Stibbards took care of my Dad when he passed away nine years ago. This time it was my Mum, who lost her life to covid. They provided the same level of care and respect and offered exactly the same services this time, despite the pandemic which I know many other funeral directors were not offering. Consummate professionals, thank you.

We couldn’t have asked for better. Lisa from the Canvey Stibbards was really lovely, kind and patient, nothing was too much trouble.
On the funeral day the team were so professional yet warm and approachable.
I would highly recommend them.Dave Ponton replied

Stibbards took over all the necessary arrangements from the date we contacted them about Joyce's death and provided us with all the information as regards choosing a coffin, arranging flowers or donations to a charity and the conduct of the funeral service itself, which the Rev Jon Stannard led with dignity was very well planned. There was always a member of staff available to assist with any questions we wished to ask.

5 Ashley Targett 13th Mar 2021
I’ve never arranged a funeral before...Scott and Martin went beyond their remit patiently guiding me through the process. I would say the atmosphere at Stibbards is one of warmth and compassion.
And Simon, our support on the day was wonderful.

5 Ian Williams 14th Mar 2021
Having no experience of arranging a funeral before, it was daunting to make that first call. I needn't have worried as Kate McIntyre at Westcliff made it as straightforward as it could be. Her advice was spot on, it was like she knew me and what would be best for the circumstances. She responded to each email promptly and was a great help, always remaining patient, kind, professional and accurate. On the day of the funeral the staff from Stibbards at the crematorium were compassionate and helpful. I could not have hoped for a better service from start to finish.
Martin Stibbards replied
Dear Ian, thank you for your kind words and especially your praise for Kate, I know that she always tries to look after her families to the best of her ability and guide them through such a difficult time. Kindest regards, martin Stibbards -
5 Mary Reed 16th Mar 2021
Right from the start when I called Stibbards they have been so helpful and understanding. From Debbie at their offices through to Jon Stannard who conducted a really wonderful funeral for my husband. I was recommended to go to Stibbards and i'm so pleased iI did. They made the whole process that much easier and I would recommend them as they were excellent
Martin Stibbards replied
Dear Mary, thank you for allowing us to look after the arrangements for Terry, I am so please that you were satisfied with the care and service we provided to you. Kind regards, Martin Stibbards -
5 Rob Sapsford 2nd Mar 2021
The whole process was managed very well by both Debbie and Scott.
Think in such unfortunate situations, as loosing a parent, you need to be guided and looked after and Stibbard’s most definitely did.
Thank you for doing that for us Debbie, Scott and your teams. Rob and Emma x -

5 Anne Wood 27th Feb 2021
We can never thank you enough for the service recieved from you at this difficult time. You have been like another member of the family, always there to answer questions, allay our fears and completely understand what we are going through. You treated us all with such respect especially Brian - your care of him, for him, was overwhelming.
The funeral was beautiful, Brian would have been proud. The cars were fabulous and all the staff from Stibbards were outstanding.
Special mention for Lisa who has been there whenever we needed her, to Stuart for his special help with the car and for Martin who genuinely made us feel at ease as he led us through the final farewell to Brian. Thank you , you are first class.
From Anne Wood and all the family x x -
