I can not recommend Thornalley Funeral Services highly enough. They were kind, compassionate and professional every step of the way and made an incredibly heartbreaking and difficult situation as easy as possible. Thank you for everything!

  • 5 Jessica-Jane Harrisson 21st May 2021

    Thornalley Funeral Services were the best we could have wished for. You managed everything with such care and love to us all, and so much dignity for my beloved Dad. We would never use anyone different for our future loved ones’ send off. Thank you so, so much. 

  • 5 Frank Berry 21st May 2021

    Excellent service at this difficult time.
    Everything went as planned 
    Thankyou

  • 5 Raymond Messam 20th May 2021

    The initial contact was so helpful and re-assuring, and in practice the funeral was conducted just as planned, with sensitivity and clear direction.  Despite the constrictions, everybody seemed to know what to do, so that there was a good gathering at the committal. I know Pat would have approved.
      Thank you for your care.

  • 5 Miles Clery-Fox 16th May 2021

    When my mother died, Ray and his team provided the impeccable service for which they are rightly known. Every detail, from the initial pastoral contact to the faultless, dignified and respectful accompaniment of the coffin's path from their chapel to the church and crematorium, was executed with utmost care and military precision. When I think of my mother in the future, it will always be in tandem with the beautiful farewell that Thornalley Funeral Services made possible. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

  • 5 Ian Hall 10th May 2021

    Despite the Covid restrictions Andrew and team fulfilled all Dad's wishes for his funeral. The service and arrangements reflected Dad's life and personality and comforted all.

  • 5 Stephen Morden 10th May 2021

    We really could not fault any of the service we received from Thornalley, from start to finish. Everyone went out of their way to be kind, helpful and show compassion at this difficult time. We were kept informed every step of the way, and really appreciated the phone calls to check to see how we were. The day of the funeral was made so much easier because of them.

  • 5 Dorothy Wildhack 10th May 2021

    This was a very dignified and professional service given. I was very impressed that Andrew rang mum twice to let her know that everything was all OK and he checked to see if mum was ok too. Which was a lovely touch.

  • 5 Valerie Hall 10th May 2021

    I would like to offer my sincerest thanks on behalf of my family for organising the funeral arrangements for my late Mother,Mrs. Betty Evelyn Moore.
    The service that you provided from our initial meeting to the final service of the funeral itself was exemplary.

    The very professional nature was outstanding.
    The care,understanding and compassion shown at all times was very touching. Always willing to offer help and guidance where needed.
    You are a true credit to your profession at such difficult times.
    God Bless you all and Thankyou very much.
