Stephen P Gay Funeral Service, West Malling

5 Peter Mockford 5th May 2026

Stephen Gay Funerals were caring and considerate from our first contact, before, during and at the end of the funeral. Much of the organisation was done for us. Thank you Lisa and Stephen.

Lisa, the funeral co-ordinator, arranged and did everything to perfection, offering us, simple, clear advice, throughout, making for us, what was a very painful experience of the passing of our dear daughter Nicola, a smooth running occasion. Her genuine compassion, made us feel so much better, with her valued input.

We would not have any reservations, about recommending the very professional services of Stephen P. Gay.

I cannot thank Stephen P Gay Funeral Services enough for the outstanding care and support they provided during such a difficult time.




From the very beginning, Lisa handled all the arrangements with such compassion, kindness, and clear communication. She made what could have been an overwhelming process feel smooth and manageable, always keeping us informed and reassured.




On the day itself, Dan, David, Dominic, and Paul were the utmost professionals. Their attention to detail was exceptional, and they ensured everything ran perfectly. They made all our family and friends feel supported and cared for, and most importantly, they helped us give my late mother, Jackie Winter, an amazing send-off that truly celebrated her life.




I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for professionalism, empathy, and genuine care

At such an incredibly sad and difficult time of mine and my families life, the loss of my Mother and the process of a funeral, was made as smooth as possible by Lisa at this amazing company. Never having to deal with this process before Lisa at the West Malling funeral directors guided us through every element of what needed to happen and when.
She held our hand through each and every step with such care and empathy. In addition she gave us details of all the local companies who could also help us. It was like a one stop for all that we needed.
We requested a particular hymn and as it was relatively new she, along with our lovely Vicar, went above and beyond to get exactly what we wanted.
I would highly recommend Stephen P Gay to take care of your funeral arrangements.
It is clear that they have a very long history of caring for families and their loved in a very professional personalised manner.
Thank you all so much.

We were recommended Stephen p Gay Funeral Directors, and we couldnt of picked anyone better. Lisa was gentle, calming, caring and put us at ease in our time of sorrow and grief. The process of going through it all wasn't stressful and was quite straight forward. We were also recommended the most lovliest celebrant, one that our family will never forget.

We are so very grateful for the wonderfully compassionate service that Lisa and Keith at Stephen P Gay Funeral Service, West Malling, gave to us as we prepared for our mum's funeral. We received regular emails and telephone calls to update us every step of the way, as well as in person meetings to help us with all that needed to be arranged. Their professionalism and extensive knowledge of what was needed made everything easier to cope with at a difficult time. Lisa was very prompt in answering any queries that we had, either over the phone, by email or when we popped into the office. We cannot thank them enough for their kindness and patience as they helped us to sort out every practical logistic. We felt looked after and cared for at every stage, as they did everything they could to alleviate our worries.
