What people say
★★★★★ What an amazing company I trusted them with my son and what an amazing team you have so compassionate and very caring and very helpful at the hardest time. Thank you Jean and Tim for looking after us as a family
★★★★★ I would highly recommend Simply Funerals. Jean at the Portsmouth office provided efficient and compassionate service to arrange my late mum's cremation. It was very useful to access their 24-hour helpline which enabled immediate liaison with the hospice on a Sunday morning when my mum passed. The pricing is also competitive compared to other local funeral directors.
★★★★★ Recently used Simply funerals for the funeral of my late father. First time I’ve ever had to deal with anything like this was made a lot easier with the support and professionalism of Jean from Simply funerals. Jean was very sympathetic and understanding, she explained the whole process and what was involved was supportive through every step of the way. Thank you again Jean.
★★★★★ Loosing all family members suddenly over the past 3 years and during covid/lockdown.. Jean helped me arrange my Grandad’, Dad’ and Nan’ funerals making it as less stress free for me as possible and helping me with all arrangements. Jean is very caring and understanding and even makes you laugh and is always willing to listen to you even if it’s just a chat you need, Jean is so helpful and makes a devastating time a lot easier to deal with and remains professional at all times. Highly recommend.
★★★★★ Jean was extremely helpful with arranging my late sisters funeral recently. Chose the simple way with no service as such as felt the right thing to do. We're having a memory day for my late sister at a later date.
Thanks again Jean, you made a very difficult time so much easier..
