5 Vida Townson 15th Jul 2024

The thoughts of having to organise my late husband's funeral was daunting, I felt that I did not have the strength or ability to begin, what I thought to be a long emotional haul.

All my fears were proved to be unfounded after my daughter contacted J & G Fielder.

Jon Kirkman, took hold of the reins, allowing my daughter and I the space to deal with our loss.

Jon, made the decision making, so easy, as he guided us through the format to be followed.

He came to my home, talked to us, expertly and with empathy for the situation we were in. The way in which he talked to us, did not make me feel that I was having to make decisions. He is an expert in his craft of being a Funeral Director.

The funeral itself was so much more relaxed thanks to Jon's influence and presence. Every aspect and stage of the funeral was conducted in a professional, efficient, respectful manner with utmost care and consideration shown to my daughter and I.

I will be forever grateful to Jon and his team, who worked hard to make sure that all and everything that they did was for the benefit of all concerned.

Thank you, to the team at J.G. Fielder, thank you especially, to Jon Kirkman, a very special caring man.

We have used Fielders on a few occasions,we have always been very satisfied. My mother's recent funeral was exceptional, the care shown to Mum and all my family, by Jon Kirkman and the team was amazing. They are extremely professional, knowledgeable and above all else, compassionate and caring. They really understand how difficult it is when one loses a loved one. Nothing was too much trouble and paid attention to the smallest of details.
Thank you Jon and your team, for such efficiency and care.

Couldn't have gone any better

5 Anne Steadman 29th Apr 2024

Jon Kirkman is kind, patient and professional. He embodies all the attributes  needed of someone making arrangements at a time which is upsetting and distressing. Jon made sure that we were happy with arrangements at every stage, answered all questions promptly and made us feel that he really cared about us and our Mum. On the day of the funeral, one of  the pall bearers was
unavoidable delayed; Jon stepped in and replaced him so that our desire that Mum be carried in and not wheeled in could be satisfied. This meant a great deal to us and was another very clear illustration of Jon doing everything to make a loved one’s funeral as special and seamless as possible. 
I cannot recommend Jon and Fielders highly enough:  the initial meeting at our home; the correspondence about and editing of the order of service; the care taken with Mum and the kindness shown when I visited her in the Chapel of Rest; the attention to detail throughout; the respect shown to us all throughout and particularly on the day itself; and the way he took charge of the  invoices  for the flowers and the reception, adding them to the Fielders’ invoice  for a one-off payment from the bank; all of this was service of the highest quality arranged by someone deeply committed to ensuring families feel well supported and cared for at such a challenging time. Thank you.
