5 Jo Scranage 12th May 2026
From the initial call to inform Crescent Funeral Services my lovely Mum had sadly passed away, up until her funeral on 7th May, I was treated with care, warmth & empathy. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Simon & this team cared for Dad too when we lost him two years ago & I couldn't have wished for better care for either of my parents or family support at a difficult time.
Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Thank you, Jo for your kind words on our services. We wish you all the best as you move forward with beautiful memories of your parents. It’s been our honour to walk alongside you during these sad times. -

5 Dawn Cunnington 22nd Apr 2026
We would like to thank Katie for all her kindness, care and professionalism she showed to Glyn and I when planning and undertaking my Mums funeral. She made this really difficult time easy by her calm, kind manner and nothing was too much trouble.
When Mum died James & Leon attended to her in the nursing home in a very respectful and professional way.
The funeral went really smoothly and Katie & her colleagues put us all at ease and helped us on this difficult day. All of them seemed to really care about what they were doing and wanted to do it well.
Overall we were so pleased that we chose Crescent Funeral Services in Langport and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is recently bereaved.
Katie Rankin replied
Dear Dawn and Glyn, thank you do much for your lovely words, it was such an uplifting funeral celebrating Mum's life. I wish you both so many wonderful memories of her. Best wishes

5 Ashley Mills 31st Mar 2026
From the first telephone call to take mum into their care, to the interment of mum's ashes, James and the team were nothing short of exceptional.

5 Caroline Rowe 7th Apr 2026
Simon and all the team at Crescent were kind and caring and dealt with Mum's wishes with a minimum of fuss. She would have been so pleased with how the funeral went - especially the horses and the huntsman sounding 'gone to ground' for her. As an 'insider' family, we were really touched that the whole team turned out to support us, especially my husband, their colleague, and for us to be recipients of the 'Crescent way'. Thanks, all!
Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Caroline and all the family. We are so honoured to have been chosen to look after your mum, a lady who knew her mind and what she wanted for her farewell. We are pleased ot have fulfilled those wishes and to have supported you all through the weeks leading up to the funeral and on the day itself. We wish you all many happy memories to sustain you in the coming days. -

5 Richard Tricker 3rd Apr 2026
Simon and his colleagues at Crescent Park Funeral Service carried out the utmost and simplistic of ceremonies that my Dad could never have foreseen. And if he'd known about it - he would certainly have concurred. Many thanks to Simon, Leon and his team at CPFS. Richard Tricker

5 Sue McLagan 3rd Mar 2026
Simon, Katie and James managed my husband's funeral arrangements with professionalism, empathy, and humanity throughout. Every detail was managed with dignity, respect, and genuine understanding.
What meant the most was the gentle support offered to us as we navigated funeral arrangements at the same time as grieving. Nothing ever felt rushed or impersonal. Instead, we were guided with patience, warmth, and a level of care that made a difficult journey feel a little easier.
Thank you Simon, Katie and James.Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Sue, Sian, Ellis, Eve, Martha and Lucy, We are so very humbeld by your kind words and thank you for offering your review. It has been our privilege to walk this road with you, helping you to find time to be together in your grief and honouring your memories of Pete. -
5 Brian Sparks 3rd Mar 2026
We knew the very high quality available from all members of the team at Crescent Funeral Services because we had used them previously when my father passed away a few years ago. From the moment my mother passed away, we knew we would use their services again and, as a family, we had no regrets with this choice. Exemplary on all counts. Simon and his team gave us every professional consideration showing courtesy, understanding and the highest of professional standards at every stage during our very sad time. A 'THANK YOU' seems inadequate but a RECOMMENDATION to the highest level is not.
Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Thank you Brian and Kevin for this most outstanding review of our services. We are so pleased we were able to be there for you once more to help you all navigate this journey through your grief. We wish you all many years of wonderful memories of your dear mother and father. -
5 Angela Whatley 3rd Mar 2026
I cannot rate Simon, Robert and all at the Crescent funeral services highly enough.
We lost mum just before Christmas, and the Crescent came highly recommended. They took care of mum from her passing to the interment with dad last weekend.
Mum was resting in the chapel of rest, with a duvet and pillow, just as though she was sleeping, so the grandchildren were able to say their goodbyes in a relaxed setting.
Loosing someone is a very sad and difficult time, but this was made easier with the caring and kindness of Simon and Robert. Nothing was too much trouble for them. We were able to see mum whenever we wanted to, and they were always at the end of the phone if we had any questions. I would highly recommend the Crescent and will definitely be using their services again if/when i need them.Simon Helliar-Moore replied
Dear Angie and family, we are so grateful to you for taking the time to share your thoughts on our services. You were such a wonderful family to care for and we hope your memories of your parents last for many years to come with a smile. -
5 Wendy Graves 24th Feb 2026
My daughters and I just wanted to say a huge thank you to Katie for her help through all the process, from the first meeting to the funeral and beyond. Her calm and supportive presence for our family and her care for my husband spoke volumes about her professionalism and personality.

Dear Wendy, Thank you so much for your kind words. It was a pleasure and an honour to walk beside you all. We wish you a lifetime of wonderful memories.
Best wishes Katie and the team -
