Everyone are so nice, and if you have any questions, concerns or uncertainties they were happy to help right away. Wouldn’t ever consider anyone else whilst dealing with upset of losing someone.

  • 5 Jason Cox 17th Feb 2025

    Andrew and Traci and the rest of the team were absolutely incredible for my family and I when we lost our loved one. They could not do enough for us and checked in on us regularly. Nothing was good much trouble. They are so kind and in your time of grief this goes a long way. We would not have had anyone else do the funeral due to the absolutely impeccable job that Thornalleys have done with previous funerals that we have had to arrange. They really are a cut above. Everything was so seamless from start to finish. I cannot thank Thornalleys enough.

  • 5 Terence Best 12th Feb 2025

    I cannot express my gratitude enough. The entire team were empathetic and very respectful of not only my family, but more importantly my mother who passed away recently.
    Throughout the whole process, from the initial enquiry to the actual funeral, their professionalism and attention to detail was exemplary. They listened to all of our wishes and ensured all instructions were carried out, provided advice and generally managed all the arrangements which reduced the stress for the family. This allowed us to focus on what was importance to us. 
    I would whole heartedly recommend Thornalley funeral services to others. 

  • 5 Tara Greenway 10th Feb 2025

    Thornally Funeral Services were excellent from start to finish. The lady we spoke to, to arrange the funeral was so friendly and caring. She allowed us to take as long as we needed to make decisions. Andrew called us the following week to check we were all doing ok which was kind. On the day of the funeral everyone was so patient and caring. The cars were immaculate and the drivers so friendly and caring. I would totally recommend Thornally. I fantastic company

  • 5 Christine Whitby 7th Feb 2025

    I was guided through the whole funeral process after the passing of my husband, nothing was too much trouble right through to the church service and burial. The compassionate and understanding staff were always available to help with any queries and requests.
    I highly recommend Ray and his staff for any funeral arrangements, thank you for everything.

  • 5 Sarah Crannis 6th Feb 2025

    They were so kind, helpful and professional. They assisted every step of the way as it’s all so overwhelming when you’re in the midst of grief. I particularly appreciated them referring to mum as “mum” instead of “the deceased” throughout our telephone conversations.  The service went smoothly, we couldn’t have asked for more.

  • 5 Wendy Browne 3rd Feb 2025

    From first contact about arranging mum’s funeral right through to the day of the ceremony, I cannot think of one thing that could have gone better. Everything was handled sensitively with the utmost professionalism and gentle handling. Mum would have been thrilled at how it all went. I would definitely recommend Ray and his staff if you find yourself in the awful predicament of having to arrange a funeral, you simply won’t find a better, caring organisation to help you. 10 out of 10.

  • 5 Barry Meekings 3rd Feb 2025

    From the evening of our loss we were treated with compassion, dignity and supported through every step to the funeral and beyond. The staff genuinely care and are consistently empathic and helpful.

    Professional and attentive throughout the whole process. Couldn't fault the service we received from Thornalley's and the advice and documentation provided. Especially the excellent booklet we received with all the helpful info. We were also very pleased with the Celebrant arranged through Thornalley, Helen Drake. Highly recommended.
