Daniel Ross Funerals is an independent, family-run funeral directors based at Grace Mary House Funeral Home on Eachelhurst Road in Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands. The business is owned and managed by brother and sister Daniel and Sarah, who were drawn to the funeral profession following the personal loss of their niece, Millie Grace Mary. They trained under the guidance of an accredited fifth-generation independent funeral director, Mr Peter Gaunt, and have developed strong professional qualifications, with Sarah holding the Diploma of Funeral Directing awarded by the National Association of Funeral Directors.
Grace Mary House Funeral Home was opened in November 2009 and has since been extended in 2016 to include additional family rooms, a further Chapel of Rest, and improved care and preparation suites. Daniel and Sarah personally support every family, offering undivided attention with no time restrictions, and are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
The team prides itself on compassion, integrity, and a genuine personal service that sets them apart from larger funeral chains. They cater for a wide range of needs, from simple direct cremations to elaborate bespoke funerals, and have developed expertise in repatriation, non-religious services, and bereavement support. Recommended by the Good Funeral Guide, Daniel Ross Funerals has built an enviable reputation within the Sutton Coldfield community and surrounding areas.
"Sarah and Daniel were wonderful during a very difficult time. They were kind, caring, respectful and on hand whenever we needed them, throughout the planning process, on the day of my husband's funeral, and beyond."
— Jo Dukes (about Sarah & Daniel)
"Daniel & Sarah exude warmth and compassion and guided me through everything I needed to do. They helped make the funeral as pain free as possible and I can't thank them enough for that."
— sylvia jones (about Daniel & Sarah)
"As soon as I met Sarah and Daniel I knew my mum was in safe hands and would be looked after with care and dignity. I couldn't imagine using anyone else."
— Elaine (about Sarah & Daniel)
"Can there be joy in the midst of sorrow? Well yes - it was definitely a joy to work with Daniel & Sarah. Arrangements were meticulously planned and seamlessly executed. It was a real comfort to know that with so many other things to think about, the main event was in such safe hands."
— Jeremy Stubbs (about Daniel & Sarah)
"They handled every detail—including the choir, the church arrangements, and the videographer—along with many thoughtful touches that we hadn't even thought of. They covered everything so we didn't have to worry about a thing. They gave my father the best send-off possible, and we felt guided and supported every step of the way."
— samantha smith (about Sarah & Daniel)
"It really touched us all, making us feel like Dad was royalty. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts, for making our heartbreaking day, special in ways that we never anticipated."
— Nicolas Georgiou (about Daniel & Sarah)
