Thornalley's Funeral Directors - what a super attentive and sensitive team, we were guided so expertly to create a memorable final farewell for our dear mother. Thornalley's respected and worked so hard to respect our wishes, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thankyou

Michael Rains 28th Apr 2024

Throughout the whole process of arranging my wife's funeral all the staff at Thornalley were very helpful and attentive and made the process as painless as possible under the circumstances. Advice was given with regards all aspects of the funeral which was very helpful. Contact was made at every stage to inform me of any progress and needs. A personal thank you to Andrew who was excellent and made the process very personal with his wonderful demeanor and attentiveness. Many of my friends and family who attended the funeral service would second this. Once again a very big heartfelt thank you to all concerned.

  • 5 Geoffrey Seekings 14th Apr 2024

    From the first phone call and then the personnel contact you feel comfortable with the supportive guidance and dignity associated during the emotional time during all elements of the funeral. As a family run business you feel the bond from one family to another making the whole journey that much more meaningful and fulfilling.The continued support will only help us come to terms with the grief and sadness that comes with this difficult part in life itself.

  • 5 Kay Lee 13th Apr 2024

    I would just like to say thank you so much. You was so compassionate with me and my brothers. I know you looked after my lovely dad, why he was with you. On the day of the funeral I couldn’t have asked for more, the way you looked after us and everything on the day was just perfect. Making a very sad day run as best as it can. So all I can say again is a big thank you. Kay.

    Everything was perfect excellent service kept in touch all the way throughout staff were very professional 

  • 5 Barbara Turner 11th Apr 2024

    Highly recommend this Funeral Director.  A caring, considerate and professional service with nothing to fault. Every staff member we dealt with introduced themselves and spent as much time as we needed.  Continuity of care was second to none, especially by Traci and Andrew.  During the funeral we were gently guided as to what to do and never rushed.  The Celebrant, Helen, visited us at home and created with us a memorable and apt service for my Dad.  After the day we were offered the opportunity to undertake counselling at no further charge and sent a wild flower seed heart to plant in the garden….lovely and appreciated gestures from a wonderful team.  

  • 5 Christine Pearce 11th Apr 2024

    Your outstanding service & personal support has provided both a perfect ending & peaceful beginning for both of us.
