  • 5 John Harrison 5th Sep 2022

    From the very beginning, we had nothing but considerate and sympathetic care from the co-op staff.  They consulted us on how we wanted the day of the funeral to go and how they could help.  It was a family-led funeral and the co-op staff on the day - Tracy and Bradley (as well as the driver of the hearse whose name I don’t know) played a supportive and helpful rôle.  I would recommend co-op funeralcare to anyone.

  • 5 Olive Scott-Morley 27th Jun 2022

    Funeral Directors Tracey and Hannah of Parkstone Funeral Care were really fantastic in organising the recent funeral of Hazel. From the moment I entered their premises, I was met with sympathy and understanding. Hannah understood completely what I really wanted for my sister and made all the arrangements quickly and competently. On the day of the funeral, Tracey quietly and sympathetically directed us as to what would happen, all went very well indeed, and we left feeling it had been a sad but lovely occasion. Thank you Tracey and Hannah, you are super stars!

  • 5 Lindsey Burton 25th Mar 2022

    At an emotional time Hannah and her team guided me through the whole process, showing empathy and understanding. Giving guidance and support in completing the paperwork which was very much appreciated as I live some distance away. The service provided by the whole team was excellent.

  • 5 Tim Brown 24th Mar 2022

    I wish to thank all of the team members at the Co-op Funeral Care in Parkstone, especially Hannah who guided us through the process in a caring, compassionate and professional manner.



    Also, thanks to Tracy for the arrangement of the hearse & limousine and also for guiding us through the service.



    From the start of the process to the call I received on Monday morning to ask how things went with the cremation, I cannot find a single aspect that wasn’t first class.



    Our family really appreciates the support you gave us, it was exceptional.



    We’re also indebted to Hannah for recommending Stewart Russell to lead the service; what a lovely man he is.



    He took time to visit us before the funeral and stayed for well over an hour, enabling us to provide him with information of Dad’s character and the chapters of his life.



    His Eulogy was beautifully delivered, and was the right mix of sufficient somber content but also informal, jovial elements too. He interpreted our brief impeccably and made such an event so poignant.


    Finally, thanks for today with the handover of dad's ashes. I wasn't expecting there to be as much as there was, and the stories from Hannah and the other client regarding their scatterings were slightly amusing and lifted my mood.

    You have been amazing, thank you

  • 5 Trisha Lenoir 22nd Mar 2022
