I cannot express enough our gratitude to Albins for how they looked after Dad and the family for Dad's funeral. We knew we were on good hands because they managed mum's funeral back in 2017. They did an amazing job for Mum and we were not disappointed when saying goodbye to Dad. A particular mention for Jo Branch in Crayford - her compassion, care, warmth and professionalism are second to none. We knew Dad would be well cared for in the days before the funeral and Jo made sure everything ran smoothly. A second mention goes to Alfie and his team on the day of the funeral. They showed my Dad nothing but respect and care. And the laying of a rose in front of the family home was unexpected and incredibly moving. Alfie made sure throughout to look after us and manage everything. We didn't have to worry about a thing. Leaving us to grieve and celebrate Dad's 94 years. Thank you Albins.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional service provided by F A Albin & Sons during the difficult time of my dad’s funeral. From the moment we walked through their doors, Joanne’s professionalism and empathy shone through, making an otherwise overwhelming process much more manageable. Her attention to detail and genuine care for our family’s needs made all the difference. Every aspect of the service was handled with precision and compassion, from the planning to the day of the funeral itself. The little touches, like ensuring everything ran smoothly and offering support beyond what was expected, truly made a difference. I wholeheartedly recommend F A Albin & Sons to anyone in need of funeral services. Their dedication to excellence and genuine care for their clients set them apart. Thank you, Joanne, and the entire team, for your outstanding support during our time of need. Aimee and Family x x

All the staff were very respectful professional & kind. Jo in the office was lovely & so caring too. No question was any trouble. Dad was able to sit with Mum the day before & Jo made him feel comfortable & relaxed. Steve led Mums funeral & made us all feel at ease. There was so many little touches, too many to mention, including leaving a red rose on the front door & when we stopped by the golf club too. When we drove past the office the staff there came out & bowed their heads as we drove past. There was water & tissues for us to help ourselves to in the cars. Thank you Albins for making a difficult time easier. We as a family would 100% recommend
