I am writing to express my deepest gratitude for the outstanding services provided by Co-op Funeralcare during one of the most challenging times of my life.

My wonderful and brave wife left us after an 18-month battle with cancer, and in the midst of profound grief and uncertainty, I turned to Co-op Funeralcare for support.

The team, especially Lucy and Leigh, exemplified unparalleled patience, understanding, and compassion. Having not made any prior funeral arrangements, I was overwhelmed with the task at hand, and their unwavering support and reassurance were invaluable. They promptly took my wife to their chapel of rest and scheduled a meeting later that day to discuss the necessary arrangements.

Throughout this emotionally charged period, the Funeralcare team demonstrated exceptional care and empathy, supporting not only me but also my three grieving children. The room they provided for my wife was not just a place for arrangement discussions; it was a sanctuary. Personalized and adorned with a beautiful Christmas theme – a small tree, lights, and a scenic winter woodland "window" – it was a touching tribute to my wife's love for the holiday season. The Bluetooth speaker playing her favorite Christmas songs added an extra layer of warmth and comfort.

The entire process, from the initial meeting to the beautiful service just two weeks later, was handled with the utmost professionalism and attention to detail. The Funeralcare team provided guidance, advice, and constant communication, ensuring we were informed every step of the way.

The personalized touches, the empathy displayed, and the meticulous attention to detail truly made a difference during an incredibly difficult time.

Co-op Funeralcare stepped in at the shortest notice and delivered a farewell for my wife that surpassed all expectations. I cannot thank the entire team enough for their outstanding service, kindness, and support during this profoundly challenging period.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Barry

I cannot thank Nichola, Roo, Leigh and all the team at the Windy Nook branch.
Once again, you took myself and my family into your Coop Family and treat us with dignity, respect, empathy and compassion.
Many times,in my eyes yous went above and beyond what was expected of yous and I will never forget yous.
From the first phone call to you's to inform you my beautiful mam had passed away. the respect and empathy shown to my family when yous came to the house to take mam to the chapel of rest, Nichola constantly updated us with details and if I was unsure of anything, Nichola was always there at the end of the telephone.
We had the privilege of meeting Roo, myself and especially my daughters were able to connect to him (with him being young) and his empathy and understanding brought my daughters comfort during the sad loss of their nanna.

It's actually Gary here. I couldn't speak highly enough of the service we received. We've unfortunately had 2 funerals in the past few months and both times the service has been 1st class. I won't name any individuals as everyone we have dealt with has been wonderful in every way. Thank you to you all, and I won't hesitate to recommend you to other members of the family.

5 Irene Watson 31st Jul 2023

When you are confronted with having to deal with a funeral along with the sudden shock and sadness of the death of a loved one it can be a daunting task. However when I contacted the Co op funeral care they carefully guided and helped at each stage of the way. On the actual day of the funeral they were very supportive and ensured that any queries we may have had were answered and dealt with. I would highly recommend the Co op.
