Joanne Ward 3rd Sep 2022

Couldn't have asked for a better send off, all that we asked for was done with thought, care, dignity & precision..Tim & his supporting staff went above & beyond to take care of everything including Mum & myself aswell as my Dad who'd passed. Excellent service from everyone we dealt with. Thankyou for taking away a lot of the stresses at a heartbreaking time.

Glen O'Carroll 30th Aug 2022

Tim and his colleagues were fantastic. From start to finish, they looked after my dad with care and dignity. They looked after us as a family after my dad's passing. Nothing was too much trouble. Val, the celebrant, was fantastic. She was understanding, calm and lovely. We would have no hesitations in recommending TJ Parry and family to anyone.

  • 5 Nicky Luke 4th Aug 2022

    An exceptional and professional service.

    Dad was a retired firefighter and a fitting tribute to his years of service to the community was arranged and co-ordinated by Tim and his team and we could not have wished for a better send off for our dad. The memorial cards given after the service for members of the family to cherish is a lovely gesture and demonstrates the thought and care that are provided to the bereaved when they lose a loved one. Many thanks for the attention to detail and the wonderful service that was given to us all in our time of grief.

    Thank you Nicky, its been our honour.

    Can’t praise TJ Parry enough.  The service they gave us was excellent from the moment they took mum into their care right through to looking after us at the crematorium.  I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

  • 5 Helen Chittim 25th Jul 2022

    Well where do I start, from the minute I contacted you about mums passing, I couldn’t have asked for more compassionate, caring & professional team of people! Nothing was too much trouble. Tim, you are outstanding, you are definitely in a job meant for you, so calm, reassuring but also respectful in every way possible. Mums passing was so heartbreaking, but you all made It bearable by making the day perfect in every way, so I/we thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Many comments were made on the day how amazing you all were too xx

  • 5 Joanna Battison 22nd Jul 2022

    Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you have done for us. We wouldn’t have changed a single thing about the funeral it was just perfect and I have little doubt Dad would have been incredibly pleased with his send off.

    You and your team were impeccable in every sense and the organisation that must have gone into the day to ensure everything went smoothly was so gratefully appreciated.

  • 5 Ann Cowlishaw 4th Jul 2022

    Many thanks from us all, Tim for everything you and your team did to make Mum's funeral service go so well.  You are extremely professional, kind and approachable; we felt that we (and Mum) were in safe, capable hands throughout the sad process from your first telephone call to say Mum was safely in your care.  We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to other people going through such a difficult time, made more bearable by your care and attention to detail.
