Everyone we worked with—from the funeral arranger in the office to the funeral director on the day—was helpful, respectful, efficient, and warm. Everything ran smoothly, and the family were very pleased with the arrangements, which helped make a difficult day feel meaningful and special.
★★★★★
Bernadette what an amazing lady you are. Honest, sympathetic, understanding and genuinely caring. You are credit to the company you work for. Thank you for all of your help and patience with us. You made something which is really difficult to deal with perfect and easy for us at an unimaginably tragic time. Thank you from all of the Martins family x x
★★★★★
Bernadette at Kensil Rise was both sympathetic and professional throughout. I had to bury my mum followed by my dad...She helped me all the way as I was overwhelmed with it all. Amazing lady. Also Shaun was such a lovely kind person who went above and beyond his role. They were exceptional. Nonox

Bernadette and her team provided us with a fantastic service when we had to arrange the funeral of our mother. Nothing was too much trouble, Bernadette was very courteous, compassionate and very professional and we will be forever grateful for her help. My brother wanted to be totally involved with everything and all the team respected that. Thank you to Sam and her team who made the actual day of the funeral run smoothly. As a family we would definitely recommend them. Elizabeth
★★☆☆☆
The staff that picked up my father we're very respectful and patient. Id give them alone 5 starts. However this was not the case when dealing with Bernadette at the funeral home. Things we've had before can't fit through doors, the range of coffin or caskets was limited to what we could have according to her, when I know I'VE had 2 in a plot before. If we have had it before then why not again. Instead of checking with the cemetery she told us what she wanted us to hear, she finally decided to call the cemetery and could not answer to questions to why we can't have what we had before. OH YEAH,
