Thank you to Sam for all of her help, patience and understanding. Under such difficult circumstances Sam and the team at Gillmans provided us with all the help we needed, making sure that we were updated every step of the way and making the process of saying goodbye to a loved one that little bit easier.

Thank you. A wonderful service provided by this team. With a special thanks to Michelle S. Such a warm and friendly person with real empathy. Made a sad time for our family at Christmas a lot less painful than it might have been using someone else.

We were referred to Gillman funeral services by Pride Planning Funeral Services.From the initial contact Gill, Beryl, Tony and all the staff, demonstrated warmth, care and empathy towards the family. Thus supporting us and paying attention to the finest of details to ensure that our mum received a dignified and honourable send off.Also, Gill and Beryl went the extra mile to make certain that the needs and requests of the family were met, in particular how our mother was made comfortable and rested peacefully in the chapel of rest.The high standard and presentation of our beloved mother's funeral also grabbed the attention of not only the attendees and mum's church, but also passerbys who made signs of respect, stood still at road sides, including those who attempted to video or take pictures as the procession passed by.Thank you Gillman's Funeral Services for providing such an excellent and professional service, which eased the pressure off our whole family and enabled the mum's funeral to take place smoothly, making the loss of our beloved mother a peaceful and memorable occasion.Thank you All.

Gill has been absolutely fantastic during our family's most difficult period, the service provided has been outstanding and our dear departed sister would have approved of the great send off. Our family thanks you greatly for the support given by Gillman Funeral Services.
