Fantastic from the first day, to mums Funeral, very professional and all the staff were so help full, can not thank them enough

Kerri Hunby-Gibbings 27th May 2023

Always a very professional service from start to finish. Tom was very attentive on the day and a great comfort for our family. All the staff that attended were great.

Margaret Rylands 27th May 2023

The entire team could not have been more helpful, supportive and pleasant; both with everything prior to the funeral and on the day itself. This was so much appreciated by myself and my family. Please convey my thanks to everyone. I especially want to thank the Pallbearers, as I had originally been told that some sort of trolley might have to be used. The one hiccup was my fault - I was so busy proof reading the Order of Service,hymns and prayers that I didn't notice that Iain's year of birth was wrong. In fact, not until two days later. Thank you again.

About Us

Jonathan Terry Independent Funeral Directors, Pear Tree Avenue, understand the importance of saying goodbye to your loved ones with dignity, respect, and personalised care. 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. Their unwavering commitment to supporting families during your time of need is the cornerstone of their reputation for excellence.

As a truly independent business, they take pride in the reputation they have built, the dedication of their team, and the unparalleled service they offer to families throughout Southampton and beyond.

Opened in 1998, their Peartree Avenue funeral home is located at the junction of Gainsford Road and offers a private chapel of rest along with free parking and full disabled access. Their opening times are 9am-5pm Monday to Friday but they are available 24-hours a day by telephone.

  • 5 Brent Robson 24th Mar 2023

    From our initial meeting Ben and the team were professional, attentive.

    Our Mothers cremation organisation was genuinely caring, compassionate, empathetic.

    My brother and i were kept up to date with the procedure's progress, very well informed throughout.

    Our specific requests were given an impetus by all concerned in the planning.

    All aspects of our Mother's Celebration of life were carried out with respect, dignity, care . Any additional distress was removed due to the imperturbable respect shown by Ben and the team.

    The chapel of rest was beautiful, tranquil and provided a priceless last moment with Mum.

    Everything was efficient, smooth accomplished for Mum and her family.

    I thank you all for making an emotional , gruelling time easier than it would have been without your proficiency.

    Sincerely, thank you Brent

    Johnathan Terry's have been fantastic, in help, support and professionalism, we could not ask for more in such hard times, they take a very personal approach to the situation which allows them to give the best services and make it feel bespoke to the person who has passed, this is the third time we have used them and we will carry on doing so due to the above reasons.
    Thank you so much.
