Dawe Brothers kindly took care of Mum when she passed away in October 2025. I found them extremely helpful, sincere and caring. As an ex-soldier I can say that the team they deployed to support Mum’s burial at Humber Woodland of Remembrance did themselves and Mum proud. Their turnout, bearing and dignified demeanour was spot on. Well done and many thanks.

All the staff involved with my mums funeral were respectful, they made sure as a family that we was looked after on the day, we was not rushed and were asked if we was happy with everything on the day. I can’t thank you enough for the amount of respect and understanding/patience you had. You are all a credit to your company.
