Thank you to Cooper & Son who helped myself and my mum plan my father's funeral. From Paula's patience, understanding and thoughtfulness going through the initial stages of the funeral to the gentlemen (Damian & Co) who looked after Dad at the Church and crematorium.

I simply cannot thank Paula enough for the care, compassion and understanding that she showed my sister and I when we were organising the details of our Dad's funeral recently. She really went above and beyond to make, what initially seemed a very overwhelming and difficult task, into a manageable and easy step by step experience for us both. The numerous cups of tea were very much appreciated too! The day itself went seamlessly and the attention to detail by all the staff was impeccable. We could not have asked for more from the team and everyone that attended the funeral said that you all did our lovely Dad proud! I would not hesitate to recommend your services and once again I can't thank you enough!!!

Such warm, kind wonderful people who helped our family through a difficult time. Paula had time, warmth, patience and wisdom. She walked us through the process gently and with compassion. She arranged everything and coordinated the entire journey. We would also like to give thanks to the celebrant Andrea Oxlade who works alongside CPJ Field. Thank you so much CPJ Field, Charlie and Paula especially. Xxx Jenny, Paul and Family.

I cannot thank the Paula and the team enough for the exceptional care and compassion they showed to my mother in law and the entire family during such a difficult time. Paula took so much care straight away, even having the first meeting at home to help make everyone feel more comfortable. Nothing was ever too much trouble and every detail was handled with so much kindness. Paula guided us through each step of the process, taking the time to explain everything clearly and making sure we understood and felt comfortable with every decision. She listened to what was important to the family and made the process easy at such a difficult time. On the day itself, it was handled professionally and smoothly and helped take the worry out of the day. We couldn’t have asked for better support. I am so thankful to Paula for supporting my mother in law through this time, it made it just that little bit easier to have someone with such care and support.
