Egrette Rudder arranged our mother’s funeral from start to finish with such sensitivity, kindness and professionalism. At what was an incredibly sad and difficult time for our family, she was an absolute pleasure to deal with and made everything feel calm, thoughtful and beautifully organised.
Nothing ever felt like too much trouble, and we were extremely grateful for the care and attention she gave to every detail.
We would also like to mention Daniel, the Funeral Director on the day, who was simply first class. He conducted everything with great dignity, warmth and professionalism and helped make the day as special and seamless as we could possibly have hoped.
We cannot thank Egrette, Daniel and the whole team enough for the compassion and support they showed our family.

I cannot speak more highly about the service that I received from W S Bond in Chiswick when my aunt passed away. Egrette was kindness personified as she helped me through a very difficult time. I’m very grateful.

All the staff were extremely helpful and caring. They kept in touch all the time to inform about and discuss arrangements. The printing of the Order of Service was especially well done.

Bereavement and grief affect people in different ways. There's no right or wrong way to feel. The NHS website has advice and places to go for support.

If you get certain benefits you may be eligible for the Funeral Expenses Payment. You can find out more, check your eligibility, and apply on the GOV.UK website.

There are government organisations that need to know when someone dies. Tell Us Once is a service that lets you report the death to most of them in one go.
