  • 5 Janet Davey 6th Feb 2021

    I cannot praise Thornalleys Funeral Services enough. Their concern and sympathy and attention to detail was beyond all measure. Mr Ray Thornalley was so caring and helped me through a difficult time, for which I am truly grateful. I have recommended their services to several of my friends.

  • 5 Doreen Moore 6th Feb 2021

    The care kindness and consideration shown by Ray and all the staff was outstanding. From the first call made to Ray on the Sunday afternoon to leaving the crematorium after the funeral nothing was too much trouble. I only had personal contact with Ray Loraine and Chris but know all the staff give the same level of care and respect. Your care and kindness made things easier to bear. Thank you. Take care and stay safe.

  • 5 Susan Chase 3rd Feb 2021

    Excellent service and very helpful.

  • 5 Maria Murray-Brown 1st Feb 2021

    Everything ran so smoothly. I was worried about the flowers on the coffin going back to the church to decorate it and which things would go into the crematorium with the coffin - when you are upset this is something you can forget and quite frankly you don't want the extra worry. To my surprise I saw the funeral director take the flowers himself into a side chapel just before the coffin left the church. It was calmly established what was going where. Thank you Thornnalley!

    Thornalley Funeral Services are truly excellent and I would highly recommend them to others. From the very first phone call advising them that my father had passed away to being brought back home after the funeral, their efficient and friendly service was second to none. Their guidance and support at every step was much appreciated. They made a very difficult situation so much easier for us all by their kind and caring attitude. A really great family business.

  • 5 Barry Foster 25th Jan 2021

    From the start Thornalley Funeral Services provided a top class service especially in these very difficult times.


    Particularly memorable was when I asked for the Funeral car to pass by our house, because of our ages we decided not to attend. This was a very hard decision. However, the car stopped just before our house and Andrew got out and walked in front of the car and then stopped just outside it. Driver and assistant got out, bowed, and showed enormous respect. After a few words Andrew then proceeded to walk in front of the car until reaching further up the road. Magnificent!!!!!Could not have been better . Thank you.
