I found Button and family to very sympathetic and professional looking after my late wife. Nothing was ever too much trouble even offering access out of normal hours They are absolutely amazing.

Eleanor Hoal 11th Apr 2018

Dear Andrea & Family, Thank you all so much for the first class service you provided to my family and I to help us cope with and make the necessary arrangements for our sudden loss. Immediately following our initial meeting with you we felt welcomed, and sensed a genuine empathy and compassion for our situation which we had not experienced elsewhere. Not only did you take care of absolutely everything, but you offered a truly professional, one-to-one bespoke service to us all. You truly respected and accommodated all of our wishes (often at a moment’s notice) and offered each of us humanistic counselling at precisely the right moments. Each time we left Buttons, we felt comforted and relieved that our loved one was in the best, most caring possible hands before they were laid to rest. On the day itself you and your team were the epitome of professionalism, decorum and comfort; your words to me especially gave me the extra courage I needed to do my very best for my loved one. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for your relentless compassion and professionalism throughout what has been a very dark time for us all. I am so humbled and in awe by what you do for families every day, and I am so grateful that Medway has you. God bless you all. xxxXxxx

    Dear Eleanor, My daring, thank you so, so much for taking the time and trouble to write such kind comments especially at what I know is such a hard time. You should all hold your heads high - you did your brother proud, and helping us to carry him into church etc is not easy, but you did it with great dignity. God bless you and take care. Andrea CB

    Andrea and her family are like family to us now . since they looked after my father in law when he passed we knew we would not be using anyone else for our funeral needs. Five stars are not enough!

  • 5 Jane Button 5th Mar 2018

    After receiving the shocking news from medway hospital that our much loved mum Shirley Higgins had passed away without any of us having a chance to say goodbye and spend her last moments with her our family was distraught. Without Andrea's help care and support our mum would have been left in medway hospital all over Christmas which would have been totally unbearable for all of us. Her empathy and kindness shown to us all made us feel that our mum was now in her safe hands. Andrea made us feel at ease at the worst time of our lives by being totally professional but in such a gentle and caring way, involving us in every decision made and making sure the day was a beautiful celebration of mum's life.
    We would like to thank you Andrea and team for all the love help care and support shown to us and our beloved mum.
    We truly believe that Button & Family were the answer to our prayers...
    We will be forever grateful
    Paul, Pauline and Jane

    Andrea Button replied
    Dear Paul, Pauline and Jane,

    What kind words - thank you so much, it was and is clear how much your beautiful mum was and is loved so your words will be treasured by us all although I must add as lovely people you were a privilege to care for and walk alongside. Love to you all Andrea, Dad and team x

  • 5 Maria Brittain 19th Feb 2018

    I would like to say im a mum of 3 lovely children .and am 48 years of age fortunately for me i have never been to a funeral in my life . I lost my 19 year-old son in a motorbike accident by a hit a run driver i dont have words to explain how this turned my world upside down . Then to top it all the hospital failed us with ismaels care .if only i had the right words to explain to you all how hard these pass weeks have been . But what i can say is that buttons funeral services stood by my side every day and every step of the way . The family went beyond anything i needed .if only i could really explain how they made this most horrific journey as easy as possible for me . They were there for me even out of hurs just for me to cry . The whole family will always be with me for what they did not just for me as mum or my son Ismael who passed .but the love and care and support they gave my other 2 children who have lost their brother . I know i shouldn't single anyone out as the whole family of buttons were there for me but Andrea was and is a very special lady . She was without a doubt my back bone though all this . Words could never be enough for me to thank her . Andrea you are truly an angel 😇 in disguise and your family business are a credit to everyone im sure that has had to have you walk by their side's . Obviously thankyou doesn't even touch it . But Thankyou all so much from all of my family and most of all my son Ismael .i will always be entirely greatfull for the love and care you gave my boy during his last days in this world .❤❤❤❤❤

    Andrea Button replied
    Dearest Maria,
    I don't know what to say in reply to your lovey words, and thank you so much for taking the time and trouble to write them at such a difficult time, I will of course share them with the whole team. I must say however, that it was our great privilege to walk along side you and hold the hands of your children - they are a great credit to you but don't ever forget how lucky they are to have a mum like you either. Always here Maria - Andrea x

  • 5 Brian Rase 30th Sep 2017

    The whole experience of arranging the funeral for my mother was carried out in a a very friendly dignified manner. Andrea, the funeral director, & all her staff were professional at all times and nothing seemed to be to much trouble. My mother was laid out in the chapel of rest and looked like she was asleep which was very comforting to my father. I would recommend Buttons Funeral Service without hesitation.

    Andrea Button replied
    Dear Brian, we are all very touched by your kind words and we are very glad that that we were able to give dad some small comfort at such a sad time for you all - take care, the kettle is always on! Andrea
  • 5 Paul Robinson 19th Sep 2017

    We were so glad we chose Button and Family for mum's funeral arrangements. Andrea was fantastic from the outset. Kind, sympathetic, compassionate and understanding. Nothing was too much trouble and we couldn't have asked for anything better.
    Thank you so much for making a very difficult time worry free in terms of arrangements and a bit more bearable.

    Andrea Button replied
    It was a privilege to help you and your family Paul and especially your lovely dad. Travel safely to Newcastle and I might see you there!
    Take Good Care Andrea

  • 5 Terry Parker 2nd Jul 2017

    Andrea and the whole team at Button and Family Funeral Services are exceptional. from my first phone call I was the only person that mattered, the arranging of my son Neil / Colby's funeral was the main topic of conversation, Andrea and the team were Respectful, Courteous, Understanding, Professional and a pleasure to work with. Like I will never forget this day I will always remember Andrea and the whole team for the Peace and Tranquility surrounding not only myself but everybody attending the Funeral Service. I can not thank the whole team enough.
