The Team at WJ Winn’s have supported myself and my family through the loss of both my parents. The compassion, respect, dignity and care they have shown my parents and our family made a heartbreaking time so much easier. The service the team provided to my parents whilst in their care, leading up to, and during the ‘celebration of life service’ and cremation and aftercare was exemplary, extremely respectful and professional. I would not hesitate to recommend the services WJ Winn, should you need them in the most difficult of times. Special thanks to Debbie and Suzanne who went above and beyond to support us 🌹

Having used Winns in 2021 for my dad’s funeral we went back to them for mums.

We had the most attentive caring service from first call to after.

Everything was just as we asked nothing too much trouble, any changes sorted.

They arranged the flowers and accommodated our own ideas for how we wanted everything to go.

On the day there was no rushing at home before we left for the church, giving us time to even take mums beloved cat up to the coffin. Once at the church the guiding of mums grandchildren to escort her coffin into the church and then to the graveside was handled so nicely.

Arranging viewing for family members and taking a curl of hair for us (presented in little white bag) all so professional & with compassion.

Thank you Suzanne you made the hardest day beautiful

I could not fault the team at W J Winn, very professional and helpful. Suzanne and her team were so supportive, friendly and kind to all of our family at this very sad time, every moment ran smoothly and the extra touches, photo, and music provided were excellent. Thank you so much to all of the staff at W J Winn.

Thank you again, Jean Meigh and our family.
