What people say

★★★★★
Everyone has been so helpful and the support we have received throughout has been amazing. The attention to detail for my Uncle's funeral was very thoughtful and appreciated. They checked on our wellbeing throughout and a few days after too. Would definitely recommend their services to others and can't thank them enough.

I have recently lost my husband and the thought of having to plan his funeral was frightening. Some time ago my husband and I had taken out a plan for both of us, we had been paying into ... exactly for this very purpose ... I was so very pleased I had. I was a little bit wary that Dignity meant I couldn't choose a funeral director from my own town! However, I was not disappointed... far from it. The planning and implementation of the funeral was faultless and memorable. Every wish was carried out with dignity and professionalism. I have the utmost respect and I am indebted to DIGNITY & Meyne

I cannot thank Helen and all of the team for their care and respect that they showed my Dad and all of my family. From the minute they came out to us in the middle of the night and the recommendation of the lovely Celebrant who conducted the funeral. Their attention to detail was absolutely fantastic. A big thank you to the driver of the car who was so patient with us as we had an elderly dog in the car as well. I am so happy that the funeral plan that Dad had taken out allowed them to take control of the funeral and we were able give him the send off that he would have loved.

I cannot recommend highly enough the services of John Meynells in Aycliffe. From the first interaction I had within hours of my fathers passing they were fantastic. Tracey put all of us at ease and took us through the process. They looked after Dad really well, keeping us informed of everything and they were always at the end of a phone if we needed anything. The day itself was beautiful, our driver Maurice was lovely and the whole team looked after us so well. I have never had to go through anything like this before, but genuinely I cannot praise them enough, they made what was a difficult a

Losing my father is easily the hardest moment I've been through my entire life. A google review will never be able to display the amount of gratitude I have for Jackie at Meynell & Mason. From the get go she was kind, compassionate and so incredibly efficient. She did what was needed to proceed with the cremation of my father whilst adding that personal touch. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.
