I have had the need to use John and his company on more than one occasion and would never go anywhere else. A fantastic service provided in a professional manner.

    I cannot praise Michael highly enough. He and his team went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for our wonderful Mum. The care and sympathy we received was so touching and I would say I would never ask anyone else to take care of our loved ones when the time comes. Thank you so much for our Mums beautiful send off from Karen and all the Lawton family

    Michael from WE Pinders made what was a really difficult time easy. Nothing was too much trouble. The service was impeccable. Thank you Michael. 

  • 5 Geoffrey Barker 11th Sep 2022

    Funerals are extremely emotional and stressful, you worry about this, that and the other, they detract you from grieving for your loved one, hinder you emotionally supporting your family and seeking comfort from them.
    W E Pinder and son are a well known independent funeral director in South Yorkshire, their reputation is second to non, my wonderful father had the common sense to take out afun

  • 5 Jackie Dudley 9th Sep 2022

    From the first contact with WE Pinder Funeral Services, John Pinder handled everything with such kindness and thought, it made the saddest time in my life easier to bare.
    His professionalism and expertise, made my husband's funeral a day of celebration filled with love and memories.
    Nothing is too much trouble, and his support for me helped to get me through the lead up to, and the day itself.
    Thank you John Pinder,and your team,
    For everything you do.

  • 5 Ann Ballarini 3rd Sep 2022

    Although we knew that my husband had a terminal condition we didn't really discuss the funeral.  As we are not religious it felt daunting planning how we as a family could celebrate my husband’s life.  However John Pinder and all the staff we had contact with made everything relaxed and easy.
    John was very professional but friendly and kind giving us all the options possible. Nothing was too much trouble.
    The event itself was truly uplifting and definitely a celebration.
    I will recommend the services of John Pinder to anyone that asks and many attending said what a good event it was.

  • 5 Patricia Fry 27th Aug 2022

    Fantastic service thank you

  • 5 Gandy Karen 15th Aug 2022

    I was very impressed as to how Chris dealt with my mums funeral. Very professional but he also had a lovely manner and made everything flow with ease. He was very helpful

  • 5 Belinda Anstey 30th Jul 2022

    Michael is a credit to his profession. Polite courteous and a genuinely nice person. It was a pleasure to meet him and by the time of the funeral he felt like a member of the family.

  • 5 Judith Miller 5th Jul 2022

    I was very impressed with the service WE Pinder provided from the day they collected my husband from the house to our parting at the hotel. At every stage they all took the trouble to do everything the way I wanted. I was very pleased that the funeral was the celebration of his life that I had planned and it would not have been so successful without John Pinder's professional expertise, knowledge of the options available, and invaluable advice.

  • 5 Lesley Grannon 19th Jun 2022

    WE Pinders we’re truly amazing. They supported my brother and I every step of the journey for our father’s funeral.  From our first call to them, Michael (our key contact there) guided us through the entire process.  They liaised with the hospital where dad died, took him into their care,  helped us with all the practical decisions about the funeral arrangements, organised the service details at the crematorium and coordinated with the team catering for the wake.  They.were there for us every step of the way.  The whole team always acted with care and understanding.  I can highly recommend them to anyone who has suffered a bereavement and needs a compassionate and professional team to take care of funeral arrangements. Six stars.

  • 5 Sean Hawkins 11th Jun 2022

    Very professionally run family business, helped every step of the way through this very tough time, I can’t recommend W E Pinder enough, they are exceptional. 

  • 5 Lesley Lettice 31st May 2022

    From start to finish was absolutely spot on, nothing was any trouble, I was made to feel part of the family, I was informed of everything that was happening.
    There are not enough words to say thank you, you did an amazing job, and my dad would have loved his send off.
    Once again I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

  • 5 Sally Sterland 20th May 2022

    The service we received was so personal and supportive from start to finish. We had no idea where to begin but the visit from John was swift and very comprehensive, well beyond what you would expect from a funeral director. John made it so we had to think about very little and took care of all arrangements for us, giving full advice and guidance documents on the things he couldn't do for us to make it as easy as possible. We felt our dearly departed family member was treat with respect and as an individual again, unlike our experience at the hospital. We're now looking at arrangements for a stone with pinders, again receiving a personal and respectful visit from John. Its not a service we like to think we'll need but when you do I highly recommend Pinders.

  • 5 Robert Bell 19th May 2022

    Professional service throughout, cannot thank you enough, at these stressful times WE Pinder take care of everything you need, thank you

  • 5 David Graham 10th May 2022

    John and his team have been absolutely wonderful for us.  By giving clear and thoughtful advice, he helped me fully understand the requirements and totally put me at ease in an obviously stressful situation.  I have nothing but praise and thanks for John and will not hesitate to recommend them in the future. 

  • 5 Pamela Carr 30th Apr 2022

    Pinders recommendations and advice was invaluable. We couldn't thank them enough for all the care, consideration and repect shown to our mother and ourselves. People commented it was the best funeral they'd ever been to. You can't have better recommendation than that.

  • 5 Andrea Featherstone 16th Apr 2022

    Such a professional, personal service with attention to detail. Would highly recommend.

  • 5 Aimee Mennie 9th Apr 2022

    Thankyou very much for everything you did for my mums funeral. You made her look amazing and so peaceful and everything was brilliant. 

  • 5 Gary Hamilton 28th Mar 2022


    John and his staff helped to guide us through one of the most difficult times in our lives, the passing of our Son Daniel.
    Daniel was cared for with all the Care, Dignity and Respect that we wanted for our son.
    With John’s guidance we were able to give Daniel the send-off that we know he would have liked.
    Thank You.

  • 5 Sharon Concannon 22nd Mar 2022

    I can’t recommend John at Pinders highly enough. To say the service was amazing would be an understatement. Thank you.

  • 5 Sarah Cardwell 15th Mar 2022

    An extremely empathetic, professional and efficient service throughout. Michael gave his care, time, understanding and reassurance at all times. I would have no hesitation recommending WE Pinder.
