  • 5 Richard Garner 7th Sep 2026

    Absolutely perfect, faultless service from Jennifer Ashe & Son.

    Around May 2025 they did the funeral for one of my best friends who died suddenly which is how I became aware of them. They did a fantastic job which was also confirmed by my friends surviving 90 year old parents. So as both my parents were well in to their 80s (mom 84, dad 88) & living with dementia I was always going to use Jennifer Ashe & Son when one or both passed away.

    Sadly my dear old dad died on 2nd August 2026 and we had to arrange a funeral the same month as some of my dads friend's had holidays booked for September and wouldn't be able to attend. Despite this being a very emotional & sad time for me, my sister and brother Jennifer Ashe & Son were very respectful, dignified & professional all the way through the funeral process.

    The actual funeral itself couldn't of gone any better. As my dad got into his 80s he was worried that he would end up having a 'paupers funeral' despite reassurances from us his children that he wouldn't. So when the time came we made sure that he got the 'best of the best' with his coffin carried to Bushbury Crematorium by two beautiful, white horses followed by two spotless hearses carrying the family. After the funeral service we were dropped off at my dads wake.

    I Would highly recommend Jennifer Ashe & Son to anyone who is looking for a funeral directors for their loved one. A Definite 10/10 from me and the rest of my family.

  • 5 Joanne Philpott 10th Aug 2026

    What a wonderful funeral directors from ringing up to arrange going in and sitting down and booking the funeral.
    When we went in and sat down with Philippa and talking to her and listening to you with interest at the most difficult time in someone’s life organising a funeral for a loved one. Then with Jimmy  who came in and organised dates for the funeral and then when we had the funeral and Jimmy lead the funeral with the team he had with him professionalism on this company from start to finish is incredible and would recommend to anyone who was looking to book a funeral it gives you a family environment and you are invited into the family and a difficult time.

  • 5 Simon Bond 16th May 2026

    Our deep thanks and appreciation firstly go to our Personal Funeral Advisor, Philippa Neville. Pip treated my husband and I with such professional courtesy at our first meeting but at the same time was deeply personal and made us smile which touched us both greatly. Even though not always in person, it felt like she held our hand throughout the whole process from start to finish.

    The funeral itself was perfect! Without exception, everyone who attended commented on how beautiful it was. The utmost professionalism, courtesy and consideration was shown by Jimmy and his team. They looked and acted impeccably!

    The eulogy was not only beautifully written but was also beautifully delivered by Joseph Evans the funeral celebrant.

    We wish to express our deepest thanks and heartfelt gratitude to all of you.

Philippa has been an absolute rock through this difficult time and she really is one in a million, she is a very important and valued team member. Thank you so much for ensuring mom looked her best and thank you to Joseph for the beautiful words you spoke at the service, a very fitting tribute for mom. Again thank you so much for everything you’ve all done, it really means the world. It’s made a situation that was extremely difficult that little more easier, and we will always be eternally grateful for that. Thank you 

  • 5 Phil Turner 28th Oct 2025

    Sadly we have recently organised our third funeral this year, all of which have been through Jennifer Ashe, Willenhall.  Many thanks to Philippa for her care and respect for our young son, father and mother and to Philippa and Angela for showing compassion during our difficult visits to the branch.
    Joseph is a wonderful young man, he has guided us through each service and has spoken beautifully of our loved ones.  Through unbelievable heartache, he has made extremely difficult conversations bearable.  Thank you Joe for your love, thoughtfulness and kindness.
    Jimmy has looked after us on our most difficult days.  Again, a wonderful young man, professional, caring and thoughtful.  
    Mr Ashe, you have a team of wonderful people. They are a credit to you and their profession.  Thank you for your impeccable service x
