5 Andrew Holmes 5th Sep 2022
Stuart and his colleagues went the extra mile to make our family grief as bearable as possible. He is friendly and comforting, with enough humour to break the ice while remaining most respectful.
They had positive and appropriate suggestions for things where we were unsure. For example playing extracts of music for the service.
Everything was explained upfront, with no hidden costs and no attempt to "upsell". I thoroughly recommend Stuart Foster Funeral Services.Stuart Foster replied

5 Nicola Milnes 12th Jun 2022
It has taken me a minute to write this review, simply because there is truly no words or enough times we can say thank you that will ever express how grateful my family and myself are for the amazing care and support we have received from Stuart and his lovely team, after my brother Dean passed away suddenly.
Having known Stuart on a personal level for many many years, there was no question as to who we would be entrusting the care of our beautiful Dean.
Stuart and his team made such a sad time that little bit easier, they went above and beyond, although they won't see it as this, as to them caring for Dean comes so natural to them they do it with so much love and passion, we as a family have felt this throughout every step of our journey. Unfortunately as sad as it may be death is a part of life and I could not recommend Stuart and his team enough, if you are ever in the position where you need their services, I could not recommend a better team to assist you at this sad time.
I believe our journey of grief has been made that little bit easier having Stuart, Jo and Sue by our side every step of the way.
A friend asked me how did the funeral go? Without hesitation I said it was beautiful,amazing. And that is mostly down to Stuart and his team. As a family we will be forever grateful to them.Stuart Foster replied
Dear Nicola, your kind words and comments are very much appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review at such a difficult time.
Kindest regards, Stuart & the team -
5 Antonia Dowden 13th Jun 2022
We held a lovely non-religious service dedicated to my dear sister in Stuarts Chapel of Rest....it was perfect in every way.
I knew when I first met Stuart that he understood what I wanted for my sister and would make the service right for her.... that he certainly did! The celebrant he chose to hold the service Antonia was just so perfect. I am eternally grateful for Stuart and Antonia's support and for making the service so special. ThankyouStuart Foster replied
Dear Antonia, thank you for allowing us to care for your sister. We are so pleased to hear that we provided you all with the perfect service to honour her memory.
Kindest regards, Stuart & the team -
5 Kayleigh Swann 15th Jun 2022
Stuart and his team were absolutely fantastic, from the moment I rang to enquire up til our Dad's funeral. I never expected so much care, thought and support leading up to our Dads funeral, let alone afterwards. Stuart really is a wonderful man and such a credit to his profession. Thank you for making this process that little bit easier.

5 Alexandra Joanes 11th Jul 2022
I wanted a very traditional funeral for my husband and Stuart and his team delivered exactly what I asked for. Every care was taken to keep me reassured throughout the process and on the day of the funeral. All recommendations regarding flowers and the celebrant were perfect. And the orders of service were produced in accordance with my requests, including several alterations, and were of a very high standard and quality.

5 Fred Wavell 19th Jul 2022
Sadly, this was the second time in a few months that we had a family funeral but Stuart and his colleagues were very supportive, sensitive and understanding in taking us through the process once again. The arrangements were made faultlessly and the service was just as we had specified, very moving and appropriate. Antonia, the celebrant, conducted a really sympathetic and respectful service, reflecting accurately and with feeling the life of Hilary.
Stuart Foster replied
Dear Fred, thank you for allowing us to look after you and your family. And thank you for your very kind words, it is much appreciated.
