James Summers were excellent throughout the entire process - compassionate and caring, they led us through every step of the process and took the tension & pressure off us and allowed us to concentrate on grieving without worrying about the funeral process itself. The funeral day was organised seamlessly & the service was excellent. On behalf of our whole family we would like to thank James Summers & staff Stephen Reeves, Charlotte & Vicar the Reverend James Henley. Regards, Rob Spry

Unfortunately over the last few years I have had to use the services of James Summers and each occasion I have been very grateful for their kindness, efficiency and professionalism. David Williams was my contact and I cannot praise him enough for his thoroughness and thoughtfulness through these events.

I must thank Maureen for her warmth and humanity throughout this sad occasion of the death of my dear mum. Congratulations Maureen it was a lovely funeral very professionally done. Thank you to everyone involved.
3 Melanie Pomeroy 20th Jul 2021

A very friendly funeral director who helped organise and co-ordinate the funeral. However, I found one reception staff rather unfriendly and abrupt - especially when I telephoned to arrange to come in and pay the bill. A softer approach would have been appreciated. It felt very cold, and unfriendly. They need to remember that they are providing a service to vulnerable people.
5 Jackie Davies 17th Jul 2021
