Thanks for the excellent support throughout, the very good celebrant and help with spreading the costs. I know that Patsy would have been happy with the sensitive and professional way that you carried out your duties. It was exactly as she would have wanted this sad and difficult time to be closed. Kind regards Dave Mullenger and Patsy's daughter Melissa Huckvale

  • 5 Malcolm Roberts 21st Sep 2018

    They were caring, and helpful throughout the whole process. I would certainly recommend them to anyone. In this regard my children have already said that you will do my funeral as and when this may be required.

  • 5 Terry Rayson 20th Sep 2018

    Very efficient and highly professional.

  • 5 Jackie Arnold 20th Sep 2018

    Mandy and her colleagues made an unimaginably difficult day pass so smoothly. We were able to create an unique send off for my husband which I know he would have approved off. I can't thank them enough.

  • 5 Isabel Stott 20th Sep 2018

    We felt that Susan and her team worked sensitively with us to arrange two very different family funerals. They communicated well and offered helpful suggestions, never rushing or pushing us, just kindly being there and doing a very professional job in the background, for which we are very grateful.

  • 5 Heidi Smith 27th Jul 2018

    Friendly, professional and personal are a few words I could use to describe Susan Whymark Funeral Services. Nothing was too much hassle and all plans were dealt with in an efficient way keeping us informed at each stage.

  • 5 Lynda Warne 25th Jul 2018

    I cannot say enough to discibe the service myself and my husband received from Susan and her team. Keith was treated with respect and was collected from the hospice the afternoon he died safely in their hands it was the most wonderful beginning of this last journey for me. In every single aspect of the resting of my love was delt with with care and support . Thank you Susan

  • 5 Yvonne Smith 14th Jul 2018

    Wish I could make it 100.
    It was wonderful from start to finish and the support of your staff was second to none. My thanks to you all seem so inadequate.
    Than you so much.

  • 5 Anna Chambers 10th Jul 2018

    Suzanne was lovely . She naturally has a kind , loving but very professional way about her .
    We felt very at ease with her being in control and didn’t have to worry about a thing . 

    Would highly recommend the company 

  • 5 Doug Rush 21st Jun 2018

    Nothing was too much trouble, made a very difficult occasion bearable for our family

  • 5 Sandra Perks 19th Jun 2018

    I could not thank Susan Whymark enough and her staff especially Mandy who assisted all the way with the organisation of my friends funeral, nothing seemed too much trouble whatsoever, I was kept informed and up to date with everything, they are a complete pleasure to deal with even in the hardest and saddest of times. 

  • 5 John Parker 23rd May 2018

    Excellent, highly professional service, which also managed to be deeply personal. Sue Whymark and her team could not have been more helpful. Susan Townsend-Parker died fairly suddenly over the Easter weekend, in the evening at home. Sue Whymark's team collected her, very sympathetically and respectfully, very late at night, with the least possible fuss. She was beautifully dressed when we went to see her before the funeral, and looked as if she was simply having a lovely sleep. Every little personal touch we wanted was attended to, and the more than 200 people who attended the funeral were unanimous in their praise.

  • 5 Margaret Horrocks 10th May 2018

    Very supportive through one of the hardest times of my life. The whole funeral was conducted in dignified and professional manner.

  • 5 Karen Lynch 23rd Apr 2018

    Susan and team were like friends helping you through a difficult time. Always professional, they were guided by our way of doing things and allowed us the freedom to do just that. It was a wonderful day; Mum would have had just one complaint and that is that she wasn't there to join in!

  • 5 Rachel Glover 18th Apr 2018

    A very friendly, professional service, nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you all.

  • 5 Aurora Alonso 17th Apr 2018

    The service was very well organised and efficient. At the same time the funeral directors were very considerate and respectful 

  • 5 Vanessa Leverett 8th Apr 2018

    A thoughtful and calm service, and helped every step of the way. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

  • 5 Damian Harrold 8th Mar 2018

  • 5 Paul Denham 8th Mar 2018

    A prompt and understanding service. Susan and her team were there for us when we needed them and guided us through a difficult time it's the utmost professionalism and sympathy. It might seem a bit odd to recommend a funeral director to someone ..... but I do!

  • 5 Graham Mathias 27th Feb 2018

    From initial contact with Susan Whymark Funeral Services Ltd right through to the funeral itself we, as a family, were afforded the highest standard of professional services.

    That service was framed in an understanding of the difficult emotional circumstances that the family were having to confront. All staff showed sensitivity and preparedness to do all they could to make it as 'comfortable' as possible.

    We would strongly recommend them as an independent and family run business.

  • 5 Christine Howard 27th Feb 2018

    I could not have had a more caring and professional service. Susan Whymark and her team took the pain out of my sadness by helping me to organise a unique and beautiful service at my home. I also have the opportunity to join a bereavement group to help me through the difficult times ahead. Thank you.

  • 5 Christopher Mullins 24th Feb 2018

    Excellent service and consideration for the family..could not ask for more.

  • 5 Jill Hogg 23rd Feb 2018

    At an emotional time when a loved one passes away focusing on funeral arrangements is extremely difficult. We were recommended to trust the services of Susan Whymark and her team..it was sound advice which we sincerely pass to others.  If there was a 6 star rating we would award it, alas we settle for the top score available.  JH + RH.
