What Our Families Say About Us

I want to thank you again for making mum’s final goodbye so perfect. Everything was seamless and so beautifully done. Also thank you to the rest of your team for their support too.

H.O Bude - May 2024

Our daughter and I wanted to thank you so much for helping and guiding us through a tough time in arranging the funeral. Your calm presence from the first moment we met with you until the end of the service and beyond was very reassuring and we truly appreciate you taking our ideas onboard. Thanks also to Christine who was so patient regarding our ever changing requests for the Order of Service. The funeral truly was a celebration of my husband’s life and you helped make that happen. Many thanks again.

H. S Crackington Haven - December 2024

I would like to send a sincere and heartfelt thank you for your incredible service and support following the passing of my mum. From start to finish, your care and professionalism was impeccable. My mum being such a strong independent lady would have appreciated greatly seeing a lady at the helm of her service and in Cornish colours too. As her daughter, I felt similarly inspired by this, and our walk together down our village lane in front of the hearse was something I will never forget, nor will the whole service be forgotten which you helped us bring to life so beautifully despite our complex requests with services both in Devon and Cornwall. Thank you, Denise and your whole team, for the wonderful work you do, that makes such dark times in people’s lives that bit easier to hold in good grace.

F.C TRESMEER - APRIL 2024

I would like to mention some local businesses who have been utterly amazing since the passing of my lovely Mum.

Firstly, Denise Wellington of Denise Wellington Funeral Services – the warmest, kindest, and most wonderful lady.

She dealt with everything with the utmost professionalism, but also with such love and I genuinely felt like I had a friend there on the funeral day.

I am immensely grateful and couldn’t recommend you more highly.

Dear Denise, in appreciation of your kindness and professionalism, you have been so considerate and helpful. Right from when I first rang you, I knew we were in good hands, you gave us so much great advice too. Several people have told us that the funeral was the nicest they had ever attended. It all went so smoothly thanks to your organising. May we also thank your staff, they have all been amazing. Our Dad would have loved you I’m sure, we think you are awesome.

L.W. Stroud, Gloucestershire - December 2022

Dear Denise, just a little note to say thank you for all your help this year with Mum and Dad. Your kindness and compassion has been truly appreciated more than words can say. We were very appreciative of your professional and supportive service.
