  • 5 Julie Pilgrim 28th Feb 2022

    We were impressed from first meeting Shayne to discuss my Dad's funeral through to the ending of my Dad's funeral.
    Shayne is so lovely to speak to and nothing is too much trouble.
    The funeral was a beautiful service and everything ran just as we wanted and as Shayne had explained.
    Shayne mentioned Greenacres at Colney to us, we would not have considered this option..... But it was such a beautiful place and so, so pleased that we choose Greenacres. Thank you Shayne and the team at Shayne Stork Funeral Service.

    SHAYNE STORK replied
    Dear Elliott, thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review, and for allowing me to look after Dad on his final journey. I’m glad you approved of Colney, it certainly is a beautiful place. All the best to you and the family, Shayne

  • 5 Joanne Redrup 5th Feb 2022

    Words cannot describe how  sensitive, caring and respectful Shayne was, he even went out his way to get something extra special for us. Geoff the celebrant was perfect Shayne knew he would be the right person to conduct my sisters celebration of life. Nothing was too much to ask, without a doubt the best company if you want that personal, kind, and caring touch.

    Thank you to you all that made a very sad day as bearable as possible.

    God bless you all 🙏 

    RIP Nikki Jane Andrews
