5 Jackie Hitchcott 28th May 2019
From the moment they came to pick up mum the care and dedication and respect shown was obvious.
Nothing was too much trouble, Simon answered all questions in detail and clearly. The planning was impeccable and we couldn’t have been happier with Simon and the team.
This is not the first time I have had occasion to be in need of Simons services and each time he has been excellent.
I am very happy to recommend

They coordinated well with the various other entities, so we could be assured all components were taken care of.

5 Jill Berry 28th Aug 2019
From the moment we walked into Crescent Funeral Services, we were treated with the utmost respect and gentle care, which continued throughout until the funeral was over.
Simon was very welcoming, understanding, kindly and so helpful at all times. He was always available on the phone, or one of his team would ring back immediately if he had to be elsewhere. He guided us through the details, the choices etc without making us feel rushed. Nothing was too much trouble for him.
Simon quietly took control and helped us to get through a very difficult day, and I cannot thank him enough for all that he did.
I would 100% recommend Crescent Funeral Services without hesitation. Thank you so much, Simon.Simon Helliar-Moore replied
