My Dad passed away in September 2025 and during one of the most difficult times in our lives, Constable & Toop provided incredible care, professionalism, and compassion. From the first phone call to Angela at the Honor Oak Park Office to the final service, every detail was handled with thoughtfulness and respect. Everyone was so patient, always listening to our thoughts and stories and always available to answer our questions at any time. With an effortless manner they guided us gently through every step, making the process as smooth as possible. The way they honoured Dads memory felt truly personal and meaningful, and it was as if they had known him for years. We are so grateful for their support. You really are the epitome of a family run business, and you gave us peace of mind during a very emotional time. Kerri, Angela and the team – We would not hesitate to recommend Constable & Toop to anyone needing a first class, professional and very understanding company to handle your very individual service. A BIG HEARTFELT THANKYOU from our family.

The team at Constable and Toop were fantastic and very supportive. They guided my family and me throughout the planning of my mother’s funeral and burial. The stonemasons were also brilliant, producing a beautiful headstone and memorial. Thank you so much.
