What people say

★★★★★
In the last 8 months we have had to call on Tranters to deal with the funerals of our parents. They have been wonderful at all stages of the process making an incredible difficult period bearable. They are very professional at the same time showing compassion and kindness. Would highly recommend them.
★★★★★
I would like to compliment team at Tranters & Son and especially Sharon, who pulled all the threads together so we could celebrate the life of my Mother. The Aston Hall Funeral Venue proved to be flexible enough to provide the perfect setting for our service. Also a thank you to Karen Perry the Officiant recommended by Sharon who helped us deliver a sincere, thoughtful and warm send off for my mother. All of this help and support was especially important for us as much of the planning had to be carried out remotely.
★★★★★
After the loss of our beloved Husband, Dad, Grandad: Dennis Brian Smith, and whilst in the midst of our grief, we found that the service we received from Tranters went above and beyond our expectations. They were kind, courteous and incredibly informative, supporting the whole family as we navigated through the pre and post funeral arrangements. They acted with the utmost professionalism throughout. Thank you

We chose L. Tranter & Son Funeral Directors for my late father, hoping for a caring and straightforward service. While everything was handled on time and with basic professionalism, the experience felt somewhat impersonal - not helped by the frequent reference to Mrs rather than Mr throughout despite correcting them on a number of occasions. There was a push toward “enhanced” options from the moment they collected my father (1:30 am in the morning) which made an already difficult time feel more transactional than compassionate. I just wish the focus had been more on care and support!
