This is second time in a very short space we have used Thornally/Dersingham. I can totally say i wouldn't use no other funeral directors.
Professional,respectful,caring,
in every aspect throughout towards a loved one as well as the family dealing with their loss.

5 Tanya Robson 28th Feb 2026

From our very first contact with Sam and Nicky, to the collection of Mum’s Ashes, they took care of us all as a family. They are so caring and took the time to talk and listen, helping us through the difficult stages of losing Mum. Sam understood dad’s need to help mum on her final journey and supported him in that. 
Dad & I have already recommended Sam & Nicky to friends and I am comforted in knowing they will take care of us all when our time comes. Thank you both so very much

Would highly recommend, we wanted a bespoke funeral for Richard, from a picture coffin to a vintage flat bed lorry instead of a hearse, nothing was a problem, both Sam and Nicky were so accommodating.

5 Sarah Maultby 21st Feb 2026

Sam and Nicky are professionals, they guide you through all aspects of the funeral arrangements. Keep in regular contact with updates and just check in with you to make sure you are ok. On the day, the church funeral service and burial went without a hitch. My Dad was laid to rest with the dignity and respect he deserved. Sam and his team know how to organise and conduct funerals. I totally recommend them, you will be in safe hands through a difficult time.

5 Rob Bunting 20th Feb 2026

We used Thornalley Dersingham due to the location. Our experience of saying goodbye to my wife aged just 41, was as stress free and seamless as could be. Sam and Nikki were true professionals but also very human in their care, understanding (I have 4 kids and even brought the dog to the chapel of rest!) and compassion for my situation.
My wife was well looked after and she was treated like a human throughout, refered to by her name and given the respect she deserves.
The help on the day of the funeral was spot on with no hiccups and allowed me to do what I needed to on the day without having to worry about anything.
I genuinely hope I never have to use them again, but if I did, I'd have no hesitation.
Thank you to you all.

5 Margaret Kimber 16th Feb 2026

5 Sally Nancollis 8th Feb 2026

Sam and Nicky at Thornally have been outstanding, caring, thoughtful and patient. My sister and I would recommend Thornally to do your funeral without any hesitation. Right from the start when they pick your loved one up to after the funeral when Sam and Nicky still call to make sure your alright. Nothing is to big or small while they guide you through this sad time.

5 Ray Sparvell 8th Feb 2026

Sam dealt with things so well, and was always so helpful and considerate. The whole process, although stressful, was made so much better by his care and attention to detail. On the day of the funeral the whole team were both professional and considerate, I could not fault anything,thank you so much.

We couldn't have wished for greater help. You were everything one could hope for in efficiency and empathy.
There was always someone available to answer any queries and the silliest problems were calmly and professionally solved.
My family join me in our heartfelt thanks to you for making a difficult day so much easier.

5 Wayne Gomersall 27th Jan 2026

We recently used Thornalley Funeral Directors in Dersingham, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care and professionalism we received. From the very first conversation, Sam was our main point of contact, and he guided us through every step with genuine compassion and clarity.

Nothing ever felt rushed or confusing — Sam made sure we understood each part of the process and always took the time to check in, answer questions, and offer support when we needed it most. His calm, respectful manner brought real comfort during a difficult time.

The entire team at Thornalley showed the same level of dignity and dedication, but Sam’s kindness and attention to detail truly stood out. We are deeply grateful for the way he helped us honour our mum.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Thornalley Funeral Directors to anyone seeking a service that is both professional and sincerely caring

5 Sheila Longstaff 26th Jan 2026

The caring service we received was exemplary. The funeral went very smoothly from the initial organization to the actual day and I felt very at ease with Sam who really looked after everything on the day. Thank you Thornally a truly professional family firm.

5 Katherine Raithby 24th Jan 2026

We cannot thank Nicky and Sam enough for their care, compassion and professionalism in arranging all aspects of our mum’s funeral. We felt supported and cared for throughout and very reassured that mum was in excellent hands. Would recommend without reservation. Thank you. 

5 Sally Dearden 23rd Jan 2026

The Attendants who collected my Husband from our home were respectful and dignified and very kind. The Funeral Director Sam and Nicky couldn’t have been more helpful and sympathetic and were so respectful. 
An excellent service

5 Robert Nicholls 19th Jan 2026

Unfortunately this is the third time I have had to use Thornalley in just over 12 months. I cannot praise them enough, in particular Sam, his professional yet compassionate conduct is above and beyond . Nothing is too much trouble and it takes away some of the stress at a time when you need it most. Thank you 

5 Polly Coyle 19th Jan 2026

I couldn't have asked for a more perfect service from them. My family & I were treated with sympathy & respect as was my late husband Tony. They treated Tony as if he was still alive which I found so touching. Nothing was too much trouble for them, with Sam, the funeral director even telephoning me on occasions to check that I was ok. I would wholeheartedly recommend their services to anyone. Thank you Thornalley from the bottom of my heart.
