My gramps passed away recently, I’d never had to arrange a funeral etc before but from the moment I rang the girls and said I wanted gramp taken into their care they were absolutely amazing. From that phone call to even now 2 months on. They guided me through the process every step of the way. Facilitated chapel visits sometimes even at last minuite and made sure gramps and our wishes were followed through to the very end. The professionalism, love care and compassion they show is outstanding. Nothing is too much trouble for them. The girls were there to listen when I needed to talk and showed genuine empathy. In the event I have to do this again I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. Thankyou will never be enough to show how my I appreciate these people.

Whilst losing my mam at such a young age I didn’t have a clue about the funeral process, the staff at John Davies and Sons were incredible throughout, explained absolutely everything and made my mams celebration of life everything we hoped for and more. A special thank you to Laura who navigated us through this life changing time and laughed along with us at the silly things my mam has done, all the quirky touches we wanted were met without any problems. I can’t thank them enough for all they have done for myself and our family. It takes very special people to be able to do their job and I can’t fault them one bit, amazing service providers. Thank you once again all.

You don`t relish the time when you have to use John Davies funeral services, but their professionalism, compassion and friendliness helped us have a very special day. They guided us through the whole process and made the day run very smoothly. They made some very special requests by the family happen on the day, and for that I will always be indebted to them. Thank you for a lovely and very special day.
