The co-op were very supportive to us as a family. Calling not only about the funeral details but also to ask how we were.  The day before the funeral they called to go over all the details to make sure it was as we expected. 

Jakki Van Neuren 12th Sep 2023

My parents sadly died within 9 days of each other, so the funeral directors were put in the unusual position of helping me arrange a double funeral. Stephen and the team at Co Op in Paignton were wonderful every step of the way... it was a difficult situation and they couldnt have been more supportive if they tried. Everything from the big arrangements to the little personal touches that every commented on afterwards were offered in a kind, empathic and personalised way. They were kind, considerate and compassionate and to be honest there is nothing else you could ask for in these difficult circumstances.

    I was extremely impressed with the way Co-op Funeralcare, Paignton staff handled the arrangements for my husband's funeral. Their kindness and consideration was second to none. I felt very much at ease throughout and everything went so well on the day. I would like to thank them all, especially Sharon Wines, the celebrant, for her organisational and public speaking skills at such a sad time for myself, our family and friends.

  • 5 Chris Soanes 17th Jul 2023

    The people at CoOp Paignton could not have been nicer or more helpful. I am not local and had to travel 3 hours to make arrangements but they made everything as easy as I could possibly want it and kept me well informed on what needed to happen when, how and where. Thank-you especially to Stephen who was excellent.

  • 5 Lindsey Taylor 3rd Jul 2023

    We used Paignton Funeral Care for our Father's funeral nearly 5 years ago.

    We were very happy with all arrangements and the service held for Dad.

    We did not hesitate to use Paignton Funeral Care for Mum's funeral.

    Stephen and his team dealt with all aspects of the arrangements with care and sensitivity.

    Again, we have no regrets and would highly recommend them to you.

    Our thanks especially to Stephen and Hollie but know that everyone on staff wanted to give their best to support us at this difficult time.

    I can’t recommend the Co-Op at Paignton highly enough.  The care and attention they give at such a difficult time is so amazing.  They genuinely want to give your loved one a great send off and gently take you through the options without any pressure.  Regular contact just to ask how you are was very much appreciated.  A great team but particularly Jen who was our funeral director.  Thank you !
