What families say

"As we were traveling from the US to lay our beloved father to rest in London, we were unfamiliar with local procedures, but David and his team made everything seamless, respectful, and comforting. They arranged for our father to be brought home for a private service, honoring our Hindu traditions with great sensitivity and care. The compassion, cultural understanding, and professionalism shown to our family went far beyond what we expected."

— Teemati Sharma (about David Lindsay)

"Evan is not only a great asset to D.A.Lindsay & Sons but a great asset to the Funeral Industry as a whole. David agreed to let me direct my Aunt's funeral, trusting me despite my own background as a Funeral Director of over 20 years — and Evan was a calming, knowledgeable presence on the day. We were so well looked after by this team, we couldn't have asked for more."

— Val Jones (about Evan Lindsay)

"A mother should never have to cope with her son's death but I cannot praise DA Lindsay enough. Every question and request was met with kindness and guidance. David arranged for a very kind celebrant, Grace, to take the service and she understood my son and his life, and what he meant to us all. A heartfelt thank you to all."

— Jill Miell (about David Lindsay)

"This is more than just a business — it's a family who genuinely supports yours through loss. In some of the hardest moments of our lives, they have been there with such compassion, care, and quiet strength. Every detail is handled with dignity and respect, and you never feel alone. Thank you, truly, from the bottom of my heart."

— D D D

"As you can imagine, it was an emotionally overwhelming time — Dave was guiding us through the loss of my dad, my mum's husband of 50 years. But he guided us through every step with patience, understanding, and a gentle approach that made all the difference. The personal touch he brought to the entire process meant more to me and my mum than words can express."

— alan boyle (about Dave)

"From the moment we met Evan, we felt completely safe and cared for. He answered our thousands of questions with so much patience and never once made us feel rushed, needy or like we were asking too much. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it and guided us through such a difficult process with genuine love and compassion. David brought such warmth, wisdom and perfectly timed humour that suited our mum's personality so beautifully — he even allowed us to place our own crystal in our mum's coffin, such a personal touch that meant so much to us."

D. A. Lindsay this funeral directors goes beyond and above when it comes to respect, and service, from the moment you have your meeting with them. We wanted the best for our mum and we had the best with D. A Lindsay. We thank you and your staff for making a difficult time a little easier for the family.

We honestly cannot recommend Lindsay & Sons Funeral Home enough. From the moment we met Evan, we felt completely safe and cared for. He answered our thousands of questions (ha!) with so much patience and never once made us feel rushed, needy or like we were asking too much. He was incredibly knowledgeable, wise beyond his years, and had the most gentle voice and calming, graceful energy. We have a very big family, and somehow Evan made every single one of us feel heard, reassured and confident that our mum was in the best hands. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was exactly how we wanted it and guided us through such a difficult process with genuine love and compassion. Meeting Evan’s dad, David, was just as lovely. We could immediately see where Evan got his compassion from. David brought such warmth, wisdom and perfectly timed humour that suited our mum’s personality so beautifully. He understood what “bespoke” really meant and even connected with us over our love of crystals, allowing us to place our own crystal in our mum’s coffin, such a personal touch that meant so much to us. Lindsay & Sons gave our mum the most beautiful care, dignity and respect, and we will be forever grateful. I genuinely couldn’t recommend them more. They are absolutely who I’d want looking after me when I pass on. 😇❤️

Sadly we've had to use this family run business 5 times in the last 3 years. They are fantastic, very welcoming, friendly at the most difficult and emotional time people have to go through. Dave is warm, compassionate, understanding and very accommodating to the familys wishes to ensure we gave our loved ones the best send off. Dealing with Dave, Evan & Holly made the funeral preparations stress free and wonderful. I would highly recommend using them, they are very professional and their fees are very reasonable too. We are a huge family and everyone said what friendly and warm man Dave is 🙂

I contacted Dave after being given his number from a close friend who has used his services several times. I am so very glad that I went with her recommendation because as soon as I meet Dave I felt totally at ease that he and his son would take the best care of my beloved brother. They were both kind, professional, patient, helpful and respectful. Their experience and knowledge was a god send guiding me through a very emotional time and I will forever be grateful. I would highly recommend them to everyone whenever the need arises and have kept their contact details in my phone for when my time comes.
