    Dave and everybody at Pearce’s were very thoughtful and understanding at a extremely  difficult time for myself and family. 

  • 5 Caroline Kalina 1st Oct 2017

    Throughout our discussions with John Pearce, my family and I, felt well supported. He treated us with dignity and respect and listened carefully to our requests.  As Mr Pearce guided us, he was also happy to answer our questions and gave us advice on the hymns and  flowers that we had chosen.  As we had decided that we wanted a printed service sheet to commerate our mother's life Mr Pearce was equally knowledgeable in this area.  His offer to prayer for us was also very touching which I thank Mr Pearce for.   On the day of the funeral we were guided by him and everything was handled with compassion.  This is why I have rated Pearce Funeral Service as 'excellent'.  Equally the service was delivered beautifully by the Revd. George Fleming. For anyone going through such a difficult process as this, rest assured Mr Pearce will be by your side.

    Compassionate, helpful,supportive and respectful. The Chapel of Rest arrangements were very thoughtful. We were numb from shock and they guided us gently through the nightmare.They did not do a hard sell on anything and made a dreadful time bearable.
    Now the funeral is over I have had time to think and reflect, I have no regrets on any arrangements made at their suggestion.

    Thank you.

    Having used Pearce funeral services once, I will never use another company when it's next needed.

    They were absolutely remarkable, planning a funeral is one of the hardest things you have to do but John and the team took all the stress from us, they did everything as my father wanted and the attention to detail was lovely, they showed love, compassion and respect from start to finish and I can't thank them enough.

    We cannot thank Pearce Funeral Service enough for their empathetic and understanding arrangement of our son's recent funeral. During the darkest 3 weeks of our lives they were with us at every stage, offering advice and assistance. They made the whole process just so smooth and easy at a time when we could barely function and for that we will be forever grateful.

  • 5 Mandy Woodward 4th Apr 2017

    Sadly I was overseas when my wonderful Father passed away. A friend recommended John Pearce and the care home suggested another. I contacted both. From the very first contact there was no doubt who I would choose and that I would be in very safe, caring and professional hands. John's team are extremely professional. But it is John himself who goes the extra mile. His attention to detail, the amount of time he spent with me before the funeral and even after was so comforting. Truly nothing was too much trouble for John. Everything was arranged to perfection and with great respect, sensitivity and dignity. Marjorie Jefferies who conducted the service was wonderful too. The day of the funeral was a blur but John guided me through it. If you are looking for quality and professionalism look no further than John Pearce.
