Excellent service, provided by a professional firm. Staff who took the pressure off at such a difficult time, and who offered support and knowledge, whatever the request. Most importantly, they were beautifully turned out and the cars immaculate. These details matter when it is the last mark of respect. I also felt confident that my sister was being cared for by people who really did care. They deserve their reviews and this is why we chose them.

Our beloved Mum passed away and our only previous connection with Stuart had been to donate knitted baby hats and shawls for premature babies, knitted by Mum.
Distraught with Mum's death, we called Stuart and we were immediately put at ease by Stuarts compassion, empathy and professionalism.
From that day onwards Stuart and his colleague Ellie guided and committed their assistance to help through friendship and knowledge, which created a warmth for us in those dark early days of preparation for Mum's funeral service.
So Thank you so much to you all for caring for her so much in the Chapel of rest, letting us celebrate her 70th Birthday with her cards around her. For travelling at 4am to bring Mum from Somerset to Essex with impeccable timing and for your professional representation as you carried Mum into the crematorium.
We hope this review genuinely provides a window of opportunity for us to share our eternal thanks. -

From the first phone call I ever made to Stuart Foster Funeral Services they have made me feel like nothing was too much trouble. At such a heartbreaking time in my life they made me feel at ease talking about things that were so raw. Their knowledge, guidance and support was exceptional and myself and my family will be eternally grateful.

We heard a whole lot of great stories of how caring Stuart Foster & his team are. We were guided the whole way through our journey. Stuart & his team took great care of my daughter Charli, they delivered all our expectations & prepared us & they thought of everything. All our questions were answered. Stuart & his team were very sincere & compassionate & understanding, caring & sympathetic. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. We would absolutely, whole heartedly like to say to Mr Stuart Foster, Antonia & all his team. A massive Big Thank you for meeting our needs & giving my daughter a Very Beautiful Service to set my Beautiful daughter free, on her journey to become the brightest star in the night sky -🌟-

I found Stuart Foster Funeral Services to be very helpful, courteous, compassionate and professional. I do not live locally and had to arrange the funeral from some distance but the staff were always on the end of the phone to talk things through. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company

From the first phone call to the aftercare following the funeral Stuart Foster and all his dedicated staff have been so supportive, empathetic and nothing was too much trouble for them. I felt this difficult time was made easier with their support
I would highly recommend them to anyone who is in the unfortunate situation of having to plan a funeral you will be supported at every stage of the difficult time -

Stuart and the team helped my family and I in a very professional and sensitive way at a very challenging time. The service we received was first class. All this helped to make matters more straightforward without any additional stress. I felt that my dear late mother had a great send off thanks to Stuart. She deserved the best and I believe she got just that.

Stuart and his team engaged perfectly with me, I live in Australia, but my sister passed away in the UK. I engaged Stuart as the company was closest to where my sister was being held post mortem. The professionalism was amazing and catered for my every need, even though I was the other side of the world. They catered for my every need as I travelled to cremate my sister, showing great compassion and kindness. I could not recommend the company any less than 5 stars out of 5. They treated the whole experience with utmost respect and the remote communication was without exception. I am so grateful to the team in what was a very troubled and emotional time in my life. Totally recommend. Thanks Geoff

At the most difficult time in our lives Trevor and the staff from Stuart Foster Funeral Services did everything in their power to ensure the best send off for my husband, making this part of our grief so much easier. Every member of the team, both before and on the day of the funeral has made me and my family feel listened to and respected. I cannot rate them highly enough, and if and when you need support and guidance through the tragedy of the loss of a loved one you will be in safe hands with this friendly and professional company.
