"We could not have found a more sympathetic and genuinely caring person in Tansy, to help us with the arrangements for my mother's funeral and the subsequent interment for her back with my father in Birmingham."
— Martin Wye (about Tansy)
"I cannot express enough how totally amazing, compassionate, caring and helpful the whole team have been. Taking such amazing care of him during his time with them. Thank you all, from a very grateful daughter."
— Wendy Cross
"The small details Sam and Ian added that we hadn't thought about, blew us away. We cannot thank them enough for everything they did to help us give my father the send off he truly deserved."
— Laura Churcher (about Sam, Ian)
"Tansy took time to get to know me and all about my late Mum. She then matched the perfect Celebrant to conduct the service for me. I was kept informed every step of the way and was guided gently to making decisions that suited my Family. Having never had to organise a funeral before I was terrified — I am just so thankful that I chose T W Boorman."
— Gill Knight (about Tansy)
"From the moment I made contact with Tansy at TW Boorman, it was a weight off my shoulders. I will be forever grateful for all that Tansy and the team have done at this really difficult time. Arranging a funeral for my young partner was something I never envisaged happening, but Tansy was able to go through the whole process and arranged a wonderful celebrant to officiate the funeral."
— Natalie Grover (about Tansy)
"Nothing was too much to ask for, even doing a last minute change to dress Papa in the suit he wore for my wedding. If I could give more stars, I would. Thank you T W Boorman for making this difficult time a million times easier."
— Lauren Danguien-Wilson (about Sam, Laura)

Really pleased with the kind, considerate and overall professionalism portrayed with T W Boorman Funeral Services we dealt with Tansy through the whole process and she made it as smooth as possible making sure that everyone's wishes were considered.

Sam, Tanzy, Anita and Ian were outstanding when helping us arrange my father's funeral. The whole process was relaxed and respectful. The small details Sam and Ian added that we hadn't thought about, blew us away. We cannot thank them enough for everything they did to help us give my father the send off he truly deserved.

We used TW Boorman to look after Mum when she had passed away and to take her to the Crematorium for us to say our final goodbye. Tansy in the Tonbridge office was my primary contact and she helped me with the practical arrangements and ensured that everything was in place for the cremation. Tansy's professionalism and helpful manner throughout as we subsequently fine tuned the arrangements were much appreciated and she was a pleasure to deal with. The day of the funeral was very well managed by Ian and his team who showed absolute courtesy, respect and professionalism and everything went to plan. The coffin was smoothly and professionally delivered to the front of the Chapel of rest and my only observation for future funeral's would be that greater consideration should be given to the the relative height differences between the individual pall bearers.

I used T W Boorman to arrange my Papa's funeral. Everyone I spoke to were friendly, professional and calm. Sam and Laura were both incredible, going out of their way to make sure that I got everything I wanted for the service. Nothing was too much to ask for, even doing a last minute change to dress Papa in the suit he wore for my wedding. If I could give more stars, I would. Thank you T W Boorman for making this difficult time a million times easier

Superb, Dealing with a funeral has been a challenge for me, however , the support I have received from the team has been exceptional. They make it clear that Boorman’s role is to enable you to offload the stress from the situation, which they did. I would strongly recommend them.
