Tammy Hyndman-Morris 21st Aug 2023

Plymstock team are the epitome of professional empathy. Made the whole process as painless as possible. Even an unavoidable issue was resolved before we even had sight of it. They cared for both my mother and father with exceptional attention and organised a wonderful service for us to say our goodbyes. My perception of funerals has shifted entirely after the help I got from this terrific team.

  • 5 Patricia Kelland 20th Jun 2023

    From the moment the limousine picked up myself and my sister's to the end of both service's, everything went like clock work. My dear mother would have been so proud that she picked the Co-op and planned everything herself many years previous. There was no hic-ups or mishaps. The funeral staff were so caring and helpful we couldn't have wished for anything better.
    Many thanks.

    I was dreading arranging my loved one's funeral but Jane helped make things so much easier for me and my family. She supported us with the organisation of the funeral and was very caring and respectful. Nothing was too much trouble. She found us an amazing celebrant to conduct the service and when the day of the funeral finally arrived she guided us in every step of the way.

    A completely competent and highly professional funeral service, I cannot commend Sarah and her team highly enough.  It was faultless in every aspect from those joining remotely online to those whom in person and to a person commented how wonderful a service Ken’s funeral was.

    Empathy, compassion, dignity, thank you Sarah and team, not only the service itself but for every interaction in the preparations.

    With deep appreciation,
    The Martyn’s and Higgins families.

  • 5 Elaine Maria Robinson 15th Dec 2022

    I am very pleased with the excellent service provided by the Plymstock Branch when arranging my Mother's funeral. Funerals are difficult at the best of times but this funeral was complicated by the fact that my Mum comes from Formby, Liverpool, but passed away in Plymouth. Her request was that she be buried with my Dad in Ainsdale, which we were pleased to honour. Verity and Sarah at the Plymstock branch went out of their way to make the whole process easy and straight forward even when there were complications due to the distance involved and a different district council. I am very grateful for their hard work and attention to detail. My thanks also go to Mike and his team at the Formby branch. My Mum's funeral exceeded our expectations and the Co-operative Funeralcare was the best choice we could have made. I feel that my Mum would have been very pleased and
    all the family agree that we gave her the best send off. Thank you to you all!
    Elaine Robinson and family.

  • 5 Hazel Harris 14th Dec 2022
