Reviews for Bayley Brothers Funeral Directors

Rated 4.88 / 5 based on 34 reviews.

Rated 5/5

From the moment we walked through the door right up until the funeral, Bayley Brothers have been amazing. We had phone calls checking on us & seeing if we needed any help with anything. Their attention to detail was fantastic. I must say they went above & beyond and gave dad the send off he truly deserved.

Thank you S. A. Evans Hereford and particularly a big thank you to Tracy for your kindness and professional support in arranging my husband’s funeral. I can honestly say that nothing was too much trouble for anyone at S.A. Evans, First class thank you all.

Rated 5/5

Recently, I unexpectedly had to arrange my mothers funeral and I can’t praise S A Evans Funeral Directors enough. They were compassionate, thoughtful and understanding. They explained the process clearly and gave me all the advice I needed. The service was just what the family wanted and everyone who attended commented on how lovely it was.
