What people say

Paul and the team at Arthur Gresty were outstanding. Our Mum died back in November and with no plans for her funeral, the task ahead was intimidating. The pressure you feel to organise the perfect funeral is frightening, and for us, it was our Mum’s funeral. A woman who dedicated her life to us - she deserved the best. Well I can say without any hesitation, Arthur Gresty delivered the best. Me and my sisters genuinely wouldn’t have changed a thing. From the respectful handling and care of our Mum at the Funeral Home, to the professionalism on the day of the service. Paul and the team were incr

The whole team were amazing, friendly, compassionate and helpful. Anthony in particular was outstanding and made the whole process much easier with his care, empathy and attention to detail.

It's hard to put into words what a comfort and a truly professional 1st class caring approach all of the staff at Grestys gave me and my family, in the past 2 weeks, following our dear Mother's passing away. They have been like an extended family. Always there to listen. Nothing was too much for them. They have been there since day one and they were exactly the same when my Father passed away in 1994. We would never go to anyone else and we have the peace of mind in knowing that they will be there again, when such a sad event occurs again in the future. Mike, Jean and all of your colleagues, y

Gresty’s did such an outstanding job from my Mum’s passing to the funeral. Every contact we had with them was so pleasant despite the circumstances, and the staff were always so kind in greeting us upon visiting to see Mum (especially Helen). They even made the effort to allow us to visit on Sundays when they aren’t usually open- top notch service. Thank you for taking such good care of Mum, the attention to detail you paid particularly towards the end made the experience truly special for my family. On the day of the funeral everything went brilliantly smoothly and all the staff were friend

My wife and wonderful mother to our children died unexpectedly from Heart failure a few weeks before Christmas. Anthony and his team were absolutely perfect from our initial contact to an absolutely perfect service. It was so important to me to give her the best, she would have been absolutely amazed with the dignity, respect and service we received.
