What people say

★★★★★
John Knowles Funeral team have been exceptional and compassionate during our difficult time. Their professionalism, kindness and empathy they provided was of great comfort in particular Jan Parker who was our main contact for organizing my dad's funeral. As this was a new world for us, we were kept informed every bit of the way and guided without a sales pitch which was exceptional and very much appreciated.

My Nan was under the care of Sarah at the Broughton branch. Whilst the funeral arrangements were made by other members of the family, I know when I went in to ask questions Sarah was extremely helpful and understanding. She provided reassurance to me and also little packs to help explain the process to my 3 children. The funeral itself was conducted with respect and dignity and I think my Nan would have most certainly approved of the send off she received and the care and compassion shown to her family.

I want to thank John Knowles at Broughton for all the help, support and care they gave me when my Mum passed. From the first phonecall they showed compassion and understanding Nothing was too much.

Their staff and service need recognition and I will never forget their care.

John kept me informed on the day of everything that was going to happen and suggested things to ease our burden. We used Fiona, a celebrant recommended to us by John for the service and she w
