Murrays have been fantastic through all the process of sorting out mum's funeral. Danny sat down with us and discussed everything with us and explained what was going to happen. Any questions we had Danny helped us with. We had trouble sorting music but Murrays sorted it out for us with no problem, communication was fantastic.

Murray's were truly fantastic. Their phone manner at initial consultation, at a difficult time, was calm, caring, professional and efficient. At the face-to-face meeting to discuss arrangements we were guided gently through the process and assisted with decisions. At no time did we feel rushed or pressured. The organisation was fabulous and reliable. Thank you Becky. On the funeral day itself Murray's were the ultimate professional organisation and made the day not only run smoothly, but made it a very personal service. Daniel handling the day remarkably - thank you. I have absolutely no reservation in recommending Murray's.

    All the arrangements were handled professionally but with a personal touch and respectfully.
    At the hardest of times you need someone to take the stress away and Murrays did a fantastic job, quick and efficient communication, helpful and caring, organised everything for us.

    Thank you for making the worst of times more bearable.

  • 5 Elwyn Rees-Jones 12th Nov 2019

    We could not wish to be in better hands.  The care and attention we were shown was exemplary. They were at all times both respectful and supportive. Dan who took care of us on the day was sensitive to our needs and he ensured everything ran incredibly smoothly. The care home where my father passed said that they had seldom seen such respect and dignity when they collected my father. I have no hesitation in strongly commending Murrays. They were truly excellent in all respects.
