"Because of both Caz and Kathryn we were able to plan the most unique and perfect send off for Dad which we will remember forever. Caz provided Dad with such dignified care and treated him with the utmost respect which was apparent throughout. Words can't express how grateful we are. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts."
— sarah Bevis (about Caz & Kathryn)
"I visited the chapel of rest which I was dreading but it was a very peaceful setting in which I got emotional but Caz dealt with the situation sympathetically and professionally. The funeral was also a fitting tribute to my Father during these difficult COVID-19 times and I can't thank them enough for helping me to remember my father in such a lovely way."
— Louise Lusher (about Caz)
"She made us feel as though we were the only family and funeral she was dealing with. Nothing was too much trouble, she made a truly awful experience the best it could have been. My family and I will always be so grateful."
— Adele Goff (about Caz)
"When we lost my mum, I had to navigate the funeral arrangements with my dad, and then, within just six months, I faced the heart-wrenching task of arranging my father's funeral on my own. The team at J H Way, especially Caz, was there for me every step of the way. Everyone at J H Way, from the drivers to the celebrants were outstanding. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."
— Ange Betts (about Caz)
"Whenever I needed advice, guidance or just a hug, Caz was there for me. I would not have coped without Caz and team by my side. They ensured firstly my mum and then my dad, three years later, had the best send off we could ask for."
— Heather Baker (about Caz)
"I cannot thank Demelza and Caz at JH Way enough for the exceptional care, kindness, and compassion they showed my family during the heartbreaking loss of my brother Tim. They went above and beyond in every way, supporting us with warmth, patience, and genuine empathy throughout the entire process. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they treated Tim with the utmost dignity and respect, ensuring his final journey was perfect. We will be forever grateful for the love and care they showed our family at such a difficult time."
— Jasmine Summers (about Demelza & Caz)

Caz and her amazing team have looked after both my mum and dad after their passing. Their care, compassion, professionalism and dedication in every aspect of arranging their funerals, has been outstanding. They have supported, advised and carried both myself and my family through every step of the journey from initial contact all the way through the funeral arrangements, services up to collecting the ashes. Whenever I needed advice, guidance or just a hug, Caz was there for me. I would not have coped without Caz and team by my side. They ensured firstly my mum and then my dad, three years later, had the best send off we could ask for. I am truly grateful for everything they have done and can assure anyone reading this, that you can rely on the team to care for you and your dearly departed loved ones with 100% care and commitment. Heartfelt thanks to Caz, Demelza and team. Heather and family

I would just like to say how grateful I am to Demelza and the team at J H Way Funeral Services. We had a service in their private chapel and their care and attention to all the details was both comforting and reassuring during such a stressful time. They definitely "hold your hand " throughout the process and I would not hesitate to recommend them.

What an excellent service from beginning to end, delivered with sympathy and understanding by Caz and Demelza. We discussed at the beginning of the process whether to go to a crematorium but decided, after being given the options, to go to the chapel at JH Way instead with close family only, which is a small and very intimate room. We had a short 15 minute service there with the minister and the coffin and then went to the church for a celebration service while JH Way took the coffin to the crematorium. We have been to a crematorium for other funerals, but this way round seemed so much better for us - more personal. Whatever the choice, JH Way were with us every step of the way, making sure everything ran smoothly from the intitial home visit to the end. Really wonderful and I couldn't recommend more.

I cannot thank Demelza and Caz at JH Way Homes Funeral Home enough for the exceptional care, kindness, and compassion they showed my family during the heartbreaking loss of my brother Tim. They went above and beyond in every way, supporting us with warmth, patience, and genuine empathy throughout the entire process. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they treated Tim with the utmost dignity and respect, ensuring his final journey was perfect. Demelza and Caz are truly incredible at what they do, and we will be forever grateful for the love and care they showed our family at such a difficult time. Highly recommended

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and kindness we received from J H Way, during two incredibly challenging times. When we lost my mum, I had to navigate the funeral arrangements with my dad, and then, within just six months, I faced the heart-wrenching task of arranging my father’s funeral on my own. The team at J H Way, especially Caz, was there for me every step of the way, providing compassion and professionalism that made all the difference. Caz’s guidance, respect, and care helped me through an incredibly difficult period. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services. Everyone at J H Way, from the drivers to the celebrants were outstanding. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
