What Our Families Say About Us

Thank you so much for the care and compassion you showed to us all while arranging Mum’s funeral. It all went beautifully on the day and I’m sure she would have approved! All the boys wearing the Cornish ties was the icing on the cake!

 

S.C Launceston - April 2024

I really don’t know how to thank you enough for the care and attention both mum and we have received during our recent bereavement. I had no idea how complicated the various stages would be and you have steered us expertly, calmly and with great compassion through the whole process, culminating in the most glorious service of thanksgiving at St Andrew’s yesterday, that mum would have thoroughly enjoyed. Our community is incredibly lucky to have you and your wonderful skills and we were lucky to have you looking after mum and us.With heartfelt thanks

J.B Stratton - March 2024

Dear Denise, thank you for all you did to ensure things went as smoothly as possible during a very difficult time, it is very much appreciated. Thank you also for your calm, reassuring help and support organising every aspect of my dear husband’s funeral.

L.P. Bude - January 2023

This is just a short note to thank you so much for arranging the funeral of my dear friend. Your understanding and advice made such a difference. The day itself was so efficiently organized, it made the whole event quite stress free. Thank you again.

J.G Bude - May 2024

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

I want to express my heartfelt thanks to you and your team for the wonderful, seamless funeral service you have provided for us. Today was always going to be a difficult day, and emotionally it was, however knowing that you had effortlessly organised all we had wished for to provide a fitting send off for my darling mother, made the day so much easier. I have received a number of comments today expressing how well organised the celebration of my mother’s life was, and therefore wanted to pass on these comments. Thank you again for providing an amazing service.
