5 Wendy Gridley 16th Mar 2025
I cannot speak too highly of the service we received from Simon and his team after the loss of my mother.
The help we received while organising Mum's funeral was incredible and took away the stress, meaning we could concentrate on saying 'Goodbye' to Mum.
Nothing was too much trouble and Simon always had time to talk to us.Simon Helliar-Moore replied

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. As a gesture of good will, we will provide you with a complimentary download of the visual tribute. We wish you many happy memories -

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

Simon and Robert Hellier-Moore, and all at Crescent Funeral Service could not have done more to ensure that the funeral service for my mother was conducted to the highest standard.
