They were very kind, patient and helped guide us through a very difficult time with our lose.  I would certainly recommend them to others in their time of need. 

Josie Adams 11th Feb 2019

At the most painful of times, Murray's were both sensitive, supportive and responsive to our wishes. They were highly communicative and made the experience completely personal. They couldn't be faulted.

Linda Sharp 2nd Feb 2019

I would just like to thank Murray’s for the kind, caring and efficient way they organised my mothers funeral.   As a family we were allowed to grieve knowing that Murray’s were taking care of everything else.

    From the very first moment I contacted Murrays, the funeral arrangements for my beloved partner of the last 14years were dealt with extremely professionally and with empathy. I cannot speak highly enough of the team, nothing was too much trouble and arrangements went smoothly on the day without a hitch. Thanks to Barry and all staff involved.

    My family has used Murray's for all of our family funerals since 1998; we cannot fault their service. They are very professional, kind and caring during difficult times.

    All members of the team helped me and my family feel at ease, and comfort was knowing our chosen choice of funeral directors would assist with helping we sadly passed loved ones on their final journey.

    Words cannot express how grateful I am to this fantastic service, and I would highly recommend them to all friends and family!

    The care, compassion and professionalism we received were excellent. Danny was wonderful. Nothing was too much for him and he dealt with everything sensitively and thoughtfully. He is a credit to this company and to the profession generally. I think mum would have been pleased with and proud of how the day went. Thank you Danny and Murray's for all you did.

    A compassionate, thoughtful, attentive and caring service from the first phone call through to the funeral service itself.
    Everything was explained at each stage of the process, and on the day itself nothing was left to chance and it flowed seamlessly.
    Thank you for all your help at this very sad time.

  • 5 Melva Williams 9th Oct 2018

    The whole family was amazed from start to finish in the way in which Murray’s handed our dear mother’s passing.
    We could not have asked for a better service in such an overwhelming time of need.
    Specific time spent for us to achieve the special personal touches we required seemed effortless and unchallenged. All this for us to send our loving mother on her final resting journey.

    Forever grateful to Murray’s funeral directors.

    We have used Murrays on 3 seperate occasions now & each time have found them to be faultless. From the initial contact to after the funeral they are always courteous & respectful. They also go the extra mile with their thoughtful additional extra touches.
