Bournes Funeral Service, Faversham were excellent in their handling of my mother's recent funeral. They were all so friendly and understanding especially Jack who was so lovely in how he conducted himself and efficient in how he put all arrangements in place. Thank you all so much. You made a very sad day run smoothly and couldn't have done any more for me and my family. ***** Many thanks Jane Pepper

From initial conversation to the final service, Jack particularly, was informative, professional, compassionate, accommodating and patient. Would highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I cannot recommend Bourne's highly enough. We felt respected, cared for, and guided kindly, throughout. The latter turned out to be very important because it is so hard to think straight when you are in the depths of loss. We very appreciated how things were conducted on the day. It took a huge weight off.
