  • 5 Amanda O'Brien 24th Nov 2021

    Claire and all the staff were amazing in guiding us through it all step by step and making a tough time less stressful 
    My grandfather was given the best send off he could have
    Unfortunately we needed them again only 3 months after the passing of my grandfather for my Nan so it was personal for them as they had met her and spent time with her
    Again she was given the upmost care and the vibrant flowers we asked for were amazing 
    Steve was fantastic as a celebrant and you really felt like he got their personalities down to a tee
    Can’t thank you all enough for everything you done 
    And would have no trouble recommending them

    Where do we start I cannot thank Jennifer Ashe and sons for the outstanding service we received from the team after the sad death of our father George on June 6th. The care they have shown the family goes above and beyond anything we could of expected, absolutely amazing first class and we can't thank them enough. Would highly recommend anyone to use their services and we will definitely be a family that does for sure.
    Thank You all very much Kim Bradbury and Lyn Porter and all the family x

  • 5 Kathy Rollinson 9th Jul 2021

    My dealings with Jennifer Ashe over my mother's recent funeral were efficient, caring, helpful and respectful at all times. Joe Evan's was particularly patient and calm. Costs were upfront and explained in detail. Any changes were dealt with without problems. The celebrant chosen was Sara Jinks who again was efficient and calm. A funeral is such a personal and emotional time. Jennifer Ashe and sons dealt with it in a manner that was just right, I would have no problems in recommending them or using them again should the need arise.

  • 5 Linda Whitehouse 6th Jun 2021

    The service this company gave was beyond excellent. From our very first meeting to the actual funeral they gave outstanding s

  • 5 Susan Shedden 8th May 2021

    The funeral service was excellent.
    All the staff at Jennifer Ashe were sensitive, understanding, compassionate and their attention to detail was truly remarkable, from my first visit right through the whole process.
    Thank you.

  • 5 Shirley Dean 27th Apr 2021

    The passing of my partner "Bid" was totally unexpected and this was the first time I have had to organise a funeral.

    Claire at the Hednesford branch was totally professional and had a very caring nature on the lead up to Bid's funeral.
    On the day of the funeral the hearse went via Finning so friends and colleagues could pay their respects to Bid. Richard the funeral director held my hand walking in front of the hearse, I couldn't have done that without you. Thank you. Martyn Jinks who spoke about Bid at the crematorium was fabulous. So much so, attendees of the service were asking me if Martyn knew Bid personally. I would highly recommend using Jennifer Ashe and Son's services.

  • 5 George Barron 27th Apr 2021

    I would just like to say that Clare at Hednesford branch made a difficult job much easier for us when dealing with mums funeral.  
    She was very informative and guided us through a task that i had never had to deal with before.  She dealt with my request for mums flowers to be spring posies rather than the usual wreath type arrangement, they were commented on by everyone so thanks to Claudine Florists for those.
    I would like to thank Luke, who looked after us on the day, he rang on the morning to make sure where we wanted the flowers to be placed, he introduced himself at the crematorium and made us feel so secure in that we knew exactly what to do, and continued this after the service was at an end and we were  back outside.
    All in all,  a difficult day was made bearable by these wonderful people, Thank you all so much. 
    Julie & George Barron

  • 5 Janette Bristow 13th Apr 2021

    We would just like to thankyou all for helping us to give Ken a great send off.
    Everyone has been so helpful and kind at this sad time.
    Everyone who attended said how lovely the service and celebrant Tracy Jones was, whom you recommended.
    The overall service was excellent.

  • 5 Caroline Harper 13th Apr 2021

    I cannot praise the funeral directors enough. I have had the misfortune of having to use them twice in as many months. 

    They are very kind, caring, and professional from the time they have to take your loved one into their care. 

    They give you 100%, support always. Above and beyond expectation.
    Simply the best.

  • 5 Amanda Higginson 15th Mar 2021

    We have just recently used Jennifer Ashe and Son and I'm so thankful we went with them. From start to finish, I cannot fault them. Claire was fantastic all the way through, so kind and caring, there wasn't anything too much for them. Luke, the funeral director on the day was also fantastic, he really helped us make the day go as smoothly as it did. The whole process was made that little bit easier and that was down to these guys. Thank you for being so respectful and caring both towards my Grandad in your care and to my family saying goodbye.

  • 5 Lynn Beeston 27th Feb 2021

    Very friendly sympathetic and professional service.  I liked that they displayed their prices upfront and there were no hidden extras.  Would definitely recommend them to anybody and Clare at Hednesford is an asset to the company. Thank you all for making an emotional process so much easier to deal with.
