The member of staff I dealt with was warm and friendly, compassionate and knowledgeable. I was talked through the fundamental processes of funeral arrangements and supported to make informed decisions. No request was too much trouble. I did not feel rushed, or pressured to purchase any additional services. A seamless operation at a difficult time. The arrangements culminated in the perfect celebration! Thank you.

The service provided for my mother (Pat Crew) was considerate,sensitive and extremely professional. The level of support provided by Charlotte (Epping Office) and the celebrant was exceptional and I feel that I have made new friends.

From the start of the process to the funeral the professionalism of the staff at Poultons of Epping has been exemplary. Nothing was too much to ask, right down to leaving a hairbrush and asking if mum's hair could be brushed once she was dressed. Whatever we wanted to put in the casket with mum was always accomodated (as long as it was allowed, no metal). Mum was looked after with care and dignity. Clare was amazing so calm and professional with an enormous amount of empathy and care for us as well as mum. The whole process was explained to us, we were asked what it was we wanted and given full explanations along the way. If there were any changes we wanted we could do so without any fuss. We did a lot of the organisation ourselves like flowers and eulogy plus the order of service but you can ask them to do this for you. The day of the funeral was very professionally completed and all of the gentlemen that attended from Poultons were smart, kind, patient and curteous. The funeral went well and then we had the after care from Clare and her staff, they called to see how we were, they were genuinely caring and supportive. The offices and chapel of rest are clean and bright. I cannot speak highly enough of their professionalism and caring throughout the whole process.
Response from D C Poulton & Sons Funeral Directors
