Rowley & Sons Family Funeral Services

5 Valerie Nimmo 17th Apr 2024

I was so pleased that we were recommended Rowley and Sons to guide our family through the process of preparing for my late husband's funeral. Nothing was too much trouble and we wre always able to contact Elizabeth Rowley if we needed advice or, had to change the date, because of rail strikes. I wanted to thank the family for their
patience in preparing the Order of Service so we were all happy about it. The funeral itself was conducted with dignity and sensitivity and was just what William would have wished. Many thanks from the whole family.

1st class service from all at Rowleys. The care and attention given to my late wife was so comforting for me and all my family which really helped and enabled us to focus on important arrangements we had to make. The funeral was  carried out with military precision where care and consideration was shown to everyone.
Thank you so much.
Colin & family

The Rowley family couldn't have been anymore understanding or flexibile surrounding the arrangements and viewings on the run up to my dads' funeral.

On the day, we thought the leading of the hearse on foot when leaving the church and entering the cemetery – and also the flags linking our cars to my dads’, were lovely gestures.

A service you never want to need again(!), but if and when the time comes, I wouldn't hesitate to get back in touch with Rowley & Sons

5 Richard Warburton 17th Aug 2023

Very understanding at a difficult time, helpful but in no way pushy, the costs are totally transparent and anything you or the deseased wants is not a problem, they were happy to sort out our unusual flowers and discussed everything we needed to know in plain English. My sister had the opportunity to visit our mum in the chapel of rest 3 times and it was never a problem. When a loved one dies, it's so reassuring to know caring people like this are there to help, yes I know it's a business, but calm, caring helpfulness is what anyone could hope for, and is delivered her in spades.

From the moment we contacted Rowley & Sons they were friendly and professional. They listened to our wishes and were very helpful to assist us in these wishes. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a funeral director after the loss of a loved one.

Rowley and Sons were kind, caring and extremely professional and did everything in their power to make it as positive an experience as it could be. Their communication was clear and accurate and they ensured I was well looked after every step of the way. Thoroughly recommend

Many thanks, i did send a note to your office thanking you all.

5 Hether Mapplebeck 26th Mar 2023

I can say, I have nothing but praise for the whole Rowley Team, who gently and kindly walked our family through a very bewildering situation.



Whilst being very professional throughout, their care went beyond the call of duty. They thought of every detail and guided us the whole way, nothing was too much trouble. I would have no hesitation in recommending them, in guiding, and caring for you and your family, in what can be very traumatic circumstances.

Everyone at Rowleys was so kind, helpful and supportive.
Their efficiency was particularly appreciated as we had to organise my aunt's funeral in quite a short period of time but nothing was too much trouble for them! Thank you!
