Highly recommend John Weir from the start to finish. Very helpful and understood what my wife wishes was. I would like to say a special thank you to “Mr John Weir” for personally coming to see myself and my son, on arranging the funeral, so polite, and understanding he was. Another big thank you to Sharon, she was so polite, helpful, passionate and made my family feel so welcome, and everything thing was done to a high standard from start to finish. The team at John Weir took care of my wife whilst under their care in the chapel of rest. My family and children would like to say a big thank you much appreciated John Weir, we can’t Thank you enough .. xx

We couldn't have been more impressed with the respect and service afforded to our dear Mum by all the John Weir staff on her final farewell. We felt well supported from beginning to end and the organisation and attention to detail was second to none. We would not hesitate in recommending them to others.

Everything was handled very professionally from the moment that the representatives collected my wife’s body from home to her final resting place at the funeral. All the staff members we encountered were charming and extremely helpful at this time of great stress and pain
