Ron & the whole team made a very very stressful time, calmer & easier. Their compassion & care was second to none. When I felt lost & bewildered, they helped me find a way through it with unhurried meetings,lots of tea & a belief that all would be well. I cannot put into words the gratitude I feel for the care shown to my lovely dad.

  • 5 Jessica Hopson 21st Feb 2022

    Words cannot express how wonderful these people are. Losing my 30 year old son I was adrift in grief.
    These wonderful people walked through it bit by bit even offering counselling.
    I will plan my funeral with them now and so will my husband.
    Nothing was too much trouble and every detail was taken care of.

  • 5 Ian Reed 3rd Feb 2022

  • 5 Sue Luke 31st Jan 2022

    From start to finish the service given by the Coop Funeral care in Penistone and Barnsley was faultless. I was treated with sympathy and respect throughout. It’s such a daunting task arranging a funeral but my every worry was taken away and dealt with and that overwhelming feeling  of loss was replaced by a calmness I never thought I would have. This was entirely due to the professionalism of the staff. In particular Candice and my amazing Funeral Director Holly. Thank you so much you made everything perfect

  • 5 June Lee-Wood 31st Jan 2022

    We couldn't fault the service in any way. The whole family felt that not only was John treated with the care and respect he deserved, but the support given to us helped us through a very difficult day. Our Funeral Director, Ron, was outstanding in his care and compassion and was always there to help us in any way he could, sparing no effort in following our wishes.

  • 5 Stephen Rodgers 31st Jan 2022

    Didn't have to worry about anything and all went smoothly.

  • 5 William Wilkinson 17th Jan 2022

    Discussion of our arrangements was conducted in a most friendly and helpful manner. Everything was carried out most efficiently and courteously.

  • 5 Malcolm Middleton 17th Jan 2022

    If there is such a category this service was "better than just excellent". From my first call that my wife had died at home and needed to be transferred to their care, the response has always been impeccable, swift and "never too much trouble".
    In particular "Holly" our "Funeral Director" was superb, guiding me through what was a novel situation and supporting me emotionally through this saddest of times with utmost empathy. The rest of the "team" have all been so helpful with every little issue. I would unhesitatingly recommend anyone to use "The Coop" when they have to make such arrangements.

    The staff at the Huddersfield Road branch of the co-op funeral care are very pleasant,caring and very helpful in giving advice and carrying out the requests of the bereaved persons representative.
