Lisa and Steve and the team at E Hurton’s were wonderful. Their support and impeccable service at this difficult time were hugely appreciated. The professionalism of the celebrant Rachel meant that my father’s funeral service went without a hitch, and my father’s family and friends were able to celebrate his life in a respectful and beautiful ceremony. This meant so much to everyone there (both in the chapel and online).

A funeral is a difficult occasion to go through. My dad lost his wife of 55 years and we lost our mum. E Hurton & Son funeral directors seemed the right choice, and how right we were. Big thank you to Danielle who made the whole event something to cherish. Danielle was professional, respectful and a lovely.cresit to the company. No detail or request was too much. It was a perfect day worthy of my mum,dads wife. Im sure she was loving the ceremony from above. Thank you so much. Highly recommend if you are unfortunate enough to lose a loved one.
