We are completely dedicated to helping families plan, organise and arrange a funeral that is relevant, personal and meaningful to both family and friends.
Making funeral arrangements can often be a daunting prospect for the family or friends of the deceased. We believe that the funeral should of course be designed to honour the life of the person who has died.
As a result, we have received numerous testimonials from our clients, a sample of which are featured on this page:
Testimonials:
“It does not seem almost a month ago that we all gathered to say goodbye to J. Family and friends still agree that it was a strangely beautiful day, and beneficial to all of us in our various states of shock and grief. K – J’s friend, thanked us for ‘the proudest moment of his life’ – and it was clearly important to many others that J. had a ‘hands-on’ farewell. Thank you for that.” S.D. Frampton on Severn.
“We would never, ever have done it like this without you” S.R.
“It was a deeply emotional time, a time of healing through which you guided us in the most gentle and supportive way. We are most grateful” I.C.
“Once again a big thank you from me and from all in the family, esp. the old man! It really worked for him! This morning he said “I wonder what the stuffy people thought of it!” with a mischievous chuckle….giving it his approval….so we managed to bring the opposites together and all were honoured.” L
“My family and I would like to thank you and your company for the way that you handled the interment of my wife’s ashes on Monday last. It wasn’t a day that I had been looking forward to, but after I felt at ease that it had finally been done. K and I both agreed that your resume of E’s life and character was done with compassion and sympathy, although you hadn’t met her; also the reading of the poem was perfect, and seemed to reflect the spirit of the day. Our thanks again, and we hope to see you on perhaps a happier occasion.”
“A rather belated note to say thank you for your help in arranging Mum’s funeral. You listened to all our requests, and responded sensitively and accurately; you helped us make decisions when we dithered, and were very patient. On the day, your organization was well planned and unobtrusive. Your choice of other members for your team was great. It was a great funeral. Thank you.” C.G. Kings Stanley.
“From the first few word we exchanged on the telephone, it was clear that Family Tree were the people to take care of everything. They dropped round a few minutes later, very quickly understood what I had in mind, and artfully made the necessary arrangements. Without their reassuring presence, sensitivity and professionalism, the celebration would not have been the magnificent occasion that it was.” W.R. Stroud, from his published tribute to B’s life “Then Shall You Truly Dance”
“Thank you again for looking after us so beautiful as we arranged Dad’s funeral. We could not have been in better hands. We were able to put all our trust in you and you made it a remarkably special day.” J.C. Avening.
“Thank you once again for all your care, support and concern during the past couple of weeks.” V.W. Chalford
“Instead of it being a very sad and stilted occasion, it seemed to me a very natural progression from a very happy life to a well earned rest. Your kind way of steering us all in the right direction, and ensuring that things ran smoothly without a lot of fuss was very much appreciated. It was very pleasing for us all to be able to play our part under your quiet guidance.” V.C Nailsworth
“We want to say how fortunate we feel to have had the pleasure of meeting you, and how confidently we feel that our wishes will be met.” E.L and B.J. Painswick.
