    From first contact we found that John and his team made what is a difficult time so much easier with their caring and knowledgeable support

    Nothing was too much trouble. All the small details such as providing umbrellas at the funeral to listening to exactly what we wanted with no pressure to pay more than was necessary.

    John and his team were available 24/7 to answer and help with any queries. Even checking in on my mum on the day of the funeral and posting a laminated order of service for her as a keepsake

    We are extremely grateful and cannot praise them highly enough

    We found John Pearce and his team excellent in our recent dealings with them regarding my Fathers funeral.

I would highly recommend them.

  • 5 Siobhan Elliott 6th Feb 2020

    After our mother passed away, John Pearce and his team took care of all the necessary arrangements with considerable compassion and efficiency. From the first contact, we felt reassured that we were in good hands. John guided us through each step of the process with great kindness, always accommodating our needs and wishes, making us feel that nothing was too much trouble. We visited our mother at the chapel of rest and took great comfort from its peaceful and respectful setting . On the day of the funeral, John and his team were exceptional, making sure the service and burial proceeded in an unhurried and dignified manner. John even brought a box of rose petals to the graveside, an unexpected touch that we greatly appreciated. I cannot recommend John and his team highly enough; they provided professional, compassionate support at a difficult time.

  • 5 Tracey Mosley 26th Jan 2020

    I would highly recommend Pearce Funeral Services to care for your loved one when their time comes. Not only do they just look after your loved one, they also care for the family throughout the entire process and will continue to do so after the funeral.  Every person is professional and respectful and I personally wouldn’t use anyone else to entrust my loved one with.

    Excellent service throughout the whole process. Very attentive throughout.

    Have to praise all the  staff on the day. Carrying the coffin on the day was extremely tricky due to the weather. All the bearers did very well in trying conditions.

    Would highly recommend Pearce funeral services.

  • 5 Debbie Wear 10th Nov 2019

    Pearce funeral services and John were excellent . They helped guide us through a very stressful time. Would highly recommend them . 

  • 5 Roslyn Timlin 5th Nov 2019

    Nothing was too much trouble. From first discussions through to the funeral I knew I had support and I knew I could ask questions if I had any. John was very accommodating with making sure I had the correct design on the casket and very very patient. The staff at the funeral home were also accommodating, compassionate and extremely helpful when I visited mum and again nothing was too much trouble. They helped me through a range of emotions
    ie nervous laughter to near enough hysteria and always answered any
    questions or concerns I had. When I asked John a question about something I’d read on the internet and I was worried, he said to always ring and ask if I needed to know anything.  They also
    supported my request to drive past one of my mums favourite haunts on the way to the crematorium. I felt reassured mum and I were in good hands and they were always very respectful of mum and I. I would have no hesitation in recommending Pearce Funeral Services.

  • 5 Peter Lango 28th Oct 2019

    Pearce funeral services and in particular John Pearce and his staff were absolutely brilliant, I can’t thank them enough for how they got us through the whole process when we lost our mum, nothing ever was any trouble  for them,  they made the grieving process easier with how they dealt with and spoke to all the family members, I would always recommend them a first class company with an excellent attitude and understanding, thank you Pearce funeral services outstanding, Pete Lango
