All the Staff at Murrays gave excellent guidance and service to myself and my brother during Fathers funeral period, It was 1st class and we would have no problem in highly recommending them.

    Re funerals of Doug and Sean Stokes 14/8/19

    We spoke to several funeral directors and by far Murrays were the best. They were patient, understanding, professional and kind, guiding us through the process.

    Following my fathers passing my brother also passed unexpectedly. Murrays acted quickly and hard to honor family's request of a joint funeral. We will always be grateful that this was made possible.

    The joint funeral went better than we hoped with Murrays support; they added personal touches wherever possible and ensured we as a family felt supported and confident in arrangements.

    There support has continued even after the funerals.

    We are unable to express how much we appreciated Murrays kind and caring support and highly reccomend them to others.

    Thank you again

    Janet and Louise Stokes

  • 5 James Simnett 22nd Aug 2019

    Murray’s provided a professional service throughout every stage of planning and completing mother’s cremation and the scattering of her ashes.  They helped us to tailor the funeral to reflect and celebrate mother’s life and individual character and ensured that all went smoothly.  We had used their services some fifteen years ago for my father’s funeral and were pleased to find that their high standards of service are being maintained.
