  • 4 Robert Hilton 5th Feb 2024

    A lot of the things I wanted. Didn't happen ie priest. I had to chase him up and also had to wait for exactly 1 month to go to the cremortorium for the funeral. I understand circumstances change. This is totally wrong. I'm not happy with the way things prevailed. This has nothing to do with the staff at coop Rose + Amanda thank you. No disrespect but Father Martin is very expensive and bereaved shouldn't have to chase up Priest

    Excellent service. The staff (Rose at Eccles branch( were very helpful and friendly. All went smoothly and my cousin (RIP ) was treated with great respect both in the pre funeral and on the day.Thank you.

  • 5 Joanne Aitchison 22nd Nov 2023

    The first time we came into the Co-op at Eccles Rose made us feel so comfortable and plan our Mum’s final days and journey with love and ease. 
    The care Rose and Marc gave to our Mum and the support they gave me and my sister was amazing, we couldn’t have asked for anymore.
    On the day of Mum’s celebration Marc was so thoughtful and kind, the rainbow ties didn’t go unnoticed, we were so grateful you thought Mum deserved a longer route to the crematorium and the way you made my young nephew included by giving him your hat as you walked behind Mum really touched us, our Mum would have loved this!
    We can not thank you enough for making our Mum’s final journey a happy one.

  • 5 Steven Green 13th Nov 2023

  • 5 Beverley Dodson 13th Nov 2023

  • 5 Louis Edmonds 13th Nov 2023

    Caring, compassionate and helpful. So happy we chose Co-op! Clear communication throughout the process and always put me at ease with each step which resulted in a lovely service for my dad. 

  • 5 Alan Smith 11th Nov 2023

    Marc and Rose were extremely helpful and knowledgeable in helping my father, helping with the repatriation from Greece and chapel visits so dad could finally get to see mum before Marc made everything run smoothly on the day of the funeral and at the burial of mums ashes, many thanks. 

  • 5 Roy Dearden 30th Oct 2023

    Everything went smoothly on the day. Thank you. Everything planned to perfection.

    Highly recommend the Coop funeral service. 

  • 2 Edward Melville 29th Sep 2023

    It's was going to be 5 star's. I have 5 star's for the staff brilliant. But it's the after thought of your loved one after cremation. It's presented in a purple shopping bag. In what looks like a thick oblong gray cake box in a white paper bag. The shock was almost to much for me. To be informed this is the norm. Across the industry..no I found out it's not. Co op chooses that colour. And instructions the cremation . Yes that could be as transport to the office but. They could of chosen better or told the people before they out laid cash. Or the shock. Lessened.

  • 5 David Taylor 20th Sep 2023

    Staff were understanding and helpful. Made the experience of making the arrangements very easy.

  • 5 Barend Anthon 18th Sep 2023

    The family were very impressed by the exceptionally professional service provided by Marc and Rose. From start to finish, they guided us through the process, sensitively, and made some extremely useful suggestions. Cannot praise them enough. Highly recommended. Thank you. 

  • 5 Mark Windle 11th Sep 2023

    The service provided was excellent. Thank you dearly 

  • 5 Deborah Johnson 14th Aug 2023

    Eccles funeral care helped us to arrange our dad's funeral (Alan Bellingham) with compassion, care & understanding. Marc was absolutely brilliant and attentive to our needs. He was always on hand to answer our questions. He always referred to our dad as 'dad' when he spoke with us & I loved this personal approach. At the funeral he was supportive & professional and he had the most magnificent multi coloured cravat on that matched so well with the brightness of what we wanted at the funeral. He looked after dad & us so well. The service from beginning to end was outstanding & I would not hesitate to recommend them..Thank you Marc
