Everything was very professionally organised from start to finish. The staff were so helpful and kept us informed at each step which makes this difficult time so much easier. The funeral people were so good on the day and a special thanks to Jimmy and his team. The rev Martyn Jinks was so good in his delivery of the Eulogy. I would certainly recommend Jennifer Ash to anyone who has lost a loved one. Many thanks Stuart

Jennifer Ashe & Son arranged and conducted my dads funeral on 14th July 2021, this was a team effort from staff members at the Willenhall and Brownhill branches respectively, so this review applies to both branches. The care, compassion and support we have received from everyone at Jennifer Ashe is beyond comprehension and we cannot thank you enough, even now after the funeral. Our heartfelt thanks go to Willenhall branch Richard who attended our home to support us with the arrangements with the upmost care, compassion and respect, he made sure that we had the unique service we wanted, a funeral that he then led. To Leon who has been supporting us as we now choose look at a headstone, and who took thank you cards from me and kindly passed them on, not only that but he took the time to ask how the service had gone, and to have a general chat. Then for John as he is supporting us through some ongoing red tape, for replying to my emails outside of office hours and arranging the inernment. Moving on to Joe at Brownhills, who knew that we were keen to move him to the funeral home and kept us up to date every step of the way, he then made sure that he was well looked after until his funeral, and has also ensured the safe keeping of his clothes, flag, cap and football shirt until the day of his final journey home. To the hearse driver who delivered our loved one safely through the last stages of his final journey to home and then on to cannock crematorium. Finally to Phillipa who ensured the swift transfer of funds to our chosen charity.. A funeral directors isnt the first place you may think that you would be made to feel at home and part of the family, yet all at Jennifer Ashe ensure that this is how you are made to feel, and yes if we were to see staff members in the street we would most certainly say hello, shake their hands and thank them again personally. We will be eternally greatful to everyone. A unique man had a unique service and we couldn't have wished for or found anyone better to help us to deliver it for him. Would go as far as to consider all those who have helped and supported us as friends Much love Jodie Munn X

I would just like to say thankyou so much on behalf of myself and my family for making my Dads funeral such a perfect day. Nothing was ever too much trouble and Joe and Lucy at the Brownhills branch were always so kind and compassionate when I visited or telephoned with a query. The day ran so smoothly. Thankyou to Joe for that. I would highly recommend their services for removing some of the stress at such a difficult time. The order of service were beautifully done and the flowers perfect just what Dad would have loved. Thankyou too to the two drivers and the young man in attendance.

    Jennifer Ashe are an exceptionally caring and compassionate company and their service is outstanding. Having recently lost our mother, followed 12 weeks later by our father, we have been lucky enough to experience a level of service and support that surely is unrivalled. At a traumatic and upsetting time, the staff at Jennifer Ashe exceeded our expectations at every step of the way, guiding us through the process with a level of professionalism and care that we have rarely seen, and giving us the confidence that all would be well on the day. A special thanks to Richard who gave extra thought and inspiration to the service for our father, and made us certain everything was under control. Thanks to Joe who worked with us to secure the format that we wanted despite Covid restrictions for both funerals, and Daniel, whose rendition of the "Last Post" was beautiful. A truly excellent company, thank you for all you did for us.

    It is hard to find the words to express the careful consideration, the respect and thoughtfulness that was shown by Jennifer Ashe & Son in helping us through an extremely difficult time the funeral couldn’t have been any better. Every step of the way they kept in touch, they worked with us to achieve not just what we wanted but more. We can’t actually thank them enough. My brother was given the respect dignity and the sendoff that he deserved, all thanks to Jennifer Ashe & Son.

  • 5 Stella Hackett 22nd Jun 2021

    A truly professional company with an outstanding service. You made Dennis's last journey an amazing and a very memorable one and myself and the family are forever grateful.
    Thank you to everyone involved for all your caring wishes and dedicated hard work and support throughout this sad time.

  • 5 Sam Moylan 20th Jun 2021

    Caring and compassionate from the start Nothing was too much trouble they treated my brother with dignity and respect. Their prices may be low but the service they provide is second to non. Joe from brownhills branch couldn't do enough to make you feel at ease and Richard was very attentive to every detail on the day of the funeral.

  • 5 Ken Adams 14th Jun 2021

    We would highly recommend Jennifer Ashe funeral services. Everyone from the time we made our first contact were very professional and caring. Thank you to Joe who helped us with the arrangements and to Richard who supported us on the day of the funeral. Steve Brown, Civil Celebrant led the service and was excellent, they all were with us as stated, every step of the way.

  • 5 Tony Birch 18th May 2021

    This is just to record our profound thanks and gratification for the very professional undertaking of my sisters funeral. Everything ran like clock-work and the service undertaken by the Rev Martyn Jinks was performed to the highest possible standard. The Family also appreciated how the Cannock chase crematorium staff went the “extra yard” by allowing the doors to remain open to allow the mourners outside to hear the service. Once again, a very big thankyou to Joe and the staff at Jennifer Ashe & Son Funeral Directors, Brownhills and of course to the Rev Martyn Jinks.

    Really appreciated the clear and upfront web site.....made it easy to decide on what we wanted. Very sensitive and caring staff, who supported us at every step. Very professional service and everything on the day was absolutely spot on. Can't thank Lucy, Jo and Richard enough for their wonderful care and attention. They treated Mom as if she was their own.....what more can I say......

  • 5 Pauline Rooke 26th Apr 2021

    All staff were incredibly kind. Joe made planning Leslie's funeral a pleasurable event instead of a sad one. He was so lovely and kind. We were all looked after so well. They treated leslie with dignity and made him look beautiful. We are so glad we chose Jennifer ashe and sons. They made the planning, and the actual funeral so effortless, we didn't need to worry about anything. We cannot thank you all enough.

  • 5 Guy Rowland 19th Apr 2021

    I initially went to Jennifer Ashe and Son when mom died as they were the nearest funeral directors to me. I swiftly found, to my delight, that I could not have picked a better firm to deal with. Joe and Lucy were kindness personified, nothing was too much trouble for them with regard to organising the funeral. They really helped us through a very emotional time by being so friendly and were always there to talk when we needed it. The day itself went splendidly, and much of this was down to their care and professionalism which ensured that everything went without a hitch. Highly recommended.

  • 5 Susan Mercer 18th Apr 2021

  • 5 Lorraine Barker & Janice Catley 4th Apr 2021

    Following my father's funeral guests approached me, who felt embarrassed, and said how much they enjoyed the funeral. The support and service of jennifer ashe was second to none. I have had phone calls and comments stating it was the best order of service they have ever seen. The flowers on top of the coffin were outstanding. I cannot express the overwhelming service jennifer ashr have provided and would have no hesitation in recommending them.
