It was perfect. Mum would have loved it.
‘The family would like to thank everyone at Hollowells for the compassionate, professional and caring way they supported us following the loss of our late mum, Joan. From our first contact through to the day of the funeral, every detail was handled efficiently with dignity and sensitivity. Special thanks to Amy for overseeing everything and always being available to explain or reassure and to Tracey at Brafield office for the much needed hugs and listening ear. As a family we felt completely looked after and everything proceeded exactly as we wanted it to.’
Having known Hollowells for many, many years, I knew the service would be excellent. Special thanks go to Paul and Simon Hollowell; like father like son.
Thank you very much, you did my dad proud
When my brother John suddenly passed away recently I had no hesitation in turning to Hollowells to organise his funeral. We had used them when both mum and dad died and they provided a first class professional service. I would like to say a big ‘thank you’ to all involved, especially Ann, who talked me through the arrangements, Keith, who produced the order of service, Janine, who took charge on the day, and Trish who delivered a beautiful eulogy (I only wish he could have heard it!). Many, many thanks to you all.
Just to say thankyou for all of your help concerning the care and funeral service of my Mum,
Mrs Olwen Curran.
From my initial meeting with Tracey Taylor, everything was conducted with care and professionalism throughout the process and everyone was accommodating to our wishes and needs and able to make what was undoubtably the most difficult time in my life go as smoothly as possible.
You cared for her well, and every thing we, and she would have wanted was addressed and Mum left us looking magnificent in her clothes specially picked out for her. Every detail was attended to and I am so glad of the care given to her which was a huge relief to me as this was one of my biggest worries in the weeks following her passing.
Special thanks to Tracey for putting up with my incessant emails, and also to Ann O’Neill for Meeting with me prior to the service, for her professionalism during the day and most importantly for going the extra mile at every opportunity to ensure that my Mum had the farewell that she really did deserve.
I just want you to know how grateful we all are at this end for everything you have done, and for attending to all the small details we requested in order to make it exactly how it needed to be – It really is appreciated.
Hollowells surpassed my expectations. They were extremely professional, informative, supportive and very sensitive to my family’s needs and requests. Amy was particularly kind and understanding. I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending their services. It’s a rare thing in this day and age that you can say a company are ‘truly special’.
Your service is beyond anything I’ve ever experienced. What you’ve done is very touching and so heartfelt. You’ve made the process manageable and it was comforting to know Mum was in your care. As always, you’ve given a wonderful service, it was a fantastic send-off. It’s a pleasure dealing with you all.
I was so pleased that Amy was my contact at Hollowells. She always struck the right note. She was professional, organised and efficient but also compassionate, kind, dignified and understanding. I had complete faith that she would do a good job for me on a very difficult day and she did and this helped me to cope. Keith was also helpful in organising the order of service and Obitus tribute.
As a family we have been so grateful to your staff in the arrangements for my Mother’s funeral. From the start when we first met Ann O’Neill we have felt that we were listened to as to our wishes. Everything was done to make the organisation as stress free as possible, particularly when we were feeling upset. All the family and other attendees at the service said how lovely it all was. We would especially like to thank Ann, Andrew Fox ,who took so much trouble to get to know us and my Mum and to the organist on the day. The staff in the office were so helpful in putting together the order of service and making sure it was all correct.
Thank you all.
