Our funeral home in Letchworth has recently been refurbished to give you a comforting experience when you visit us. All of our facilities are maintained to the highest standards, such as our beautiful Mercedes fleet, which you are welcome to choose for the funeral procession. We also have a chapel of rest for you to spend time with your loved one before the funeral.

We cater for all faiths, cultures and personal preferences. We are local to several churches, as well as Sri Guru Singh Sabha Gurdwara, North Hertfordshire Memorial Park and Crematorium and many more. Whatever kind of service you feel is most fitting, we will always be able to help you.

The wellbeing of people in our community is paramount to us, which is why we host many events such as bereavement groups, coffee mornings, funeral plan awareness days, and much more.

Clare, Chris and the team have been brilliant supporting me and the family in arranging mum's funeral.

Nothing was rushed or too much trouble, they listened and gave great advice in a very professional and personal fashion.

The team on the day of mums funeral were great, mirroring the service in the run up to the funeral.

They made the day special and support us as a family really well.

Very well organized funeral arrangements. Chris at the Letchworth branch is a credit to the company
with nothing too much trouble for him and he was always very courteous and polite.
I have still to arrange the interment of the ashes with Chris and I am sure he will guide me through this in his very professional and understanding manner. Special thanks to Judi who conducted a wonderful service at the crematorium.

I would highly recommend this branch to all.

The service we received was first class. All our questions were answered swiftly and the attention to detail was excellent. Chris handled everything for us prior to and after the funeral. Nothing was too much trouble and he made a very emotional situation for us (following the loss of our mum) so much easier. On the day of the funeral, Steve made everything go smoothly and allowed us to concentrate on our grieving. Again the service and attention to detail from Steve and his team was excellent. Nothing was to much trouble. it really was appreciated.
I can't praise Crouch's enough, thank you from us all for your service and dedication.

My wife passed away in the early hours of Wednesday morning, 10th March 2021. From the time that evening that E H Crouch removed her body to their mortuary to my delivery home after her funeral on 7th April 2021; the staff treated both of us with the utmost respect and dignity.
I would single out our funeral arranger and funeral director in particular,for praise in the way that they did their jobs with quiet dignity and appropriately gentle humour. God bless you all.
Response from E H Crouch Funeral Directors
Thank you for sharing your views with us on your online review. We know how special each person is and aim to convey this in all aspects of our work from the arrangements to the day of the service. It means a great deal when people take the time to share their experience and to highlight individuals in the team who have made a difference.
Rating 5.0
The professionalism of the team is clear to see. My link, Chris, guided me through the process, which is difficult in normal times, but even harder at this Covid period. He was calm, thoughtful and effective.

A key example of Crouch's professionalism was the last minute substitute of the funeral director on the day, as he was involved in a car accident. Clare (the business manager) stepped in and I would never have known. Her attention to our needs was excellent.

We would like to thank E H Crouch for the service they provided for all our family at a very difficult time for us. We all felt that they totally understood our needs all the way through from the time they collected John from our home up to and including his funeral. We felt also that he was treated with the dignity he deserved and we trusted them to look after him the same way during his stay with them.
We would have no hesitation in recommending E H Crouch to anyone we know who found themselves in the same situation

E H Crouch have been nothing but professional, sensitive and helpful during this experience for me and my family.
They have always been at the other end of the phone, answering all our questions, helping with whatever needed doing and just generally being really supportive. Nothing ever seemed too much to ask and on the day of my grandmothers funeral, they made the day go as nice as possible. We truly are grateful.

We have used E H Crouch over a number of years and most recently for our Mother's funeral in June, they were exceptionally caring and thoughtful throughout. Even to the point of adding a personal touch and wearing either a peach tie or scarf as this was her favourite colour. It made such a difference to the whole event to see this vibrant splash of colour worn by the whole congregation in some form or other, and to honour our mother in this way. They take care of you from the very beginning, and go through everything in detail and will answer any questions or concerns that you have. We are still being assisted today, to finalise the last stage for us, adding her name to the plaque.
Thank you for all your valued help.
