We cannot thank Kelly enough for the care, compassion, and professionalism she showed while helping us arrange my sister’s funeral. From the very beginning, she guided us through every step with such kindness and understanding, making an incredibly difficult time feel a little more manageable.
Kelly went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled with dignity and respect. Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and she was always available to answer questions or offer reassurance when we needed it most. Her attention to detail and genuine empathy truly made a difference to our family.

Kelly was an amazing support emotionally and practically on arranging the funeral for my husband. Her attention to detail and getting things right was excellent. Her respect for John in the chapel of rest was outstanding as was her care for us as a family.
We had a motorcycle hearse which they organised with us. Toni, on the day was fantastic also and they organised a perfect route for johns last journey on this earth. Thank you all. Lesley

She was down to earth, honest, worked with integrity and was personable throughout. Our family had never organised a funeral before, but Kelly and her team were key in demystifying the whole process.
We would also like to shout-out Bill, who acted as the funeral d

We can’t thank Ashdown Funeral Services enough, especially Kelly, for all their kindness and support during such a difficult time. Kelly was incredibly understanding and patient, explaining everything clearly and guiding us step by step through the arrangements.
Everything was handled with such care and compassion, and the service was beautiful. We’re so grateful for the warmth and professionalism shown — it truly made a hard time a little easier. Thank you, Kelly, and the whole team.
