Simon, Robert, Katie and the whole team at Crescent were absolutely amazing. Thier kind compassionate care of my late Mum, my family and myself went above and beyond to make such a horrible time in our life as smooth and as easy as possible.
They helped me organise everything, and helped me so much, nothing was too much trouble, without them I would not have gotten through it.
The service they gave my mum on the day, what they delivered and organised was amazing and all with such care, pride and compassion. It felt as if they were looking after their own loved one from the minute my mum went into their care.
For anyone unfortunately in the position of needing this service, I can not recommend Crescent enough. Every single member of staff.......you are all wonderful and fabulous at what you do. Thank you.🥰💐Simon Helliar-Moore replied

5 Caroline Lawson 5th Jun 2025
I would like to thank Simon and his wonderful team at Crescent Funeral Services for their brilliant and professional expertise in looking after planning and execution of Christine Lawson's funeral service today. Could I also say a big thank you to Tim Hodge for his wonderful planning of Christine's service and the excellent way he conducted it.
I know Chris would have been very proud of the way everything was handled and I believe all who attended would agree that it could not have been more professionally done.
With thanks,
John and family

5 Linda Trott 25th Feb 2025
Amazing personal service. James guided us through the process so compassionately.
The one minor concern was noted and apologised for (we were only given 4 hours from email delivery to confirm and accept the final photo montage but this was not stated in the email ) However it was one minor point in an otherwise great service.
James Chorley replied
Dear Linda, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts on our services. We are pleased to have met your needs and I am grateful that the minor concern was rectified.

5 Martyn Hembrow 29th Jan 2025
There is never such a thing as a convenient time to lose a loved one but when this happens four days prior to Christmas, and you do not get the medical certificate until late in the afternoon of Christmas Eve, then you really need a first class funeral service provider to take care of all the arrangements. That is when Crescent Funeral Services came to "the rescue" and just literally took over and guided me through all the administration that certainly was not straightforward as offices were closed for the public holidays over Christmas and New Year.
James of CFS kept in contact with me and made himself available at all times over the holiday period ensuring that I knew what was happening and allowed me to come to terms with my loss.
One visit after Christmas with James at their conveniently located offices and all the decisions were taken care of - crematorium booking, service details, vicar, gazette notification, flowers and even the booking of the wake for that totally necessary cup of tea and cake afterwards at the Meryan House, Bishops Hull.
Just one last comment to make - Thank You, CFS and team, for being there when I needed you!
James Chorley replied
Dear Martyn, thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your thoughts on our services. We wish you a lifetime of wonderful memories
