Andrew and the team at Thornalleys made a very difficult and stressful time much more bearable and my Dad's funeral on the day flowed seamlessly. Can not thank them enough for all of their efforts and kindness along the way.

Suzie Robinson 27th Apr 2026

From the first conversation to the final moments of the service, the care we received was outstanding. The staff were compassionate, organised, and incredibly respectful, taking time to understand our wishes and honour them perfectly. Every member of the team treated our family with such respect and gentleness, guiding us through each step with patience and understanding. Nothing ever felt rushed or impersonal — just steady, thoughtful support when we needed it most. The service was beautifully organised and honoured our Mum exactly as we hoped. We are truly grateful for the dignity and warmth they brought to the day. Thank you for helping us through such a painful time with such grace.”

    Incredibly diligent, kind and professional service initially by Traci as our organiser and on the day led by Andrew and his team. The order of service handled by the in-house team produced a perfect document with great sensitivity and fantastic photographs. Thoroughly recommend Thornalley to handle the moments that matter the most when you are at your lowest ebb. Thanks team.

  • 5 Andrew Wheeler 13th Apr 2026

    We cannot thank Andrew Thornalley and his team at Thornalley Funeral Services enough for the care, compassion, and dignity they showed while helping us say goodbye to our dad yesterday. 




    Losing him has been incredibly difficult, but from the very first conversation, the team treated him—and us—with such respect and kindness. They took the time to really understand who he was as a person, not just the arrangements that needed to be made, and that meant so much to our family.




    Nothing was ever too much trouble. Every detail was handled with care, and their calm, reassuring approach helped guide us through one of the hardest times of our lives. They made a process that felt overwhelming much more manageable.




    The service itself was beautiful and truly reflected our dad’s life. It felt personal, meaningful, and exactly what he would have deserved. So many people commented on how thoughtfully everything had been put together. Enormous thanks to Celebrant Helen Drake for her wonderful service. 




    We will always be grateful for the support, compassion, and professionalism shown to our family and for the dignity given to our dad. We would wholeheartedly recommend Thornalley Funeral Services to anyone needing genuine care and support at such a difficult time.




    Andy & Pete  ❤️❤️
