    I can highly recommend Shayne Stork Funeral Services. From the first meeting to my Mum's Service everyone we came into contact with was kind, thoughtful and sensitive. Denise, our main point of contact, provided us with all the support we could have asked for. She helped guide us through each step, removing any stress we were feeling with her gentle and supportive approach.

  • 5 Andrea Hubbard 9th Mar 2025

    Shayne Stork Funeral Services recently arranged my husband's funeral & we can highly recommend them. From the start nothing was too much trouble.  Their care, compassion & professionalism made an incredibly day much easier to get through.

    Denise was so lovely & friendly which put us at ease, so that we could make the necessary decisions. She guided us through the process, making sure at all times our wishes were met. She made all of the arrangements for us. Her attention to detail could not be faulted.  At no time was there any pressure put on us to sort things out quickly. 

    On the day of the funeral apart for the very wet weather, which Shayne & his team coped with admirably, we were more than happy how smoothly things went. Thank you Shayne for making a sad day as stress free as possible.

    We are very grateful to you all for caring for me, my family & my late husband.  We could not have chosen anyone better & wish to thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Andrea, Thank you for your lovely review. It was our honour to look after Morgan and to help you and your family.

They helped alleviate so much stress and allowed us to focus on honouring my dad’s memory. The entire process was handled with grace, and we deeply appreciate the comfort they provided.

    Shayne done an absolutely amazing job, I would highly recommend. He listened to our needs and unlike other funeral directors never tried to make us pay for extra services that weren’t needed/wanted. My family are very grateful for everything, and they definitely made things run smoothly throughout.

    Have known shayne many years now, which is why I choose to use his services. Right from the start Denise made the first initial phone call caring and understanding, and from then onwards was supportive to all the family. Shayne was was amazing and managed to source two flags for my dads coffin within hours and looked after my dad so gently and caring right down to the day of the funeral he was there paging my dads hearse and offering his support. I totally recommend Shayne stork funeral services . For there commpasiom kindness. Thank you to everyone that helped the passing of my dad and the hard times after go a little easier for me.

  • 5 John Andrew Russell 28th Jan 2025

    Shayne Stork conducted the funeral of my Son Steven, who died in Thailand.
    It was not just the funeral that Shayne and his team had to conduct, it was receiving the coffin from Heathrow Airport, that arrived from Bangkok, waiting at the Customs Office at Heathrow and bringing Steven home to Norwich.
    The whole operation, had to be handled with special care and professionalism.
    When something tragic happened like this, we appreciated the service the Shayne Stork company provided.
    Our son had so many friends throughout the world and Shayne arranged an online live video, to be viewed by those who were unable to attend.
    At a time when a family is at a loss about what to do, it is reassuring to know that Shayne, Denise and Oliver are there for you.
    Pam & John Russell

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear John, Thank you for a lovely review you also worked hard to get your son back home and it was a nice service with so many of his friends attending.
