  • 5 Beryl Adderley 25th Apr 2021

    From start to finish, the care, consideration and total professionalism was second to none. Thornally's attention to detail and the personal care shown towards myself and my family was exemplary. We were taken through the whole process of my husbands funeral arrangements clearly, concisely, with any questions being answered and never rushed. Thank you so much Thornally team , you were all so very kind and it was very much appreciated.

  • 5 Marie Gardner 24th Apr 2021

    The care and compassion shown to us by Thornally made a difficult time that little bit easier. The help and support given to us from the start by Andrew and all the staff was excellent.
    Thankyou for a lovely service.

  • 4 Ann Dunn 24th Apr 2021

    yet again we could not ask for more help, a very caring team and friendly.

  • 5 Susan Rees 24th Apr 2021

    In such times, you need empathy, compassion and professionalism in bucket loads. Thornalleys exceed in every single one of these. The empathy and compassion shown to the families of deceased is second to none. Professionalism goes without saying, everything is done to a fine art, real masters of the trade. Wonderful job done at the worst of times. 

  • 5 David Bowers 24th Apr 2021

    Thornalley Funeral Services are from the minute you make contact, professional, kind, caring understanding and above all sympathetic.
    These are qualities you need when considering who should organise your funeral arrangements with you for your treasured loved ones.
    Andrew and Sam and the rest of the team helped put our worries at ease and the day ran smoothly for mums final journey.
    Horse and carriage was superb a fantastic tribute to mum.

  • 5 John Daniels 21st Apr 2021

    Our family were very grateful for the dignity shown to my father and us. They honoured all our requests especially finding the music requested by my father for his funeral. At all times Ray and his team were extremely helpful in the planning, insuring everything ran smoothly and were very caring and professional at the same time. They made us feel that nothing was too much trouble. We cannot thank them enough.

  • 5 David Coker 19th Apr 2021

    Ray and Andrew Thornalley were very kind, considerate and very helpful during a difficult time. The organisation and attention to detail on the day could not have been better. My sister and I would have no hesitation in recommending Thornalley Funeral Services.

  • 5 Paul Burney 18th Apr 2021

    I couldn't have asked more for what you guys did for dads funeral. Brilliant service from the 1st phone call to the drive to the wake.

    Thanks to andrew and all that helped.

  • 5 Gary Tuttle 15th Apr 2021

    Its not easy to manage and deal with all the funeral arrangements after you lose someone close in your life but Thornallys and all the team take on the responsibility and then support and organise the arrangements with such efficiency and very little fuss.

    From the first moment I spoke to Andrew on that Saturday morning you arranged the return of Terry back to King’s Lynn from Norwich and supported the family throughout the coroner issues right through to the final service management today.

    Its not easy managing all aspects of a funeral but Andrew and the team have made it so comfortable at this sad time in my family’s life and we all want to say a big thank you for that.

    We would recommend Thornallys funeral services above all others with in the King's Lynn and West Norfolk area.

  • 5 Samantha Sturgeon 15th Apr 2021

    Have used Thornalleys for both my parents funerals and I couldn't fault them. They are amazing from start to finish and I would definitely recommend them.

  • 5 Paula Grief 14th Apr 2021

    We are so in awe of how wonderful the service was that we received. Attention to detail was second to none. 
    Nothing was too much trouble. All of the staff are so kind & helpful. I have attended many funeral services that Thornalley have organised. This is the first time I have had to use them personally. There is now no way I would use any other funeral director in future. First class service at a time when you need support & compassion.
