  • 5 Marian Girling 26th Aug 2025

    I cannot recommend Susan Whymark highly enough. They were so helpful and understanding throughout our organising my Mum's funeral. During the funeral they were very thoughtful and considerate to the family.

  • 5 Gill Clare 24th Aug 2025

    There was always some-one there to help with arrangements whether by phone, email or in person. Those with whom I dealt were unfailingly kind, compassionate, helpful and patient. The administration and attention to detail was superb and Mandy and Cathy helped guide us through those decisions that needed to be taken. The conduct of the funeral and committal was dignified and fitting and everything ran as smoothly as could be hoped for.

    Cathy Cunningham-Elliott replied
    Dear Gill - thank you for your kind words and feedback. It's a privilege to have been able to provide a fitting service for Nicholas and supporting you and your family. Cathy

  • 5 Adrian Chambers 27th Jul 2025

    As a family we are extremely grateful for the service we received, from all your staff , It made great difference during a difficult  time.

  • 4 Alison Damant 2nd Jul 2025

    Everyone has been extremely friendly and helpful especially Cathy at the Framlingham office.
    The only slight complaint i have is that i didn't want the curtains to close around the coffin on the day due to traumatic memories of this from my mum's funeral when a teenager. I see this as an unfortunate oversight and understand with so much happening it can easily be missed.

    Cathy Cunningham-Elliott replied
    Thank you for your kind comment Alison.
    Regards Cathy



    Dear Alison, Thank you for taking the time to give your review. I'm so sorry you were upset by the curtains closing during the committal. Unfortunately, we do not have control over the curtains during a cremation service. They are operated by the celebrant conducting the service who's takes responsibility for confirming this with the family and their wishes.
    Best wishes

  • 5 Adam O'Keeffe 24th Jun 2025

    Mandy and the whole team were so professional throughout. The choice of Melanie as the celebrant was perfect. Callendars florists did an amazing job with the flowers. Thank you one and all for making the day run smoothly and giving our mum the send off she deserved.

    Mandy Porter replied
    Dear Adam and Barry, I'm so pleased that we could give your mum the send off she deserved. It was an honour to be there for your both and your families. Best wishes Mandy

  • 5 David Missen 17th May 2025

    I cannot speak highly enough of the service provided. Everything was done simply and sensitively, and as executor I only needed to make a few straightforward decisions . A potentially stressful occasion went like clockwork with minimal input from me.
