G F Hunt Funeral Directors

When my wife Rosie died not long ago, my brilliant step-children sorted all of the funeral arrangements based on what we had told them was wanted. G F Hunt is local to my step-daughter so I think that was why they were chosen, but whatever the reason it didn't matter, these guys did an amazing job, from Clare in the office sitting and listen to me bang on various visits, to Trish on the day organising the many, many family members that were there and sorting Rosie's brothers to carry the coffin. All of the feedback I have had about you guys has been positive so in addition to my thanks on the day, have them again on here.

GF Hunts were so easy to deal with at such a sad time. We felt real compassion and understanding from the very begining. Clare she was brilliant and the showed care compassion and understanding. Nothing was ever to much trouble just amazing we couldn' t of wished for better. Michelle was also really good and very professional with a call the night before to reassure us all was in hand was very calming and kind. We are very grateful thank you to all involved.

Claire And Family.

Clare couldn't have been more empathetic. I was encouraged to contact her at any time during my grieving process, and I believe that to be sincere.

My husband's cremation and, by her recommendation, the venue for the Wake, were perfect.

Avoid this funeral directors at ALL costs. They are owned by the dignity group but show absolute NO dignity or respect. We were horrified at the horrendous way they treated my father when they came to our home to collect him. Two women were sent who were incapable of managing a dignified handling of my father. On being told the family did not want to see my deceased father carried out as we had said our goodbyes before they arrived we could hear bangs upstairs which distressed my mother so much she was panicking. We could hear them say how they were sweating and how he was breaking their back. Eventually they got him to top of landing and came downstairs and proceeded to say they could not manage and asked if one of us could help them get him downstairs. My 20 year old daughter had to help them stand up my father who died 8 hours previous and supported his head and shoulders whilst they strapped him in😨😱. She was mortified as my dad at peace image was ruined and this was her last goodbye. But it was even worse !!!😱they then disrespectfully bumped him down the step. THEN!!!!! As they said again they were sweating and my dad ( who had not ate or drunk for past 5 days and very thin!) was breaking their back my daughter ( and even a neighbour!!!!) had toget into the private ambulance and help lift him in!!!! The easy my poor deceased father was treated was DISGUSTING! They did quickly say sorry and usually it’s not like that but my dad deserved better than that! I would HATE for ANYONE to have to experience this and it’s left us traumatised. What’s even worse is after this ( even day after!) we did not even get a call to apologise or inform us all was ok other end. I was disgusted and this was SO UNDIGNIFIED!!! Indeed it was so bad we actually got another funeral director to go pick him up from hunts the next day and take him to them- indeed they have been amasing and were utterly shocked to hear our devastating experience. At what was the hardest time of our life where my poor dad left far too soon we were massively failed by dignity and hunts and even 8 days later no apology. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS FUNERAL DIRECTOR FOR YOUR LOVED ONE! their lack of respect and apauling treatment of my precious father was horrendous!

Hunts has just helped us organise Mum's funeral and managed everything beautifully for us. Special shout out to Clare who was kind, considerate and patient at a difficult time for us. I would definitely recommend them.
