TESTIMONIALS

The family and I would like to pay tribute and thank all the staff at Hollowells, for their excellent service.  All the family were dealt with in a kind, compassionate, respectful and sympathetic way, with great attention to special requests and details. The funeral was carried out with dignity, and just as John had requested, and the best it could be.  In particular the reception staff, and the viewing in the Chapel of Rest, were carried out in a quiet, comforting way, and John looked so peaceful and well looked after, at this sad time.

I certainly would highly recommend Hollowells Funeral Directors to anyone needing their services in the future.

Your company did a superb job. It is the second time we’ve used you. We came back because we were so pleased before. You are helpful and considerate, I couldn’t fault you. Nothing was ever too much trouble and Ann was lovely.

Just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone at Hollowells for Dad’s funeral. 

It all went very smoothly thanks to everyone’s help. One of my relatives from Scotland commented “how nice and professional” you all were ! (although one of the coffin bearers was unshaven, that did let Hollowells down a tiny bit.)

Being able to book the funeral flowers, the caterer and use your room for the wake, as well as the funeral itself…And pay for it all under one invoice will make payment from Dad’s Estate a breeze ! 

(Please pass on my thanks to the caterer for the lovely food : everyone said the scones were fab!)

(Please also thank the florist who provided a lovely casket spray.)

I was also very impressed that you liaised with the church, vicar, grave diggers etc to get dates when everyone would be available… even before I arrived to choose the casket or book a date ! : it made an unhappy situation a lot easier to bear.

I also want to thank Keith, in Design department for coming up with a lovely Order of Service and interpreting my ideas beautifully. 

In fact, everyone I dealt with at Hollowells was friendly and professional.

Once again, huge thanks.

My family and I would like to say thank you to all the staff at Hollowells for the excellent service they gave to us for our fathers funeral.

Everybody was so helpful and treated us with respect which made something so difficult and hard feel easier for us.

Everyone involved treated us with kindness and respect. 

We highly recommend Hollowells Funeral Directors.

Sincere thanks to all at Hollowells for their oustanding attention to detail and their compassionate care of Rose and the wider family.

 Especial thanks go to Dale Earl for his calm and sympathetic approach which made us know that we were in the safest of hands.

 The funeral was conducted beautifully by Kaylie Cullen. Her quiet demeanour and professionalism made the service so special and it enabled us to remember Rose as she would have wished.

 We were recommended to ‘The Secret Garden’ for our floral tribute and they gave us the most glorious arrangement which was exactly what we asked for.

 Thank you once again for your care and attention at this sad time.

This has been such a terrible time but I feel compelled to offer my most heartfelt thanks for the incredible sensitive and tasteful way your entire staff have treated me. From the first contact the two lads who came to collect Barry were very courteous and helpful. Meeting Chloe was like meeting up with an old friend, she is certainly a valuable asset to your company and should be extremely proud of the way she conducted herself right form the first encounter through the whole process. Even being kind enough to personally take the flowers to my home after dropping us off at the wake. Keith put into pictures the design that I could only have dreamt of in the service sheet and once again all contact with him was so smooth and trouble free. And last but by no means least I have to offer my thanks to Edna (Hollowells Vintage type Hearse). Such a beautiful and dignified Old Lady who carried out her duties without missing a beat. A big thank-you to her too.

I just wanted to thank you all at Hollowells for arranging My Dads (Dennis) funeral. You made a very difficult time a little easier by taking away some of the stress and worry with arranging everything for us. You all dealt with the funeral in a really kind and respectful way and supported us throughout the whole thing from arrangements to the service. Covid restrictions made this time even harder but again Hollowells led us in the correct way forward and made the funeral as nice as it could be at this time. The fact you had arranged my Mum s funeral 18 months before was also a pressure taken away as we already knew how well you all deal with things. It was lovely to have the two services dealt with by yourselves to give consistency and similarly for my lovely parents.
Thank you all so much.
