What families say about us
Rated 4.95 / 5 based on 126 reviews.
Rated 5/5
From our initial call to E Finch at the death of our Uncle right through to his life celebration service the staff that we met with, had telephone conversation with, Eleanor (Ellie) and Gail were remarkable in their support with the funeral arrangements, ensuring a seamless stress free process.
The care showed in the preparation of our Uncle's body was evident in the presentation for his final journey.
Much appreciation to Ellie, Gail and the team that supported our family to accompany uncle on his final chauffeur driven journey. A true display of their professionalism.

I’d like to thank Ellie and the team at E.Finch & Sons for making a very difficult time stress free and for helping our dad get the best send off possible. Their empathy, professionalism and expertise enabled our family and friends to focus on all the fond memories and how lucky we all were to have known and loved him.
Thank you.

Thank you for the arrangements you put in place for my late husband's funeral. From the beginning I was put at ease and what could have been a harrowing experience was in fact better than I expected. The day of the funeral went without a hitch. Your employees could not have been more helpful and I thank every one of them. I would recommend your services to anyone. Thank you.
