T J Parry supported us through all the arrangements for our Dads funeral. They had all the information that Dad had chosen for our mums funeral 2 years previously and we were able to arrange a service for Dad that we know he would have been happy with. Tim gently reminds you of decisions that you need to make which was great as it seemed so overwhelming at times. Tim also recommended Steve as our celebrant and this was also a fantastic recommendation. Tim guides you through the day and honestly I am not sure we would have had everything in place if it wasn't for Tim and his staff. Its already a difficult time but Tim and the whole of his team at Parrys make it much less stressful. Thank you.

Diane Green 22nd Dec 2023

Tim has been very efficient caring and professional. He ensured the family were well informed throughout this distressing time for us all. He is accepting of all our thoughts and feelings, some very sad others with a giggle. I would be more than happy to recommend his services to anyone who needs a friendly, efficiently professional body at a very emotional time.

    Tim and his team have taken care of my beautiful husband until he was laid to rest on Thursday 14th December. 
    We could not of asked for anything more from them… they’ve been nothing but caring and helpful.
    They helped us give Colin the special day he really deserved… and we will be forever grateful.
    I chose for Colin to be taken to his final resting place by horse drawn carriage… and WOW. Whose horses were just incredible… Tim said he wouldn’t use anyone else as they give nothing but the best care to their horses. Well I could see that… they were magnificent..! So I also thank them and their team for making his final journey in this world so special 💕

  • 5 Sarah Earley 3rd Nov 2023

    We had no plans in place when our mum passed away, we made one call and Tim answered and was absolutely amazing from that moment.When they came out to collect our mum he was so kind and gentle in the way he spoke to us as a family, we was given as much time as we needed with mum before she left the family home, when we went back in our mums bed was made and left with a flower on her bed, this made things much easier as a family to see.The last four weeks of mum being with TJparry, she was treated with so much dignity and respect as so we’re we as a family, nothing was to much trouble at all. And as for the funeral, it was absolutely perfect in every way possible. We don’t have enough words to say how happy and thankful we are to Tim for the most perfect day, you did our mum proud so thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

  • 5 Jane Smith 3rd Nov 2023

  • 5 Katy Norris 14th Oct 2023

    We can't thank Tim and his wonderful team enough. From the very first time we nervously walked in to meet them we were made to feel so at ease and comfortable. Organising our father's funeral was not something we were prepared for but with Tim's help and expertise we gave him a wonderful send off that he would have been extremely proud of. Thankyou all for looking after our dad as he was one of your own and making the whole experience so much easier for us all.
