This was the first time I have had to arrange a funeral. The staff at Co-op Funeralcare, Paignton were wonderful. They were so caring and empathetic and gently talked us through the whole process. They took all the worry and concerns off us by arranging everything from the collection of Mum right through to the cars, music and order of service. Everything ran very smoothly on the day and the family appreciated everything the team did for us. I would highly recommend them.

  • 5 Dawn Jones 29th Dec 2023

    Following the death of my mother my elderly father was at his most vulnerable. I didn't know what to expect as I've only attended a couple weeks f funerals and I was quite anxious However all of my fears were needless From the initial meeting to go through my mum's plans with the greatest care and sensitivity to the dedication of staff throughout including ensuring the music and words included in the order of service were accurate As a family we really felt supported throughout this sad time and nothing was too much trouble The whole experience has made me consider arranging a funeral plan. Thank you all for the dignity care and respect shown to my mother and support for my dad
