First-Class, Compassionate and Truly Professional – Outstanding Service

At one of the most difficult times a family can face, Lawrence & Sons provided a truly first-class service, combining genuine compassion, professionalism and exceptional attention to detail.

From the very beginning, their approach was respectful, attentive and reassuring. They used their knowledge and experience to guide us through every decision, without ever making us feel pressured or rushed. Their priority was clearly to ensure that our loved one received the dignified and special farewell he deserved, while taking away as much stress and anxiety from the family as possible.

A special thank you must go to John, who took the time to genuinely listen to our family's wishes and went above and beyond to ensure that even the smallest personal touches were thoughtfully considered. It was those extra efforts that made such a meaningful difference and helped make the farewell truly special.

What particularly sets Lawrence & Sons apart is that they are a genuine family-run business with traditional family values. There was no sales pressure, no impersonal approach, just sincere care, understanding and a genuine desire to do the very best for a grieving family.

At a time when compassion and trust matter more than anything, Lawrence & Sons delivered both in abundance.

Our heartfelt thanks to John and everyone at Lawrence & Sons for making a very difficult occasion that little bit easier and for helping us give our loved one such a beautiful and dignified send-off.

We cannot recommend them highly enough.

From the moment Nathaniel arrived he has been thoughtful, respectful and very helpful.     He listened to my wishes and could not have been more accommodating in organising the cremation and latterly the orders of service and photo montage.   I chose an established family firm close by, because I wanted this personal service and am not disappointed.    I will most certainly recommend J Lawrence &Sons in future.

5 Raymond Clowes 29th Aug 2026

The funeral directors provided a well organised and efficient service. As it is a family company the service is personal and caring and I would not hesitate to recommend their services

5 Clive Bryant 26th Jul 2026

This is the second time in a few years that we have used this family firm and each time we have dealt with a different person. I have to say that both John and Nathaniel were both supremely polite, kind and extremely helpful. Every detail was checked and double checked. All the details i never thought of were identified highlighted and solved. This is an exemplary company delivering a fabulous service at a time in your life when you really need it. 

5 Matthew Parris 17th Jul 2026

J Lawrence & Sons are absolutely wonderful. John has been so kind and caring at this very difficult time and because of this everything went so smoothly

5 Samantha Hawksworth 4th Jul 2026

Chris, John and the whole team were absolutely outstanding. They looked after my mum with such dignity, compassion, and respect, making an incredibly difficult time so much easier for our family. Nothing was too much trouble, and their kindness and professionalism meant the world to us. We will always be grateful for everything they did. I couldn’t recommend them more highly.

5 Mary Kettley 29th May 2026

Chris and all at J Lawrence and son were very kind when dealing with the collection and funeral of my mother. They were very helpful in informing and guiding us through the next steps.

5 Jane Chandler 28th May 2026

We can not fault the care and kindness that was shown to us all.

5 Vanessa Weighlhofer 25th May 2026

This is the fourth time we have asked John and his team to arrange a funeral for us.  He is a consummate professional who has provided us with outstanding service over a number of years and has treated our family with dignity and sincerity.  We can only highly recommend John's Undertaking services. 

5 Ademuni Odeke 16th May 2026

This is the second time we have used the undertaker, hence our choice.

As expected we found them helpful. They took over several arrangements where we would have struggled and were kind and approachable

They guided us through all aspects of their services and assured us where we were doubtful and anxious.

More importantly, they listened to us, exhibited courtesy and patience and coordinated with the Celebrant.

Not surprisingly, the event went very well and the global feedback to the Live Streaming was very positive

5 Karen Mott 26th Apr 2026

The understanding, the care and the calmness of the service given was perfect

4 Jennifer Hewett 25th Apr 2026

Such care and compassion; from the collection of dad's body after his passing to the handover of his personal effects after the cremation service, we couldn't have asked for more. Chris and his team are all very professional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. First class!

5 Bea Brown 20th Mar 2026

Lawrence and Sons  have dealt with many family funerals and I found them professional and compassionate when arranging my father’s recent funeral. 

5 Sally Potts 28th Feb 2026

Chris Lawrence handled everything with great sensitivity and efficiency, responding promptly to emails and answering every question I had. The ceremony itself was beautiful and I was always confident that everything would go smoothly on the day. The celebrant he found (Verity Brooker) was excellent. I thoroughly recommend this company.

5 Kathy Collins 24th Feb 2026

Alfie and his team were spot on, sensitive  without overdoing it. Kept me informed at every stage so I didn’t have any extra stress. I recommend them wholeheartedly.
Premises at St Denys could do with updating but that didn’t worry me.
