All of the staff were fantastic. Especially Sue, she made me feel at ease and more importantly supported during a very Sad and stressful time. I was in isolation first with my Son and then myself and Sue kindly dropped paperwork off to my home when I couldn’t go out. She helped me and guided me with all of my queries, and explained anything I didn’t understand. The funeral directors were excellent too, they turned up on time and gave us time we needed and explained everything to us on the day, they were really respectful. I would have no problem in recommending this funeral directors

Sue and Amy were amazing in their care of us, both before and during our dad’s last goodbye. They took a huge weight off our shoulders, which enabled us to grieve for our dad rather than us running around doing everything. They followed our wishes to the letter and I would highly recommend their services. A huge thank you to Sue, Amy and the team.

My experience with Hornchurch and Essex was second to none. The staff were all really helpful and caring and showed compassion and professionalism at all times. The office staff were excellent and the day went as well as we hope it would. These things are never easy but they made everything run as smoothly as possible, for which l was extremely grateful.
