John Weir Funeral Directors Rainham

5 Gary Sutton 6th Jul 2022

Having not had to arrange a funeral before you just hope that your funeral directors of choice will help you throughout the process and make things go as smoothly as possible. We went to John Weir based on the recommendations of friends and colleagues and we were not disappointed at all. Their service from start to finish was exemplary, offering advice when asked but never pushing us towards anything, we felt in complete control of all the decisions. The legal issues, what we needed to do, who we needed to speak to, arranging the celebrant, the music, suggestions as to where to go for flowers, right down to printing the order of services was handled professionally and thoughtfully throughout by Anna in our case, but everyone we spoke to from the firm was very nice. Delicate conversations regarding the way the deceased was dealt with before, during and after the service were handled with great dignity and respect. On the day of our service, everything ran like clockwork, with wonderful touches such as having our family members war medals on display were just added bonuses. I have no hesitation in recommending John Weir to anyone who has lost a loved one, and wants their final journey to go smoothly and be handled very professionally.

Brilliant service from start to finish. Professional and empathetic, nothing was too much trouble - made a very emotional time as stressless as possible. Can thoroughly recommend.

5 Trevor Thornton 4th Jul 2022

Anna was most professional, helpful and empathetic, the process was explained in detail so that we knew exactly what to expect. The Celebrant, Kathryn Sanson, was equally efficient and the Service was very much as we would have liked it to be as it was a small family affair.
The manner in which the whole difficult period for us was handled made it much easier for us, as a family, to get through what was a very traumatic time.
Many thanks

John Weir Funeral Directors were first class being not only extremely professional but kind and caring from the moment I made the first phone call to them to when our mum was finally laid to rest. Kevin and his team on the day were just lovely, helping the family pall bearers and ensuring everything ran to time. At such a sad time it's so good to know you can leave everything in safe hands.

Amazingly compassionate but pragmatic support from the second we phoned them. Made our sad day that little bit easier. Thanks to you all.

John Weirs was excellent from the beginning to end of arranging our Dads funeral. Every detail covered and we used all the recommended companies he uses for flowers etc.

Thank you very much John and your team.

Excellent service from John Weir Funeral Directors.
Particular thanks to Anna Daltrey who guided us through every step of the emotional process, explaining what we needed from the hospital, what the registrar needed from us and finally arranging the service and liaising with the celebrant. Every action was confirmed by email.
On the day of the funeral , the drivers and attendants were caring and attentive without being intrusive.
A thoroughly professional service.
Many thanks,
Mike Crossley

From beginning to end a totally supportive, kind, caring and professional team from John Weir looked after our family at an emotional and difficult time in our lives.

This is my first time to use this service.
I never realised just how wonderful this company are.
I would personally like to single out “Deana” for all the support and kind care I received. Everything was taken care of and Dena made me feel like she was part of our family from the start, she gave all the support we wanted.
To sum up John Wears.

Professional, caring and just simply amazing!
Thank you so very much xxx

We were very happy with John Weir's handling of Chris's funeral. Particularly Anna who was so helpful and accomodating of our requests, and made a very difficult time much easier. Shane, who came with us to the service was very professional and kind and made sure everything went as we wanted. We would certainly recommend them.

5 Kim Gambrill-Price 23rd Apr 2022

Amazing caring & thoughtful service from all the staff. 

5 Gavin Whatrup 11th Apr 2022

All the John Weir people I worked with were the epitome of professionalism and kindness. They made you feel involved, but not burdened, respected, but not patronised. During such a turbulent time for any family John Weir staff were always there to provide whatever was needed, and filling the gaps wherever necessary. Their connections with the associated agencies, from hospital to church, takes all the stress out of planning such an important event.

5 Ian Butcher 5th Apr 2022

The whole service was great, Anna was supportive, caring and very professional thankyou for giving Dad a lovely send off

5 Neal Harris 25th Mar 2022

Very compassionate, sensitive and supportive level service provided by Deana Worsfold, who guided us expertly through the arrangements and was always available to offer support and assistance as required.

The limousine service was exemplary.

My family and I were very happy with the end to end service provided by the team at John Weir.
