From start to finish Denise was absolutely amazing. So kind and supportive and always have me a big hug-which was so lovely!  I met Shayne on the day. He was really kind and respectful.  I can’t fault them at all. They’ve made what has been a really difficult time a little bit easier. Thank you to both Denise and Shayne.

  • 5 Kerry Norton 18th Feb 2024

    Hello. From the first phone call I made to Denise Edwards at Cannerby Lane branch of Shayne Stork family funeral services, I knew we had the right people for our Mumma's funeral. Absolute compassion and respect is what we received. The care for mum and us was impeccable. We were offered a celebrant called Jeff who was amazing. We sent in music and photos of mum which Denise arranged for the funeral. On the day of the funeral, Shayne, Denise and their fantastic pall bearers took great care and respect of mum. Wonderful service. Thank you all so very much.

    SHAYNE STORK replied

  • 5 Paul Garrett 18th Sep 2023

    Shayne was brilliant. From our initial meeting to plan Lesley's funeral, he listened and guided my family through the process. Nothing was too much trouble and he helped us put a wonderful order of service and photo tribute together and was a great support on the day. Shayne and his team contributed to a beautiful send off for Lesley. We as a family are so grateful. Thank you.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Paul Thank you for your kind words glad we were able to give Lesley the funeral that you and the family wanted for her it was our pleasure to take care of things for you and John.
  • 5 Perry Emms 18th Sep 2023

    From when Toni made the appointment to start to organise her funeral we were greeted with the most caring and professionalism. Shayne was also so accommodating with someone so young organising their own funeral giving advice and listening to all requirements. Even to the point of walking infront of the hearse carrying a glass of chardonnay and blocking traffic on Waterloo Road.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Perry glad we were able to carry out Toni's wishes it was our pleasure to look after her and you and the family, Thank you so much for your kind words on such a difficult time for you.
  • 5 Joanne Keeble 17th Sep 2023

    Shayne & his team are exceptional.  My late mother had a funeral plan with Shayne which was very helpful but all her wishes on her plan were put into action by Shayne.  Himself and his team were caring, helpful and treated my late mother with the utmost dignity and respect as well as ourselves, her grieving family.  He guided us through everything and no request was too much trouble.  Shayne, we can’t thank you or your team enough.  Take pride knowing that you are all exceptional at what you do.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Joanne, thank you so much for such kind words, we look after every family like they are our own and this was so close to us as we knew mum so well. It was such a privilege to look after her on her final journey.  All the best to you and all the family Shayne 
  • 5 Julia Dossor 12th Sep 2023

    I found Shayne Stork Family Funeral Services excellent. Shayne put us very much at ease when planning the service for our friend and accepted any changes or additions we made to our wishes without any problem. On the day everything went perfectly and just as we hoped. 

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Julia, thank you very much for taking the time to leave such kind words. It means so much to us all. All the best Shayne 
  • 5 Christine Anderson 8th Sep 2023

  • 5 pam pearson 3rd Sep 2023

    Sadly this is the third time I have had to use Shayne in 21 months. Compassionate and personalised care is given. Nothing is too much trouble and I felt totally cared for at this incredibly sad time. Can highly recommend their services.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Pam, thank you for taking the time to leave a review of our services to you, thank you for entrusting me again to look after the funeral arrangements for you, hopefully we won’t have any dealings in the near future, but if required  I am here for you as always. All the best Shayne
