Christopher Stringer Funeral Directors

Did an excellent job of my mother's funeral. Mia in the office was kind, sympathetic and very helpful. She found a lovely vicar to officiate and a florist who did a wonderful coffin spray with my mother's favourite flowers, and she was able to advise on scattering ashes at sea. Very professional pallbearing on the day.

A heartfelt thank you to Christopher Stringer and the entire team for their patience, understanding, and gentle support throughout such a difficult time. Their presence was always there in a measured and understated way, quietly guiding and supporting us while remaining continually mindful of our family's grief. The kindness, compassion, and consideration shown throughout were evident at every stage and provided great comfort to us all. On behalf of our entire family, and especially from my brother's heart and soul, thank you for helping us give him the farewell he deserved.

At a difficult time, we found Chris to be kind, caring and considerate. He made us feel welcome and gave us time to think about what we wanted from the funeral. His staff, Mia and Carol, were equally as caring and patient with us and we could not have wished the funeral to have been better. Thank you, Chris.

From the first phone call to arrange a meeting with Chris to the actual funeral day, Chris and his team were absolutely brilliant. Carol initially talked through the order of things and sent through a really helpful checklist confirming what we had discussed and what I needed to think about. When we met Chris to discuss dates and further arrangements, he was kind and informative. By the time we left everything was in place. Paul, our celebrant was very helpful preparing the order of service and was very professional. A courtesy call on the day of the funeral was a nice touch to ensure we were ok. Everything went well, I would recommend Chris Stringer and his team without hesitation, they are fantastic.

We cannot thank the team enough for the care, respect and compassion they showed in looking after the most precious person in our lives, our beautiful mum. From the very beginning, they treated her with such dignity and respect, and that meant everything to us. They took the time to really listen, understand what mattered, and honour her life in a way that felt truly right for her and for all of us. The team’s attention to every detail, willingness to go the extra mile, and the calm, thoughtful way they guided us through each step made an incredibly difficult time feel far more manageable. They didn’t just organise a funeral - they helped us create a beautiful and fitting celebration of mum’s life, for which we will always be grateful. Thank you to all of the team for your kindness, care and compassion. We will never forget it.
