    Helpful, respectful and very professional throughout.

    At a stressful time it’s important to have people that know what they’re doing to guide you through the process for either burial or cremation.

    Thornalley’s did a great job of that . I would certainly recommend them.

    Andrew and his staff were compassionate, empathetic and warm to an extent that made a sad occasion very bearable. We wanted to give our mother the most personal and perfect send off and Thornallys made that happen. I can’t thank them enough

    Although mum arranged her funeral, we, her daughters felt at ease with Thornalley.

  • 5 Nigel Hitch 14th May 2025

    The whole team were absolutely superb from start to finish so helpful in every way possible they made what could have been a very difficult and stressful time so much easier for me and my sister in organising my mums funeral. Even with a possibly difficult family member to deal with they reassured us and made us feel at ease. The service was absolutely perfect presented by celebrant Janet and the whole process ran smoothly. Would absolutely recommend them, many thanks especially to Tracey, Ray and Janet whom we had most contact with but all the other staff were equally good, thanks again for a 10/10 service.
