About our Richmond funeral home
T H Sanders & Sons Funeral Directors in Richmond are here to give careful guidance and uncompromising compassion to you and your family during your time of need. We will do everything we can to make this difficult a little easier for you.
We welcome families of all faiths and cultures into our care, and our funeral home is located close by to the places of worship for many different religions. No matter what kind of funeral you want to honour the life of your loved one, we will always be able to help.
Our Richmond funeral home is part of the rich heritage of our local community. It was the first of many funeral homes opened by Thomas Henry Sanders, who is renowned for his impeccable services and kind values. Our funeral home was blessed by the Vicar of St John's Church when it opened on 21st September 1937.
Here is a description from The Richmond and Twickenham Times from when our Richmond funeral home was first built:
"From outside, the brickwork of the new building harmonises with the older part, while the central tower and the plain cross in the brickwork are reminiscent of church architecture... Every night a warmly tinted light shines from the tower... regulated to start earlier as the days grow shorter, so that loved ones will not seem to have been forgotten and left in darkness."
We are always here for you 24 hours a day, so please reach out to us whenever you need to talk.

Having never had to plan a funeral before, I was really daunted about the process. However Amy at TH Saunders made the process easy, not stressful, choices but not loads of choices, which in my opinion is important. She was also kind, honest, reassuring and dignified. The service was conducted by a recommended chaplain it absolutely perfect for our family.
We were all so sad to lose our family member but I am so relieved he had a good send off and this was all down to Amy and all the team at TH Saunders.

Excellent service, highly recommended. All the staff I encountered were courteous and professional. The options for the funeral were clearly set out in the company’s brochure and all costs made clear. Amy, from the Richmond office, helped me make informed decisions and her natural empathy offered comfort at a difficult time.

Amy made what was the most difficult few weeks of our lives that little bit more bearable. She was warm, empathetic and professional, and went above and beyond to ensure we were happy and that our Father was treated with the utmost respect and care.
We were so impressed with T H Sanders, on the day of funeral they ensured everything went smoothly and we felt we were in ‘safe hands’.
Thank you, for helping us in our darkest of days.

My family member’s funeral wasn’t as complicated as some can be, but it felt complicated when trying to work out what steps needed to be taken. Amy in Richmond stood far above the other funeral directors I’d contacted because from the first call she didn’t hesitate to take action to help me and secure my wishes for funeral timing (even when she didn’t have to, as I was just enquiring at that point). Her kindness and willingness to help through this tough time shone through, and was consistent throughout the lead-up to the funeral. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Amy/TH Sanders & Sons.
