It was perfect. Mum would have loved it.
It was perfect. Mum would have loved it.
Although I have lived in Northamptonshire for many years I was unaware of any funeral services in the locality so when my 96 year old mother was admitted to a nursing home I was at a loss when they asked me for my choice of funeral director. I did a bit of checking but the home said some nice things about your team so I made contacted. How right they were from the moment I made contact your team could not have been more helpful even when I was contacted with the information that mum’s body had been received & I said I wasn’t sure what to do next I was told the steps that would occur & even given the telephone number for the registrar. As I say everyone has been kind & professional but I would like to especially highlight Chloe who we met to organise the funeral, she was incredibly kind & helpful, nothing was too much trouble for her even to sorting out a Saturday cremation as one son is a senior school teacher & is very busy at this time of year with exams etc & she even made sure that it was a mid morning service so both sons could drive down on the day.
You made it as painless as you could. We were very pleased, the whole thing went well. It was a good sending off. Reverend Judy Evans, Amy and Keith were all brilliant.
We went to Hollowells on recommendation from a friend and were absolutely delighted with the service they gave us. All the staff we spoke to showed care and compassion. Dale arranged my husband’s funeral with respect and kindness, keeping us up to date as things progressed. Keith was extremely helpful in producing the service sheet when I was deciding how I wanted it. Hollowells attention to detail is impressive and they made a sad and difficult time much easier for us all. I highly recommend them.
I’ve used you several times before and would recommend you to anyone. Your people are very good at reading people. Everything went so smoothly.
We just wanted to thank you for all your help arranging the funeral for my Uncle. Everything went according to plan, and the flowers were really lovely. The Rev Martin Shaw was lovely, and really made the service personal. We watched from the Webcast and it was a lovely service. The programs were really good too. Many thanks again.
I am writing to thank Chloe and her team for making what was a difficult day run as smoothly as possible. Chloe in particular was excellent. Her suggestions, when we first met in the office, were spot on, and on the day she gently guided us when necessary and gave us clear options when it was our choice. She made the day as stress free as was possible. Chloe was very helpful, efficient, sympathetic and understanding, and I cannot commend her enough.
Thank you
Just wanted to let you all know what an Excellent and professional job was done by everyone at Hollowell’s from the first meeting to the actual funeral and the subsequent collection of the Ashes. My entire family could not fault any aspect of the whole series of events that took place with the lovely added touch of some beautiful Orchids being delivered to our home .
We have already one funeral plan in place for either myself or my wife and will most definitely recommend Hollowell’s to anyone who asked for Funeral Directors services,
Just want to say how the whole family want to thank Hollowells for Guy’s beautiful funeral. The whole morning was handled so well by everyone involved.
A special thank you to Janine who was helpful, assertive with what we needed and so so lovely.
We would definitely recommend and use your company again.
My mum Dorothy Steel had already booked and paid for a funeral plan with Hollowells , so a lot of the organisation was already planned. However, it’s always a difficult time when a loved one dies and its so important to have that personal and professional guidance to get you through it and ensure that everything goes according to plan.
I and my whole family would like to thank everyone at Hollowells who played their part. From the ladies on reception, Keith who organised the order of service and webcast , the coffin bearers and particularly Amy, our director. Every aspect was carried out with empathy, care, patience and respect. Everything went according to plan and mums life was successfully celebrated with the imperative and welcome guidance of Amy’s choice of celebrant, the lovey Jane Harcock. We couldn’t have asked for better, so thank you all.
Perfect. You are beyond wonderful and made a world of difference. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you. It couldn’t have gone better, it was the most wonderful service. You are all so nice, kind and professional from the reception staff, Ann O’Neill and Peter Wyllie through to the drivers.”
