Julia was very helpful and understanding throughout. All the arrangements went perfectly to plan, and the FD on the day ensured everything was excellent.

I have used John Weir funeral directors for both my parents who sadly died within 18 months of each other.
I have found the staff extremely helpful and professional and go above and beyond to fulfill the families wishes.
Julia in particular dealt with us and made the whole process just that little bit more easier.

Julia is wonderful, such a friendly, calming and supportive presence during a very difficult time. Shane and his team of drivers on the day were friendly, professional and so respectful. I want to extend my thanks to all staff at Parkwood/Rainham John Weir for looking after my wonderful Nan Pat so well

John Weir was not chosen but it was stipulated in the Will as they had been used twice before with success. They were excellent at organising the arrangements and went above and beyond to resolve a particularly difficult issue that was not of their making. On the day of the funeral I could not have wished for it to gave gone better. The John Weir staff in attendance at the funeral were accommodating, courteous and friendly at a time of sadness. John Weir was chosen for me in the Will and I can understand why and I, from my own experience, would thoroughly recommend them as well.

5 Richard Clacey 22nd Aug 2022
Absolutely amazing from the first time that we met Ben at the office of John Weir right through to the funeral day itself, Shane the conductor and the pall bearers were brilliant we couldn’t ask for more, as you can imagine totally respectful of my father and us the family, Amanda from John Weir rang the day before to make sure every little detail was correct and the day of the funeral ran like clockwork, having never done this before we knew nothing of the protocol and literally everything is explained to you and sorted, nothing is too much trouble, I would and will recommend John Weir Funeral Directors to anyone in the future, all you can ask is that your loved ones both in death and living are looked after and in our experience this is exactly what we got
Thank you Christine, Richard, Janice, Paul, Clare, Charlie, Phoebe and Owen -

The team looked after my mum very well, from collecting her at midnight to the last duty of carrying her through to the crematorium.
The hearse team were respectful throughout under the leadership of Shane who looked after my family while also presenting full respect to the dignity of mum and our family. We were kept informed throughout with regular contact from Les in the Gillingham office.
They have become our funeral directors of choice over the last decade and we will continue in the trend.
I would have no hesitation in recommending their services to friends and family. -
5 John Ross 20th Aug 2022
The service provided by John Weir Funeral Directors was excellent. From the first point of contact by phone, through to the day of the funeral and afterwards, everyone on the staff was kind, courteous, sympathetic, sensitive, efficient and professional. We returned to this firm because we were so pleased with their service at the time of a previous bereavement some years ago. Their standards were equally high on this occasion. I would say the service they provided was perfect. I have no hesitation in recommending them.

Les and Amanda at Gillingham went beyond our expectations. Such compassion, sympathy and understanding was shown throughout. Attention to detail and double checking everything we asked for made sure the service was exactly as we wished. Unfortunately the celebrant really let us down on the day but this was not the fault of John Weir and they took our feedback gracefully and passed the information onto the necessary people. Thank you so much Les and Amanda for helping us with great dignity every step of the way.

Ben who looked after me while planning my dad's funeral was simply amazing, he explained everything and was a caring soul just like all of the people there. In what was a tough part of my life for my family all the people at John Weir made it somewhat easier and was just the epitome of a great bunch of caring people. Thank you for everything from my whole family to yours

Julia was very helpful and considerate. I could not attend on the day due to a covid infection but my wife has told me that everything went smoothly and professionally. No one enjoys the funeral of a loved one, but the situation was made a lot better by all of the John Weir staff.

5 Jane Peters 6th Aug 2022
We have used John Weir for grandparents, parents, uncle and cousin. Every funeral has been handled with the utmost care and professionalism. At such painful times it is so important to have a team in place who can be trusted to ensure everything runs smoothly. From Julia (Parkwood Office) who does the planning to the Bearers on the day, we were treated with nothing but kindness and patience.
Thank you -
