What people say

★★★★★
Would highly recommend Paul Pender and Son. Great staff, quirky surroundings and amazing service. Sarah was wonderful with explaining everything and organising. They were always at the end of the phone for questions and queries. On the funeral day the boys were amazing, talking me through what would happen next. Great time keepers and again great service. All very professional and respectful. Will use Paul Pender again in the unfortunate event of arranging a funeral. Also, the total price was actually a lot less than I expected.
★★★★★
I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks to all the staff at Paul Pender & Son for their compassion, warmth and care when my mother sadly passed away just before Christmas 2025. Truly an excellent service at a very difficult time. Visiting my Mum in the funeral home was a very emotional experience, but she looked so peaceful, as if she had just fallen asleep. Everyone at Paul Pender's was so supportive and kind. I can't recommend enough.
★★★★★
Paul and his team handled my Mum's funeral 3 years ago, so we didn't even consider going anywhere else when our Dad died. Jack has just the right amount of professionalism, empathy and humour to help a family when emotionally distraught. Sarah handled the organisation with efficiency and made sure everything we wanted carried out, did and all with ease. Nathalie the Celebrant, who was recommended by them supported us and delivered a wonderful service. Our family felt cared for during the whole process, so we would recommend using Paul Pender's in what, can be the most distressing time.
★★★★★
We as a family would like to thank Paul, Sarah and the amazing team, that worked along side Sarah for their kind and caring approach they gave our family, whilst we were going through one of the most heartbreaking times as a family dealing with the sadness and grief of losing our beloved Toni. The compassion the whole team showed while taking care of Toni from the day she arrived at Paul's until the day of the Service, you all went above and beyond our expectations. Between you all, you gave Toni the most beautiful and perfect Final Farewell. Thank you again Paul, Sarah and the Amazing team

Penders conducted my Dad's funeral. They did so with care and attention to detail. Personal service and nothing was too much trouble. We were anle to give him the traditional, dignified send off we wanted. 100% recommended for that most difficult time. Thank you
