I have used Pearce Funeral services three times now and I cannot speak highly enough of them. The attention to detail and very understanding and helpfulness in a sad and stressful time has always been exceptional.

I cannot thankyou enough. It was an emotional time and John and the team at Pearce's made everything so much more easy . Nothing was too much trouble. They made the whole family feel special. From the minute we called them to collect my husband to after the service. Thankyou all so very much from the bottom of my heart. I thoroughly recommend this very professional company. Other members of family have had Pearce funeral services for their funeral and I will certainly recommend and use them again in the future. I was also so touched by one of the members of Pearce's as he collected my husband . Whilst we were at crematorium he realized it was us and asked his colleague if he could swop with him as he wanted to carry my husband into the crematorium as he knew him. Thankyou to you too. That's was above and beyond so thankyou to you too. Well done to you all xx Thankyou all

John Pearce and his team committed to managing the burial of my late husband. From the start I found John particularly supportive and respectful, willing to carry every detail for honouring my husband and serving my family. Above that he was compassionate and understanding to embrace our physical, emotional and spiritual needs. He spoke kindly on how to help our grandchildren which enhanced their understand of the passing of their loved grandpapa into a better place. They could look with hope during the burial service and joined in with renewed intensity. That was a joy to me as their grandmother. The other outstanding feature of this particular undertaker is his attention to detail. He gently prompted me of all the possibilities that I might need to consider bringing the final event into a seamlessly beautiful burial of my loved one. From preparing the coffin to visit in the chapel of rest, to the lovely flowers on the coffin, to the petals scattered on the grave, through gathering a really professional team of coffin bearers who brought a hidden presence of support and respect throughout. Punctual and caring with a kind demeanour, John truly undertook for us. My family and I are most thankful and can recommend this very personal and professional company.
