We could not be more happy with the service we received. Claire was warm, friendly and patient. Everything was explained so we could understand what would happen. It made a stressful time really pleasant. Everything was taken care of, Things we hadn't thought of too. I'm sure the actual funeral will be as warm and well organised. We took up some of the suggestions for flowers and the wake. All equally friendly service. Thank you

From the first discussion to the wake, Natasha was with me every step of the way. I cannot speak highly enough for the service I was provided, the care and compassion I was shown, and the respect given to Claudie on her final journey. The advice I was given at all stages of the process were sensitive and caring. I cannot find fault in anything. Thank you so much for providing Claudie with the loveliest and most fitting funeral.

  • 5 Sandra Williams 6th Aug 2025

    Claire Wassall and her team were all caring and thoughtful at the sad time of my mum’s passing. Claire looked after us at the initial stage, helping my brother and myself through the unfamiliar process and continued to be in touch both before and after the funeral itself. 
    The people who took mum and ourselves from her home to the crematorium, showed a great deal of respect at all times, especially Tommy, the lead, who advised us throughout as to what would be happening, in a quiet and professional manner.
    We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Woodville Co-operative Funeral Service to anyone looking for guidance at such a difficult time.

    We would like to thank Claire and Trish for such a caring, friendly and professional service as we planned Mick's funeral.

  • 5 Philip Cadwallader 29th Nov 2024

    Can't fault the service. Claire was very considerate to our needs and took upmost care in preparation for the Chapel of Rest. Claire spent a long time talking to us on the day we visited the Chapel of Rest and also went out of her way to join the funeral cortege when this part of the ceremony is normally performed by a colleague. Claire kept us up-to-date with proceedings throughout the funeral planning process and also gave a courtesy call following the funeral.
