Dennis Renshaw 1st Feb 2024

From first visiting my home to remove my Wife’s Body, I found the two Gentlemen from Owens were very courteous and showed the upmost respect and were dignified in everything they did. I knew from that moment that my Wife would be in safe hands. This was the reason I chose Owens to carry out the Cremation. I now have my Wife’s Ashes. From start to finish I cannot find fault with the very Kind and Thoughtful Staff at Owens. 

Simon Mercer 1st Feb 2024

The whole of the staff at Owens were nothing less than exemplary. Their compassion was second to none, always considerate, with helpful advice, every time I had reason to speak to them. I would unreservedly recommend this friendly, kind and family run business, especially Alex, to anyone who has to unfortunately use their services. Thank you!

  • 5 Julie Dallinger 7th Jan 2024

    I would not go anywhere else. Lorraine and Alex and their Team give that special, caring touch. We were recently blown away by the attention to detail, personal touches in the Hearst on the final journey, if I could sun it up I’d say, if you want love and respect of your loved one, even after passing, these are the Team. Our recent care, planning and funeral of our loved one, was in fact a beautiful, happy day which is what we wanted. It was beautiful from start to finish. I cannot thank Owen’s enough for leaving us with peace of mind that the final journey was beautiful and full of love.

    lorraine Murphy replied
    Hi Julie, thank you very much for your heartfelt review. It was our pleasure to take care of your loved one. To know we are doing our families proud really does mean so much.

  • 5 jean Baker 30th Dec 2023

    I can not fault the staff, they are professional but friendly, empathetic and listened to our requests. The staff made a stressful and upsetting time easier, they were so supportive and suggesting a range of alternatives which I would not of thought of, enabling me to give my late father an amazing send off. The staff in Owens thought of everything, and took care of everything, I can not recommend Owens enough, they are amazing and I can’t thank them enough for their kindness and service that they provided.

  • 5 Peter Robinson 25th Nov 2023

    Owens took us by the hand and led us through all that was required after the sudden passing of our sister. Alex and Lorraine answered every single call, and there were many, and treated the family with compassion, dignity and practicality throughout the whole process. The funeral went smoothly and all the attendees commented that it was a great service. We would have no hesitation in recommending Owens to anyone, especially as most people wouldn’t know where to begin.

  • 5 Kath Gerrard 7th Nov 2023

    From the second I spoke to John early Sunday morning he was patient and understanding . My relative was collected within the hour and from then the care and updates I received from Lorraine were fantastic. Everything was explained and organised perfectly. All the stress taken away from me and the difference in cost was significant to other funeral directors. No hard selling to make more money , they even used their own flowers on the coffin to keep the costs down! A family business with a great ethos who genuinely care about their customers! Couldn’t recommend more! 

    lorraine Murphy replied
    Hi Kath, Thank you for your review and your kind words. We take great pride in knowing our families are happy with the care they receive.
    Wishing you all love and best wishes, Lorraine, Alex and the Owens team
  • 5 Robbie, Paul & Hayley 6th Nov 2023

    I have to say, on behalf of myself Robert and Hayley, that from the moment Owens took our mum from her house on her passing to the actual crematorium day they handled the whole process with great compassion and professionalism . We as a family could not be more grateful to Owens. Thankyou from the bottom of our hearts.

    lorraine Murphy replied
    Hi Paul, Thank you for the kind words and expressions of thanks shown. It was truly our honour to look after your lovely mum and family during such a difficult time. Thank you for choosing Owens. Take care and best wishes Alex, Lorraine and the Owens team x

  • 5 Deborah Moran 15th Oct 2023

    From the very start making the phone call we all dread, arranging a loved ones funeral, Owens looked after us & guided us through everything. Lorraine & Alex were amazing, showing sensitivity & compassion & sharing amusing moments from my mother in-laws life with us . They helped us choose the perfect service for us, we chose a celebration of life, & picked the perfect celebrant for us , Jeanette Roberts. We had lovely phone calls just checking we were ok, guiding us if we had forgotten anything ( we had ) , can’t recommend them enough. Owens are an independent family run funeral service, ( there are not many of them left anymore) & you can tell the difference, little touches that mean do much. No hidden costs, & lots of different options to suit whatever your budget . My husband was so impressed he has asked when it’s his turn can Owens look after him ! You can’t get a better recommendation than that .
    Thank you again Alex & Lorraine for making a difficult time for us the best experience it could have been. You are angels, thank you Deb & Rick x
