We had no previous experience of organising a funeral and we felt supported every step of the way. From beginning to end, the process was made so much easier by the amazing staff and attention to detail. Would highly recommend to anyone!

John Kimber 20th Aug 2023

As a family we would like to thank Jonathan Terry and the rest of the staff for how they dealt with our emotional few weeks. All the staff acted very professionally and fully understanding the situation, nothing was to much trouble. Everything was planned perfectly allowing us as a family to have no stress on the day of my wife's funerial. We would fully recommend Jonathan Terry to anyone else in that time of need.

From the beginning of the process when my dear mum was collected, Jonathon and his team were caring compassionate but completely professional keeping us informed of all processes and in turn this led to a wonderful day for my dearly loved mum. A big Thank You from the whole family

As truly independent funeral directors, privately owned and serving all faiths and backgrounds, they are committed to providing a service that honours the unique lives of everyone they serve.

Established in 1999 by Jonathan Terry, who has been dedicated to the funeral profession since 1985, they have built a solid reputation for delivering personal and excellent service to families throughout Southampton and beyond.

Over the years, Jonathan Terry have continuously reinvested in their business to ensure that they offer the best possible support to their families. In 2008, in response to the growing demand from families on the eastern side of Southampton, they opened their London Road funeral home.

In 2013, they embarked on a journey of redesign and refurbishment of their Peartree Avenue premises, culminating in the completion of the project in 2014.

A significant milestone in their journey came in December 2018 when they acquired 103 Peartree Avenue and launched the White Lily Centre, a bereavement centre offering counselling services to all. The White Lily Centre stands as a symbol of their commitment to supporting families beyond the funeral itself.

In May 2022, their services were further enhanced with the introduction of a new fleet of Mercedes hearses and limousines, ensuring that every aspect of your loved one's final journey is conducted with the utmost care and professionalism.

Behind every successful business is a dedicated team, and at Jonathan Terry Independent Funeral Directors, there is a team of compassionate professionals who truly believe in the importance of their vocation.

    Jonathan Terry and his staff has been a great source of comfort and support in a difficult time. Their attention to detail and sensitivity over how important saying goodbye to our dad was amazing. We went with them for my mum ten years ago and that bought us back this time too. I highly recommend their services. As the little details they paid attention to made it very special. Truly respectful and honourable treatment throughout the whole experience. Very grateful to them all

  • 5 Steven Fisher 24th Jul 2023

    We approached Jonathan Terry and his staff regarding Paul's funeral arrangements, and from the very beginning, my son Dave and I, from our first meeting with Jonathan, felt that we were going to be guided and helped throughout the whole process, and indeed we were. Many thanks go to all the staff, who answered any questions we had and gave us guidance and information, including the day itself, where Paul was laid to rest. Everything was perfect on the day, a very professional team, and a good interaction between Jonathan's staff and Paul's family. Many thanks.

  • 5 Anne Pearce 21st Jul 2023

    The dignified care and respect given to my Dad was outstanding. I would not consider using any other funeral directors. Every member of staff met, or spoken to, was so compassionate, kind and considerate; to myself and my family. If you want the very best care for your loved one, look no further than Jonathan Terry.

  • 5 Catherine Reavell 10th Jul 2023

    On behalf of my family and I, we would like to thank Jonathon Terry Independent Funeral Director, Peartree Avenue for all their kindness to both my late husband and family members. Their professionalism and kindness in helping to arrange a memorial service and cremation made a very distressing event so much easier to deal with. All members of staff made a huge difference to us.They are without doubt a company I can recommend to anyone in a similar position and are to be highly commended.

  • 5 Michaela Bovey 10th Jul 2023

    I honestly can not thank these guys enough for everything that they did to help make my mums send off the best it could be, they bend over backwards to make sure we sent our mum off the way we wanted to. An amazing team. The only funeral directors I would ever use polite friendly and professional at all times. Johnothan himself took all the arrangements for my mum and did everything we had asked of them. Its never easy to say goodbye to a loved one but it helps to have Johnothan Terry's in your corner. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart ❤

  • 5 Sue Tizard 4th Jul 2023

    We were very much supported to create our own life celebration, rather than being pigeonholed into a standard "package". It's probably wrong to say we enjoyed it, but the experience made us feel we had given a great send off as we truly wanted. Most definitely would recommend and use again.
