    Owens Funeral Services delivered outstanding care during a very difficult time. Lorraine and Alex handled my father-in-law’s funeral with genuine compassion and attention to detail. Every request was met without hesitation, and they consistently went above and beyond to support the family in every way.

    They communicated clearly, guided us through each step, and created a respectful and dignified service that reflected exactly what we hoped for. They were patient, understanding, and always present when needed even in out of hour times.

    Their professionalism and empathy made a hard experience much easier to manage. Im so grateful for everything they did and would confidently recommend Owens Funeral Services to any family looking for trusted support. Gary & Susana

  • 5 KATIE THOMAS 28th Nov 2025

    My dad had started a funeral plan with Owen's a few years ago. He unfortunately passed suddenly, and I am grateful he chose this place.

    Lorraine and Alex, from the first meeting and throughout, have been the most caring, understanding and compassionate pair. Nothing has been too much trouble, and everything has felt personalised. This difficult time has also brought me comfort, when I have first hand seen the care they have for my dad, and myself. 

    I am forever grateful for everything they have done, and I have never seen a hearse so beautifully dressed. From plenty of conversations had, they became to know my dad's likes and dislikes and without any ask, they added many personal touches that my dad would have loved.

    Thank you so much Lorraine and Alex for caring for my late dad, Dave Thomas. Xxx

    lorraine Murphy replied
    Hi Katy, Thank you for your kind words of appreciation. The pleasure was all ours to take care of your lovely dad and his final farewell. You did him so proud. Best wishes Alex, Lorraine and the Owens team x

  • 5 MARK HABIB 26th Nov 2025

    When our daughter died the trauma and grief that we felt was awful. We had no anticipation of this or understanding of the process that we now had to endure. Owens funeral, a family ran business,we feel became an extension to our family. The support, understanding, guidance and patience was truly outstanding. Alex and her mum Lorraine showed compassion beyond any expectations.
    They made this life changing event a passage that we could manage.
    We will always be grateful and thankful to them.
    An amazing service that through this grief will never be forgotten.
    Thank you.
    Mark and Sally Habib.

  • 5 David Flower 15th Oct 2025

    I can’t thank Owens Funerals enough for all they have done for us. They have been so kind, thoughtful and supportive throughout the whole process. Even now, when they have done all they need to do, they are still helping with problems surrounding the burial plot when they have no obligation to do so.
    I have nothing but the highest recommendation for their services.

  • 5 Christine Dodd 13th Oct 2025

    We couldn't have asked a better company than Owens in Liscard to look after our Mum. They not only looked after Mum with such tenderness and thoughtfulness, we, as a grieving family, were treated the same too. Without us asking, they added little touches we never even thought about, and suggested different things which were really lovely and thoughtful. I could go on and on, but just want to say a massive thank you to the whole team, especially Lorraine and Alex. Definitely a 5 star company! We will never use anyone else in the future. 💞

  • 5 Rachael Mountford 13th Oct 2025

    I cannot thank Alex and the whole Owens team enough for the care and support they gave me and my family after the passing of my husband, Chris. From start to finish, Alex went above and beyond. She is so passionate about her work, and it shows in everything she does. Her professionalism, kindness, and empathy made such a difference during a very difficult time.

    Alex included me and my children in every decision about Chris and his funeral, always making sure we felt supported and comfortable. She offered thoughtful suggestions when we needed guidance, and nothing was ever too much trouble.

    I am so deeply grateful to Alex and everyone at Owens. I couldn’t have asked for anything better for my Chris.

    lorraine Murphy replied
    Hi Rach, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such wonderful and kind words. Only the very best for your husband and lovely family. our thoughts and prayers will always be with you. Much love from Alex, Lorraine and the Owens team xx
