Jamie and his team always go the extra mile to make a very difficult time as stress free as possible .  I cannot imagine anyone else caring about there job as much as Jamie does and it showed  in every aspect of his care for our mum and our family throughout the process . 

Amanda Oxley 30th May 2025

There are no words to express the gratitude towards Jamie, Shirlee, and their wonderful family at Knight’s for  looking after our loved one and our family. They guided us with care and compassion at such sad time.  Right from the moment we asked Knights to look after our precious loved one, we knew we were in safe hands.  Jamie introduced us to Elle, our wonderful celebrant. Elle celebrated our Dad’s life wonderfully and so eloquently.  Thank you once again. The McCarthy family ❤️

    The choice of J.F Knight Independent Family Funeral Directors to organise our Mum’s funeral after a friend’s personal recommendation was a very good one.
    We felt that our Mum as well as ourselves were looked after in a very professional yet personal way.
    Thank you to Kevin and all the team at J.F Knight for a first class personal service in all respects.
    Every member of staff that we came in to contact with were kind and sensitive to our needs and made the whole experience less daunting than we anticipated.

  • 5 Eddie Bujko 28th May 2025

    All the pressure of arranging a funeral was taken from us which allowed us to concentrate on other issues arising from my Mother's death. From the swift and efficient collection of my Mother's body from the care home and subsequent care to the burial plot,church priest,transport, route and relevant paperwork and advice. As a family, we can only praise the way Knights looked after us and would recommend the service provided as excellent.

  • 5 Vanessa Dickson 28th May 2025

    The level of care and empathy shown during our difficult loss was outstanding. We were given nothing but an excellent service and nothing was too much trouble to be organise. Would not hesitate to use again as we were so looked after as a whole and made to feel reassured throughout the whole process.

Kev picked the perfect celebrant in elle and she said everything perfectly.

  • 5 Tony Bryan 10th Apr 2025

    First class, Excellent and super, really sum up the service we’ve received on two very recent funerals.  Came highly recommended  and delivered in spades.  From the OFF, my mum passed New Year’s Eve at 16:05, as soon as I contacted them they  took control and gently guided me through the whole process, not once was I left wondering “ what do I do” .on every level this was a first class service.  Jamie and his staff were so kind.

    Well done to you all.

  • 5 Rachel Miller 9th Apr 2025

    JFKnight have shown the highest level of professionalism and care that we could ask for. Throughout the process, they have been kind, efficient, considerate and helpful. Whenever we have phoned the office, we have had a caring voice on the phone, and whenever we have emailed, we have had a timely response. All the arrangements were precisely as agreed, and they helped us through all the difficult decision-making. A big thank you particularly to Kevin and of course Jamie. We were so very glad that we found this firm to help us through an awful time.

  • 5 Stacey Trower 9th Apr 2025

    Couldn’t have asked for a more professional service. The way they spoke to us about our dad and the care they showed him will stay with us forever . All the team are really friendly and respectful . Kay Shaw was excellent we can’t thank her enough she was so compassionate and dedicated to making sure everything was how we wanted it . They made the funeral one less thing to worry about. They did everything for us ,gave us options with no pushy sales pitch just information , time and  advise . So many people commented on them after the service they did our dad proud thank you .
