Following the sudden death of my Mum with a Coroners investigation I cannot thank Mark Rouse and his family for making my Mum’s funeral arrangements smooth. Nothing was too much trouble and any last minute worries were smoothed by Mark and Carrie-Anne. Any number of viewings with relatives that had travelled were no trouble and Mum was just so serenely presented in her coffin, it was just what Mum would have hoped for. Mark was just so respectful and professional yet caring, kind and personal, he went above and beyond. Thank you for looking after my precious Mum like she was your own. I am especially glad I chose a small family local company so the personal touch was very welcome. There was absolutely no hard sell. From the printers to the Celebrant and coffin bearers to the care with flowers at the crematorium, it was all worry free. 

Excellent from start to finish. Compassionate, friendly, helpful staff. No job or question too small. Helped us through a very difficult time & made Dad’s final journey a fitting one. 

Under very difficult circumstances, Mark's help and support throughout, made a very sudden and tragic loss much easier to cope with. The kindness shown to the family was appreciated by all. Mark was present every step of the way on the day of the funeral, so everything ran smoothly. The funeral was unique and individual, showcasing the life of a much loved cousin.

The team at Welling were superb and helped us arrange everything for the funeral of our dear Dad with sensitivity and kindness. Christine in particular was brilliant at taking us through everything. On the day of the funeral itself, George was also fantastic. A, professional team, but with genuine human warmth.

I chose the Mears Carford Branch because they were the closest I could get to bringing my dad home before the funeral and I didnt want to go for a big chain. I had a long chat with Dianne over the phone before I decided to use them and she was lovely, and talked me through all my concerns and guided me through everything when I really didn't have a clue where to start. Everytime I popped in to the office Dianne and Yvonne were always lovely and honest which I appreciated especially when visiting my dad in the Chapel of rest. The service was lovely. Dianne suggested a Roman Catholic Priest who when we met I thought was ideal for us. Alan our Usher (sorry if that isn't the right word) Was amazing. He spoke with me the night before and was so supportive and understanding guiding us to and from the service and understanding what we wanted/needed. I really don't think the service could have gone better and I am so thankful to MearsFamilyFunerals for helping and supporting me to make it happen in the best way to put my dad to rest.
