All of the  staff at John Weir could not have been more kind and supportive. Whilst they provided an excellent professional service which I cannot fault, they retained a personal service for  my husband and kept us informed through, which helped the family through a difficult time. I would like to thank every member of staff for their kindness and commitment for making the funeral everything I wanted.

When my mother-in-law passed away suddenly, our lives were turned upside down. Having never dealt with anything like this before, we felt completely overwhelmed by the amount of things to sort out. Choosing John Weir Funeral Directors in Gillingham was the best decision we could have made.

From the second we walked in, Deana made us feel completely at ease. She was incredibly kind, caring, compassionate, and highly professional. She organised everything perfectly, took her time to explain every detail clearly, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Deana made an incredibly difficult time so much easier for our family, and I would highly recommend John Weir to anyone.

Thanks to Deana and the team at JW for supporting us at this sad time. They were all superb.

We returned to John Weir following the loss of our Nan, having previously used their services for our Dad and being so impressed with the care and support we received then.

The team at the Gillingham branch, and particularly Deana, were incredibly supportive throughout.  From the moment they collected our loved one, through to the funeral and the aftercare following the cremation, they made an incredibly difficult process feel as simple and manageable as possible.

Every step was explained clearly, and there was regular contact, reassurance and support throughout.  Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and we always felt that Nan was being cared for with the utmost dignity and respect. 

On the day of the funeral, Kevin’s support was incredible. He talked us through each stage, made sure everything was in order and provided such calm reassurance at a time when we were understandably very emotional.

I cannot thank the whole team enough for the kindness, compassion and professionalism they showed to Nan and to our family.  They made an incredibly difficult time that little bit easier, and I would have no hesitation in recommending John Weir to anyone needing their services.

An amazing company. The staff of John Weir do this company justice.
After the passing of my mum, I helped my dad look around at different funeral directors to get quotes as well as sitting down with them and explaining to them what we'd like for the funeral and the staff we spoke to at John Weir in particular came across as warm and understand where other places felt cold and robotic. We entrusted our beloved to them and they took the upmost care in looking after her and showing her the respect she deserved. They went through everything clearly and as detailed as they could. They did everything we asked for and more. I would 100% recommend John Weir to anyone who sadly lost a loved one. The customer service was top notch, the person who helped us had years of experience and showed that her compassion never wavered and respected every client that walked through their doors. A true ray of sunshine, even when folks going through darker days, she showed compassion and warmth and thats what was needed for me and my dad to set up a date to lay ny mum to rest. Even before we'd signed the contract she phoned up the local crematorium to reserve a date and time for us when we asked if she could, and she made it happen. 5 out of 5 Star Service overall.

5 Kelsey Still 15th Aug 2026

I cannot thank the team at John Weir Funeral Directors in Gillingham enough for their incredible support during such a difficult time. From the very beginning, Deana made the entire booking and planning process seamless. She was warm, kind, and wonderfully sympathetic while maintaining complete professionalism, taking away so much of the stress and making everything feel manageable.

Our celebrant, Kathryn, was simply exceptional. She created a service that was deeply personal and truly centred around our Dad and our family. Kathryn captured his essence perfectly and brought our fondest memories of him to life with such grace and care—we couldn't have asked for a better tribute.

Thank you to Deana, Kathryn, and the entire team for guiding us through with such compassion and perfection. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of care and guidance.

John weir went over and above to support us.  All the little, important things that meant the world to us, John weir endeavoured to do. They went back over records from years ago to ensure my father’s funeral was similar to his siblings.  They spoke to me frequently and on the day, everything went better than expected. I can’t thank them enough for making my dad’s special day, very special
I would highly recommend after using them for all our family members

5 Barbara Sutton 12th Mar 2026

I would like to thank John Weir and his team for their kindness, support and professionalism.

To know that our beautiful loved one was in their hands gave us comfort.

We knew from having previous experience with them that she would be treated with respect.

Everything was handled beautifully and any requests were met without hesitation.

At the most devastating time, all at John Weir made the process feel more manageable.

Special thanks to Deana in the office, who was so friendly and helpful from arranging times for us to come to the chapel of rest, to supporting us when we were there.

Every member of the team were respectful and supportive on the day of the funeral which made us feel like they were there for us all.

The Celebrant showed great empathy and really took the time to listen to us when we were telling her about our loved one.
She delivered the service with such compassion.

5 Frances Salter 8th Mar 2026

We have used John Weir funeral directors for all of our family funerals spanning a time period of 30+ years. Their attention to detail is second to none.
In the case of my mother's funeral, Deana at the Gillingham office was absolutely amazing. Nothing was too much trouble and her kindness and compassion made a very difficult time easier to manage. On the day of the funeral, Shane and his team were wonderful. They carried out their duties with a quiet, dignified professionalism helping to make the day of the funeral run as smoothly as possible.
