Pearl Morris 8th Mar 2022

Paul Traynier 13th Feb 2022

T.Allen funeral services are quite simply the best. Unfortunately for us we have now used them a few times and every time they have shown genuine care, compassion and sincerity. Nothing is too much trouble and they strive to make the process as easy as possible in a time that is very difficult and emotionally draining. My mother was a very special lady and she deserved a very special service and that was exactly what we got. Thank you to all the staff, especially Glenys for everything you did for us and my mum.

  • 5 Tony & Tracy Barker 8th Jun 2021

    We have used the services of T. Allen Funeral Service on a number of occasions, with the recent ones being last year for my dad and more recently for my mum. Sarah and Glynis have been amazing. Not only are they sympathetic and empathetic but you can tell that they really care and want what is best for those being laid to rest, as well as the families that they leave behind.

    From day one, they took control and kept us informed of what was going on at all times. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them and we were constantly being reassured that everything was being taken care of.

    Also, the gentlemen that accompanied the Hearse and Limousine were all personable, whilst at the same time being respectful of the situation. They were punctual upon arrival at the house and took their time to explain what would happen and when. 

    In summary, I can’t fault the service provided by T. Allen Funeral Service and would highly recommend them to anyone that wishes to ensure that the funeral of their loved one will be taken care of affectionately and without any problems, giving them peace of mind.
