We just wanted to thank Pip so much again for the wonderful way you lead us through everything to arrange Dad's funeral. Right from our initial phone call, organising the paperwork, through to Dad's actual service, Pip’s compassion, care and understanding were second to none. The whole family really felt at ease in that no little detail would be missed. You were such a help when we visited you and advised us on the steps and the decisions that needed to be taken whilst listening carefully to the family’s wishes. We cannot thank Pip enough for her professional services at such a difficult time

Pip and her company were absolutely first class at dealing with our recent bereavement of husband/dad/grandad. She knows exactly how to support a family through a very dark time, a true professional and wonderful personality. From that first agonising phone call, she made all the arrangements go smoothly, all the procedures, the service, cremation and after support. Thank you so much from all the Holland family.

What an absolute diamond. At the toughest time the team at Widmer End were so attentive and supportive and having the opportunity to visit (deceased was kept on site not elsewhere) was great for the family to say goodbye before the funeral. Pip was so accommodating for which we were tremendously thankful. Everything was arranged, nothing was too much trouble. Thank you for your kindness. Highly recommended

My sister recently passed away. We decided to use Widmer End & District Funeral Directors. Pete her husband and l met with Pip. She was friendly, put us at ease straight away , knowledgeable, caring, very professional and took her time to talk us through all her services offered. Every thing was arranged for us from start to finish without a hitch. From Order of service, Celebrant and the looking after my sister in her care on site. Visiting her was never a problem. Of course at the Funeral every thing went smoothly too. She treated us as if we were one of her family. Thank you Pip and all yo
