    I cannot praise Parry’s enough for how they dealt with the funeral of my brother. From our initial first visit, to the funeral itself, I felt so comfortable and comforted. They are not only very professional and efficient but compassionate and thoughtful. Every little consideration was given,
    with extra touches that were unexpected and touching. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Parry’s.

  • 5 Sallyjo Caddy 4th Feb 2022

    From the first contact I made with Tim Parry to the last handshake goodbye I felt we were in the hands of true professionals. When Tim and Gary came in the middle of the night to take our beloved mum, Dolores, into their safe hands, they arrived dressed immaculately and brought an incredible compassion and dignity to that difficult moment. I had an immediate sense of peace that we had made an excellent choice. From that moment, through the whole process of arranging mum's funeral, Tim and his team made us feel that nothing was too much trouble. We were treated with thoughfulness and care and given the space and time we needed to make all the decisions involved. It was Tim who came walking down our road in front of mum's coffin and Gary who drove us in their beautiful limousine behind it. This is a small family team with high standards of ceremony and tradition. In every aspect of our dealings with them, I felt a constant sense of genuine calm and respect. Tim and his team bring an exceptional level of compassion and professionalism to the work that they do. I cannot recommend them enough. A huge, hearfelt thank you Tim, to you and everyone involved.

    T J Parry Funeral Directors replied
    Thank you SallyJo, this really means a lot.

    From my first conversation with Tim I knew that I was placing my mother in the care of the right person. From start to finish,Tim and his team were sensitive to our needs, always compassionate, emphatic and respectful. Tim guided us through every step and helped us make decisions at a time when we were overwhelmed and confused. My family and I will be forever grateful that you helped us give our mother the send off she deserved. Tim's attention to detail exceeded every expectation. Thank you does not seem to encompass my family's gratitude but....thank you!

    I can not thank Tim and his team enough for the support he gave us after my aunt's death. Sadly, this is the second funeral Tim has arranged for us this year. I felt very reassured knowing everything would be taken care of professionally and with such sensitivity. Tim is very kind and compassionate and nothing was too much trouble. The funeral went smoothly and Steve, the celebrant, did another excellent job. I would definitely recommend Tim and his team to everyone. Thank you again for all your help during this very difficult time.
