Tim from Matthews Independant Funeral Directors was fantastic throughout the whole process of planning and executing my mum’s funeral. From the first call nothing was too much or too small for him to deal with. You really did feel he was part of the family and cared deeply for our mum. He went over and above to help us achieve the send off that she would have wanted and often checked in with us just to see how we were doing. The service he provided was excellent and carried out with empathy and sensitivity. I cannot recommend him highly enough if you are sadly having to arrange a loved one’s funeral. He really did help to get us through this with kindness, and grace.

It was my dad who had passed away and we arranged the funeral for him. Everything was perfect. These five stars are for everyone who was involved in the beautiful goodbye that he had. Full of music and mirth, love and laughter. Thank you to everyone, it couldn't have gone better. Dad's funeral was testament to the reasons why a funeral service is vital. We all came together, we laughed together, we cried together and we supported each other. You don't get that with Direct Cremation.

Tim was professional and extremely helpful in every way. I was recommended by a friend and was very glad that I chose him for my husbands funeral.
