I was helped through the whole process of arranging a funeral for my beloved late wife. Each step was carefully explained which took away a lot of my concerns and worry. The recommended minister who conducted the service was perfect,as was the funeral director,Micheal on the day. Everything ran smoothly and to plan which was a great relief at a stressful and sad time. I am extremely grateful for the kindness,compassion and professionalism shown by all the members of staff I dealt with at the co-op funeral care at Newton Abbot. Many thanks to all

Wade Casey 6th Feb 2023

From start to finish the care and compassion shown to me and my family by Lolly was second to none. Everything was carefully explained to us and she made it clear that she was at the end of the phone if we needed her. I can only thank Lolly for the sensitive way the loss of our dear mum was handled.
