"The lovely lady at Winterton made a difficult task easier. The staff on the day were caring considerate and comforting and made things much easier to cope with they had time to wait listen and act to all the parts of the funeral and took total charge. Thank you again"
Mrs Cynthia F. October 2021
"Thanks very much for a fantastic service. It was polite, professional, efficient and caring. We could not have asked for a better experience at such a difficult time. Thanks very much to you all for being there for us and for being so helpful. Thanks."

"Organising a funeral from a distance was made very easy and professionally handled. From the start the firm was sympathetic and practical - much appreciated. Arrangements on the day were immaculate and the service was very fitting and felt personal. Highly recommended from us."
Dr Kelvin W. October 2021
"Great service from very sympathetic staff, from initial consultation to the funeral at a very difficult time. My wishes regarding my mother where always top priority. A full breakdown of all prices was very helpful in arranging the funeral. Would highly recommend."
Mr James M. October 2021
"I felt the arrangements were made with the utmost courtesy and respect. I felt supported and befriended by the lady I dealt with, she answered all my questions and was compassionate during a very difficult time. I was introduced to the lady who would be present on the day over the telephone (as I organized the funeral from a distance) and all I needed to know was carefully explained to me. The day itself was beautifully and sensitively managed. Thank you for making a difficult time so much easier."
Mrs Jayne S. October 2021
"All the staff were helpful and respectful. The funeral director and Celebrant were warm and considerate and put us all at ease. I felt listened to and nothing was any trouble. My Dad had taken out a funeral plan and would highly recommend one as it made the whole process much easier in a very stressful time."
