Kath Starkey 17th Feb 2022

Hayley and her team were wonderful and kind in supporting the family through the whole process. Never rushing us for a decision and answering all our questions no matter how daft they were. She was a great comfort to us and helped us through John's sudden passing. Her care and personal attention to the deceased and family should be applauded. We would highly recommend her services to anyone.

  • 5 Stephen Lambert 26th Jan 2022

    From the first phone call to the collection of Brenda's ashes the service received was better than five star, totally professional and could not be faulted in any way. Thanks to all concerned for making what was a very hard time for me and my family to endure, you made it much easier than I thought it would be.

  • 5 Amanda Wood 25th Jan 2022

    In what is a difficult time for families, I found all staff at Hayley Owen Funeral Directors, sympathetic and understanding. They were highly competent and made sure everything was taken care of. I liked the fact they did everything for me after the initial meeting. There is enough to do when dealing with a relatives death and they made it a lot easier for me.

  • 5 Mark Jackson 12th Jan 2022

    Hayley makes you feel very comfortable when discussing funeral arrangements and there is no pressure on making decisions , having used Hayley’s services for two funerals now we and other family members have commented on how  much more friendly and down to earth her  approach is compared to other funeral directors we have used in the past , visiting your family member is also a much nicer experience with everyone who visited commenting on how home like it feels making you much more comfortable and at ease when visiting.

  • 5 Melanie Smith 12th Jan 2022

    Hayley and her team gave excellent service. They were kind, efficient and professional. The help and care were just what was needed. Thank you.

  • 5 Juliet Le-page 12th Jan 2022

    It's a very difficult time when a much loved person has died - lots of things you have to think about not just the organisation of a funeral. Hayley and her colleagues could not have been better at understanding all this. They were so supportive and helpful and made this part of the sadness of losing our mother so much more bearable.
    Not only full of knowledge but advice, suggestions and Hayley has a great team of contacts such as the coffin company, the horses and carriage used, Poppy the catering firm and Andrew Dishman the film maker. And the flower people - beautiful spray wreath for her coffin and gorgeous yellow roses for the burial.
    Nothing was too much for her.
    Thank you so much for making the day such a wonderful celebration of our mother's life.

  • 5 Ann Marie Church 12th Jan 2022

    Choosing a funeral directors was a difficult decision for us as a family and with a limited budget we didn't want to make any mistakes, however after contacting a few other companies we choose Hayley Owen and what a perfect decision that turned out to be. From the initial consultation and ceremony itself everything was handled with such perfection and respect, their staff are well-dressed courteous, sympathetic and knowledgeable, nothing was a problem everything went like clockwork and our family and friends commented on a wonderful send off and ceremony.
