    I can honestly say Michael Carden went above and beyond to help us, our dear Dad passed away just before the Christmas holidays with all the public offices closed down, Michael sorted everything out for us and his help was so appreciated, the service for Dad was beautiful and so respectfully done, our family are so appreciative for all Michael did for us.

  • 5 Johnathan Hart 6th Feb 2024

  • 5 Anne-Louise Savery 10th Jan 2024

    I recently had the difficult task of arranging a funeral service for a loved one, and I must say that the experience with Carden and Sons was exceptional. From the very first call, Michael displayed utmost compassion and professionalism. He listened to my needs and preferences, ensuring every detail was handled with care and respect.
    Michael was incredibly supportive, guiding me through the process with patience and understanding. The recommendation for the celebrant Jo Raynor made the service very special, the atmosphere was comforting, offering a sense of peace and closure.
    In a time of grief and loss, it's invaluable to have a funeral service that you can rely on to handle things with grace and professionalism. Iam deeply grateful to Carden and Sons and Michael for his exceptional service during my time of need. He went above and beyond to ensure that the final farewell was a fitting tribute.

  • 5 Phillip Keens 17th Nov 2023

    Thank you for everything 

  • 5 Tom Johnson 26th Sep 2023

    Michael Carden was recommended to us by a member of the medical profession and he turned out to be a guy who helped us every inch of the way. He did far more that we could have hoped for. For example there was a problem with the certificate of death from the GP, we almost had to cancel the funeral, but with Michael's help plus the Corner and the Registrar all was saved at the last minute almost.

    We would have no hesitation of recommending Carden & Sons to anyone.

  • 5 Janet Higgins 8th Mar 2023

    After the passing of my partner I just did not know where to start with funeral arrangements. Just one phone call and Mick Carden took all my worries and the pressure of arranging everything from myself and the family. Working along side me to make sure Karls wishes we’re all taken into consideration. Not only arranging the funeral also offering to bring shoppin, then going  miles out of his way to get the specific floral tribute than I wanted he was amazing treating Karl with dignity and respect until the very end. I cannot Thank Mick and his team enough for what they did they deserve 20 stars not 5
