Extremely pleased and grateful with James Summers Funeral Home for arranging and organising the funeral and service for my mother. I would like to mention Julia who was exceptional in arranging everything, kept me informed and was very professional, I cannot speak more highly of her and the service we received. Thank you

Julia and the team were wonderful from the outset. Nothing was too much trouble. If you want support, guidance and creativity, especially given the current limitations, these are the people to use.  Thank you to the team for making my partners send off so special

We were really pleased with the professional service we received from Karl & his colleagues. Everyone was helpful, supportive & kind - without exception. At times like these the calm demeanour & breadth of experience of this team was just what we needed, thank you.

    James Summers funeral home helped organise the funeral ceremony of my Mother with compassion and empathy. They answered all queries with utmost care and diligence, taking a lot of stress out of a traumatic time.

  • 5 Patrick Webster 29th May 2021

    The service provided by Summer’s Funeral Care was exceptional.  From the first meeting the Funeral Director was both professional and very considerate.  All the staff were helpful and answered any queries promptly.  The whole process was stress free.  The Coop package is good value and costs were as quoted, but for a large company I was impressed at how personal the service was and how tailored it felt to our needs.  The Funeral Director was outstanding.  Not only did she help plan the arrangements flawlessly but she was there to fix a problem at short notice that was caused by my oversight. My whole family are very grateful to all at Summers for helping us make the day a celebration of my father’s life.
