From the minute I contacted Thornally the care and service was been first class. Everything was dealt with care and respect for my late grandfather. I can highly recommend them. As a family we’d like to take this opportunity to thank them all so much. Lisa

Sadly this is the 4th time of using the service. They are kind, thoughtful and take fantastic care to ensure the process is as easy as possible.  They needed to transport mum home to kings lynn. This was very worrying but the team were fantastic. I would highly recommend Thornalleys and their professional, caring team.

We couldn't have asked for anymore as a family for the goodbye of someone so close to us. Respectful and dignified throughout and every fine detail was followed as requested which made a difficult time somewhat easier.

  • 5 Janet Scott 24th Nov 2023

    The customer care I received from Thornalley was outstanding. They could not have been any more reassuring, organised and efficient. I do not live in Norfolk and it was a bit daunting to organise a funeral from a distance but Ray, Andrew and the whole team were so supportive throughout the planning stages and on the day. Thank you so much. J from Hertfordshire.
