  • 5 Christine Woods 30th Jan 2023

    Co-op at Blaydon Funeralcare did an excellent job of care. They followed our late mother's funeral plan to the letter. We, the family were very impressed with the undertaker and the staff in the funeral home. They handled a lot of the administration. They left us information regarding the Minister who would be taking the service. We met the Minister and the florist in charge of the floral tributes. As the day of the funeral came we were called up ensuring we were well. Our mother was visited on occasions, we were never denied visits.
    We were afforded a very professional and personal service from the Co-op Funeralcare at Blaydon.

  • 5 Marion Stead 23rd Jan 2023

    We’d leave more stars if we could. Nikki and the whole team were beyond friendly and so supportive and caring through such a difficult time for the entire family. They took an enormous amount of pressure off the funeral planning section and made the day such a great one that held Colin in a beautiful light. They supported the whole family during the chapel of rest services and always provided a shoulder to cry on. They made sure that every tiny detail that we wanted included was met and exceeded. We truly can never thank them enough for being so amazing over the past few weeks. A credit to the service and we’d recommend to anyone.
