We were greeted with sincerity and dignity and had our wishes listened to and discussed. Being the first time we have been involved in making arrangements for a funeral we were grateful for the advice and help. We were informed regularly as to what was happening and when, and on the day everything went very smoothly. Our thanks goes to all those involved especially Sarah who took our changes in her stride and remained calm, efficient and friendly.

Very caring reception in the office at Bognor. Attended to all the details with minimum of having to involve the family yet took into account all the family’s wishes. Unfortunate that the hearse was delayed due to road closure, but we weren’t rushed even though we arrived late. Staff took care of all the details. Would suggest if having a long journey to the crematorium the company allow time in case of unexpected delays. This was a 70 mile trip so likely to have odd delays which should be pre considered and extra time allowed. Can’t fault staff friendliness or consideration

Would thoroughly recommend-everything was dealt with in a sympathetic, understanding but completely professional way.
All went very smoothly and promptly and Sarah’s recommendations on certain things were much appreciated. Altogether a sad occasion made the very best it could be.

My family and I were extremely pleased with the professionalism and kindness shown during our recent bereavement. The only problem we encountered was when their Bognor office was closed and they had miscommunications between their other offices and, unfortunately, my father-in-law who had passed away was. in my opinion, left for too long in his daughter's front room. Apart from this I would have no hesitation in recommending Dillistone & Wraights to our friends and family. I would happily give them five stars.
