In every interaction, by phone or in person, each member of the staff always engaged
in a most warm and genuinely sympathetic manner...enquiring about my wellbeing, and offering to be of assistance, where feasible...ready to provide answers to my queries, then, or asap...very helpful in many respects. I especially appreciated the willingness to accept, respect and encourage the preference of my daughters and I to develop our own unique Order of Service, resulting in a pleasing and memorable "Send Off" of our beloved Cynthia. Thank you, much. We will certainly, happily recommend Ian Clarke Funeral Directors at such time such service is required.

The girls were fabulous, empathy & understanding during a difficult time for myself & my sister. Service was just what mum would have wanted. The process took a huge strain away from us & we are very grateful for a lovely send off during what are very difficult times to work in.

We used the Sale Moor branch and I cannot recommend them highly enough. They stopped outside my husbands local darts team pub, did the local newspaper message, and found us a humanist for the service. They were very knowledgeable and helped with lots of things, I hadn't even thought about. Many thanks to them, the day went very smoothly even in this difficult time.

We recently had the need to plan a funeral and used Ian Clarkes Funeral Directors. We would recommend them to anyone else in the same situation.
They were there for us every step of the way, explaining what would happen and what we needed to decide.
Throughout all of this, they were compassionate friendly and approachable and nothing was to much trouble.
We worked with them to ensure that all of the details were perfect including some last-minute changes. We were able to give our loved one a send-off that was personal to us.
Arranging a funeral is a difficult and emotional process but they were able to make it as easy as possible and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Many thanks to Sue and Yvonne for their compassionate but extremely professional help with the arrangements for my mother's funeral.They made the entire process very easy and gave advice where necesssary that helped make it a celebration of mum's life rather than a sombre event.Would certainly recommend their services to others.

We have sadly had to use Ian Clarke’s services twice in less than 3 years - losing both of our parents suddenly in their 50s. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff who truly do go above and beyond, and are extremely special people. They made an extremely painful time a little more bearable. The funeral itself ran so smoothly - Sue is wonderful at her job and we truly cannot thank her enough.
Response from Ian Clarke Funeral Directors
I am glad you chose Ian Clarke Funeral Directors to take care of your parents. It makes a difficult time seem a little easier and I am pleased we were able to provide you with the support and guidance needed on both occasions.

From the moment Staff at Ian Clarke Funeral Directors took over arrangements for my mothers funeral, my mind was at ease.
The professionalism and caring,compassionate manner, we all as a family experienced was unbelievable.
To know that mum was in such hands was just priceless.
Every special request I wanted was dealt with immediately.
Any time I called I was treated so kindly and considerately.
On the day itself, I felt so much calmer than I thought I would, because I knew everything would go smoothly.
To be invited to the Remembrance Service was very special. I was able to collect mum's ashes at the service and bring her home with me.
A most difficult and sad time was made so much easier and has certainly helped with the grieving process. Thank You.

Sue, Yvonne and Sarah's advice and hard work led to a lovely farewell service for my father-in-law. It was a perfect send off and he would have thoroughly approved.

The Ian Clarke staff were most helpful and supportive throughout what was a very difficult period for the whole family. Their caring, thoughtful approach throughout the process of arranging the funeral for our late Mother made things at lot easier than they might otherwise have been.
On the day, the Funeral arrangements went off without a hitch and we received comments from a number of family members and friends that they thought that the ceremony was a fitting send off for our Dear Mother.
Many thanks to the Ian Clarke staff from all of us.
