Richard Morton 13th Jul 2021

Warren dealt with most of my Dad's funeral and was very professional and yet approachable from start to finish, everything went as smooth as it could and we were given some very good advice on how to go about things and what to do in order. I can't thank you enough for helping make my Dad's final send off a great one.

    Cannot thank Warren & his team at Parkinson’s enough, the care & compassion shown to me & my family organising my husband Steve’s funeral especially in these difficult times was first class. From the first phone call to the last, all the calls in between & the funeral day itself, nothing was ever too much trouble. They offer a friendly, professional & more importantly a caring local family run business who do not over charge. I highly recommend them.

    Warren and the team at Parkinsons were phenomenal at every turn. From my first phone call to their offices, to collecting my dad's ashes, our family were treated with respect and good humour throughout our most difficult time. The celebrant arranged by Parkinsons was fabulous and we couldn't have asked for a smoother, more beautiful service. I cannot fully express the level of gratitude our family feel towards the entire team at Parkinsons and we will never forget the kindness we were afforded by them.
