What Our Families Say About Us

Words cannot express my deepest thanks to you, Daryl & Harry for all you have done for me and my family. Everything you have done was carried out in a professional, compassionate, sensitive, caring, and friendly manner. Dee, we are very, very grateful to you and shall never forget your love and kindness.

V.E. Stratton - September 2018

With sensitive and consummate professionalism throughout, the team at Gubbins supported us with all the planning and liaison and practicalities. We could trust them to see us through, and their recommendations were excellent and experienced with the uncertainty of numbers attending that come with a funeral. The financial side also was clear, reasonable and up-front with no pressure to over spend. I unreservedly recommend the Gubbins team on every level.

S. R AND FAMILY COADS GREEN - MARCH 2025

Dear Denise, just to say thank you to you all for everything you did for us and for looking after Dad so well. Forever grateful.

G.S. Bude - January 2023

Thank you for all your hard work on our mother and Aunt’s funeral, you and your staff are a credit and your work is very much appreciated.

K, I and Family Stratton - August 2023

From the very beginning we were looked after with so much kindness, care, and compassion.

At the absolute worst time of our lives, they somehow made everything feel that little bit easier and took so much of the worry away from us.

Denise was just incredible.

She was so warm, patient, reassuring and genuinely caring, I honestly don’t know what I would have done without her throughout the whole process.

Nothing ever felt like too much trouble.

The care and respect shown to all of us as a family meant more than I can say.

The funeral itself was perfect; everything was handled so beautifully and exactly how we wanted it, which meant we didn’t have to worry about everything going on behind the scenes.

Its strange because these are people you meet in circumstances you would give everything not to be in, and people you hope you never have to meet, but I will always be so grateful that Denise was the person who was there to guide us through it.

Thank you so much for everything you did for us – we will never forget it ❤

C.H. September 2026

Dear Denise,

Just a short note to say thank you for the immaculate service you provided for the funeral of our precious Daughter.

It helped us so much to make the whole process so much easier.

Thank you sincerely.
