Cooksley and Son was the obvious choice for our Dad’s funeral as our mum worked for them for a number of years when we were growing up. Mum, is still with us, but sadly has late stage dementia so, although she couldn’t take part in the funeral arrangements as such, she still had what she would have wanted for her beloved husband - his funeral arrangements taken care of by Cooksley’s.
As a family we were very impressed by the care, kindness and thoughtfulness shown to us throughout the whole funeral process, from initial arrangements and choices to the actual day. No question was a silly one, no request refused and all done whilst giving Dad the care and dignity he deserved.
We would wholeheartedly recommend Cooksley and Son to take care of a loved one’s funeral arrangements. They made a very difficult time a lot easier for us all; something we are very thankful for.
Many thanks to all concerned,
Carolyn and family

I had no prior knowledge of Cooksley and Son Funeral Directors Weston-super-Mare and made a random choice when I was asked to give a name by a care home when my husband became a resident - after his passing Cooksley and Son took him into their care and Anouska then took us into her capable hands taking us through every step of the way making the experience as stress free as possible with empathy and patience - we were also fortunate that Anouska lead the funeral cortege at the service adding that warmth and respect to his farewell that we had already seen - I would like to thank the whole team for their gentle compassion and professional approach to a very distressing and emotional time - I would recommend them to anyone needing funeral services and say once again thank you for your support respect and care
