Thank you so very much for the professional caring way you dealt with Mum's funeral. The family are very appreciative of the kindness and support given at this distressing time.  

Susan Mangan 13th Jun 2021

We used Thornalleys for Dad's funeral 32 years ago so immediately chose this firm for Mum. I can honestly say they did not let us down.

Robert Brown 12th Jun 2021

From the very first contact to the end of proceedings the service provided by Thornalley Funeral Services was excellent. All those who attended were suitably impressed, which was solely down to the efforts of Ray Thornalley and his team. As the person responsible to make said arrangements I had every confidence in Ray's expertise. Such confidence was fully justified by the outcome. A difficult situation made extremely easy.

  • 5 Donna Doades 24th May 2021

    Not knowing anything about arranging a funeral, but Ray, soon made it very easy. Ray and the girls in the office were with me every step of the way. They were very supportive and approachable. Ray made me feel like I wasn’t on my own. Everything was professional and to perfection, from start to finish. I would highly recommend Thornalley. X
