Mrs M.T
My Mother Heather, sister Jane and I would like to thank David, Anne and Alex for their amazing care and guidance in arranging Dad’s funeral. They have been acutely professional, yet at the same time compassionate, respectful and incredibly patient. Every aspect and option was carefully explained and carried out. We simply cannot thank you enough.
Mrs C.M
This company came very highly recommended to us by a friend who had used their services on two occasions. Having never organised a funeral before I was a complete novice, from the first moment I spoke with David I knew we were in good hands. I can highly recommend this family run service.
Mr C.L
Obviously, the fact you are needing to utilise the services of funeral director means it is highly upsetting and stressful time. David and his wife were absolutely brilliant. From initial contact to the day of funeral and arrangement of cremation, HC Townsend made it as stress free as possible. Thank you
