Andrew and all his staff were amazing and I can’t thank them enough. They really looked after us all and continue to offer their support. All of the staff were extremely thoughtful and supportive and showed their experience and professionalism through their advice, guidance and actions. The funeral was beautiful and very well coordinated, we couldn’t have asked for more for us or our Mam.

    The service that Andrew and the team has provided has been absolutely seamless. His approach was perfect in terms of emotional support and a need to get a difficult job done.

    Andrew was excellent in every way possible. From start to finish and even after, Andrew was in regular contact with updates. He would enquire about how we were feeling and also giving words of encouragement in the terrible times that that we were all faced with after dad's sudden passing.
    His advice was second to none,providing everything we could possibly think of, and his staff were so friendly and on hand every step of way. We were really pleased to have dealt with such professionalism from the whole of Andrew's team.
    Andrew explained exactly how the day would run ensuring all our wishes were followed and true to his word the day ran like clock work and we celebrated dads life the way he would have been proud of.

  • 5 John Stephenson 14th May 2018

    Andrew and his staff are professional and compassionate from start to finish. At what was a very difficult and sad time for us we were made to feel it was all personal to us and not just generic. It feels very bespoke and not  generalised. We never felt rushed to make any decisions. They even played us samples of music to help with our choices for the Crematorium. We recommend Andrew for his family atmosphere wholeheartedly over the larger corporate companies. Thank you again Andrew.

  • 5 Nina Bainbridge 22nd Apr 2018

    Andrew Grey Funeral Directors looked after my sister with the up most of dignity and respect, they dealt with my mum throughout what was a difficult and prolonged period of time. During her time of mourning my mum was spoken to with so much compassion. The staff at Andrew Grey showed nothing but care and support to my mum, and to myself. My sister's service was beautiful and memorable. Andrew Grey himself led my sister which was a very meaningful touch and Eileen Osbourne led a beautiful tribute to my sister. They truly did go above and beyond to make things as easy as possible and to lift some of the burdon from my mum's shoulders through a very difficult time. We cannot thank them enough and would highly recommend them to anyone. Andrew Grey Funeral Directors really do go above and beyond for their clients.
