Having never arranged a funeral before, I attended Co-op Funeral Care at Hemsworth following the death of my father. Over the next few days, Gemma and Sam made the whole process so easy and straight forward. Thank you Ladies, your expertise and guidance really helped. Also a special thank you to Alan Taylor from the Barnsley branch who directed the funeral on the day, following my personal request.

    Nicola the funeral
    Director was astounding !! 
    She went above and  beyond to satisfy all my concerns worries. Everybody probably feels there situation unique and at no time did I not feel this. The care and attention as the client was phenomenal. I can honestly say no stone was unturned and the compassion from Nicola , Gemma and Sam was so lovely. Any slight issue or nighle  or concern I had I felt they had my back and were true support during what will undoubtedly be one of the hardest parts of my life. With this in mind I have decided when all probate is sorted I will pay for a prearranged funeral for myself so the kids don’t have to make choices that I did . Thank you Nicola and all the team at hemsworth coop
