    The funeral was arranged with courtesy, dignity, and without fuss.  The funeral director kept me updated constantly, and every effort was made to accommodate our wishes.

  • 5 Phillip Crowther 19th Jun 2023

    I used the Co-Op Grays Branch for my wife who recently passed away. From start to finish they were (especially Lynne, who facilitated the funeral) very professional, empathetic, practical and helpful. I was always updated and it was always easy to make contact with them, if necessary. I could not fault them and the Co-op must be proud to employ such valuable members of staff, including Emma, the funeral director and her staff, who all looked incredibly smart. I would also like to thank Jo Alexander, who was the celebrant for the occasion, who also played her part with professionalism and empathy - so well done all round for making a sad occasion more manageable.
