comfort and reassurance when needed. 

  • 5 David Aston 31st Oct 2022

    Gavin in particular was very helpful at a time when I personally was struggling which in turn helped hugely.
    I was pleased with all aspects of the funeral as we're the family.

  • 5 Jean Gleeson 31st Oct 2022

    Special thankyou to Jackie who I first spoke to on phone. Very approachable helpful lady. It was very nice of her to introduce herself to us when we came into the office. Another special thankyou to Gavin. He could not do enough for us and arranged everything so proffecionally. Such a kind helpful man. Last but not least Helen Greenwell. She went above and beyond helping us with the service arrangements. A beautiful service with Helens personal touch. You are all a credit to your profession. Many thanks to you all.

  • 4 Brian Randall 31st Oct 2022

    Fabulous very professional

  • 5 Gaynor Parkinson 24th Oct 2022

    An outstanding service provided by the Hartlepool team for my father-in-law’s funeral. Jaci is so supportive and the day was lovely despite it being so very sad . 

  • 5 Diane Wellings 24th Oct 2022

    Thank you so much to everyone who helped and supported us during this difficult time. Thank you so much to Gavin who was truly amazing through everything. We couldn’t have asked for better or more compassionate service. 

  • 5 Christine Peters 21st Oct 2022

    A lovely friendly funeral director and attentive staff. A difficult event handled professionally with care and sympathy. Thanks

  • 4 Richard Day 17th Oct 2022

    The only negative we can find was the amount of time we were allowed outside of the church after the mass, we didn't get a chance to thank people for coming before we had to move on to the crematorium.

  • 5 Richard Kellett 17th Oct 2022

    Absolutely first class service from Gavin and his team. 

    Jaci  was so lovely and the gentleman that drove our car to church was really helpful. 

    Gavin on the day was superb.  

  • 5 Debbie Oliver 10th Oct 2022

    Elizabeth was wonderful in dealing with my mother's funeral and hit every note spot on. A professional in every sense but balanced with the right amount of sympathy, understanding and advice. Death is never easy to deal with but Elizabeth helped me through every step with gentle hands which at least made the practical side of things easier to deal with whilst I processed my emotions. Thank you so very much.

  • 5 Lynne Richardson 4th Oct 2022

    At a devastating time as a family we knew Mam was in the best hands and we were at some sort of ease knowing Mam was treated with the utmost respect whilst resting at the funeral home.
