Rating 5.0
I received an excellent service at what was obviously a very difficult time.
The staff at A Seaward & Sons were very helpful. Everything was explained during the initial meeting and the day of the funeral went smoothly.
Contact was maintained leading up to the day of the funeral with all of my questions answered promptly and the order of service was tailored exactly as I wanted.
The flowers were beautiful and reasonably priced.
I think the funeral celebrant is actually an outsourced part of the service, but would like to say that he was excellent and probably rather under priced!
Response from A Seaward & Sons Funeral Directors

Throughout the service provided by Seaward & Sons was very supportive and informative but particularly on the day of the Funeral itself they were very considerate, dignified and professional and we were very pleased with all the arrangements.

Caroline and her team made what was a very distressing time for my family so much easier.  Her constant presence and support have been invaluable to me.
Throughout the whole process, whenever I was stuck or unsure, her "leave it with me and I'll see what I can do" attitude lifted a great weight from my shoulders.
From the very first phone call through to the funeral itself my path was smoothed and everything made simple and easy.
A. Seawards & Sons are everything you could ask for at a time like this and I highly recommend them.
Response from A Seaward & Sons Funeral Directors
It is comforting to know that the team were there to support you through this time and relieve some of the pressure through guidance and support.

Caroline carried out everything my late uncle requested in a very professional manner(covid 19 permitted ),she managed this even though I live over 200 miles away from London, giving me advise adding the finer touches; flower arrangements etc.
I could have not asked for anything more.
Neil managed the actual burial with compassion and is a credit to his profession.
My late uncles husband who he is now buried with also used A Seaward & sons ,which impressed me and my late uncle that we used them again.
Response from A Seaward & Sons Funeral Directors

The whole process from the start was respectful and helpful at a time when I really didn’t know what I was doing. Eileen guided not pushed.
Whenever I rang or visited, I felt nothing was too much trouble and during these Covid times the rules where different for the staff so it wasn’t an easy time for them either but all the safety measures were in place for customers and staff. The whole process was smooth efficient and beautiful on the day. The service was caring and friendly which made a very painful time bearable. Thank you A Seaward and sons.
Highly recommend. KQ

Very professional service
Everything explained clearly and sensitively by office staff and head pallbearer.
All our queries and questions quickly resolved.

A floral tribute was a lovely gesture.
