JF Knight Funeral Directors were the most compassionate and professional people to deal with from start to finish. They listened to us, worked with us and carried out all our wishes with respect and dignity. They went above and beyond to ensure Catherine's wishes were taken care of. We were more than assured as a family that she had been well looked after by them and with dignity. Communication with us was extremely good and all questions were dealt with promptly and with compassion. Nothing was too much trouble, including a visit to the chapel of rest over a weekend. The actual day of the funeral went extremely seamlessly which is what one needs on the most emotional and difficult day. The streaming links arranged by them worked perfectly and the service was viewed by our family and friends worldwide. Special mention for Jamie, Shirlee and Kevin. They were the three I had most dealings with but am sure the whole team are equally good and caring. It is a family run venture and not a business. I would recommend them without hesitation.

JF Knight funeral directors were the most compassionate & professional people to deal with from start to finish. They were recommended to me & I am so glad I used them. They listened to & carried out all our wishes perfectly & with respect & dignity. They were there for every concern & worry I had & nothing was too much trouble. On the day of the funeral they anticipated absolutely every need with professionalism & calm and made the occasion extremely seamless & stress free which was just what myself & my family needed. Everyone I had dealings with at the company put my mind at ease & were there for every detail & both Jamie, & Kevin in particular was the kindest & most compassionate person giving assurance & support every step of the way. A heartfelt thankyou for your amazing support on such a difficult & emotional day. I would recommend them without hesitation.

Jamie and team were very sensitive, caring and patient with our family at a very difficult time. They came highly recommended from a family friend, and I would be happy to do the same. Thank you Jamie, Shirlee, Cameron and Kevin for all your support ❤️🤍💙 xx
