Hollowells have been brilliant from start to finish.
Just wanted to say a big thank-you to you and your team. Mum’s funeral although very sad was a celebration of her life and your team especially Chloe reassured me at every step that everything was in place and as I wanted for my mum. Thank you for the special service books, the book mark and the remembrance photos that you gave to me, these were lovely tokens. Thank you for the orchid and the book, this has some lovely advice in it that is really useful and uplifting in very difficult times.
Nothing but good words from all the family on how Hollowells have dealt with the deaths of both our parents within 16 months. Not at all pushy they act on the wishes of the family and make a really difficult situation that little bit more bearable.
I wanted to thank you and Hollowells for the wonderful support you and your colleagues gave me and my family for my aunt’s funeral. You were always so sympathetic and helpful, as well as professional. Not living locally, it was also good to know the phone is always answered promptly. The day went every bit as well as I’d hoped.
I was so pleased with the final Order of Service – I really appreciated your graphic designer Clare spending the time to get the text right, and she also improved the colour on the back-page photos.
And the music was all played in at exactly the right moments.
You and your colleagues also made ending the service and being able to spend time with guests in the memorial garden go very smoothly. Along with ensuring everyone took a wildflower seed envelope, and that they saw the option for a charity donation. I was also very pleased with the floral tribute – which looked beautiful on a table at the reception.
The reception went well at The Royal Oak in Blisworth – their Acorn Barn is a good venue, with access to the beer garden, and they were very pleasant and helpful with the catering. Thank you again for all your help – I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Hollowells.
Met with Tracey just before Christmas to discuss our wants and needs for my mum’s funeral. What a compassionate, empathetic person she is. We discussed so much, my mum, her life, her jobs, sense of humour, my brother and his family, the dog. There was no rush to get everything sorted and out the door. It didn’t end there, several times between initial meeting and the service Tracey checked in on me to see how I was bearing up. Tracey recommended a minister to carry out the service, Trish, she couldn’t have recommended anybody better, and EVERYONE has said she delivered a beautiful service….which she did! On the day Amy called me to introduce herself and let me know she would be looking after us and to just finalise everything for the cars arriving at my house. Everything was perfect, if you can say such a thing about a funeral. I would just like to say that all the staff at Hollowells who looked after us on the day, and looked after mum while she was in their care, are an absolute credit to the business. Oh and thank you to Amy for that hug when you finally delivered us to the wake and ensured we were all okay before you left…. it was very much needed! So from us all……a very big thank you
On behalf of all the family of Robert Neil Tebbutt who was a much loved dad, grandad, great grandad and great great grandad we would like to say a heartfelt thank you for making the day a most perfect one and giving him the send off he thoroughly deserved.
From the first meeting with Anne O’Neill, to Peter Wyllie the celebrant who was recommended by you, Amy who who was with us on the day, the drivers and the pole bearers who help instruct family members on the day how to carry the coffin so they could make the final journey with him I would like to say a big thank you on behalf of the family for making the the whole process more of a celebration of his life rather than the end of it. You helped all of us turn what was a very sad time into the most perfect ending.
I wholeheartedly want people to know about Hollowells. You guys couldn’t do enough. It was an amazing, lovely, beautiful funeral and that helps to make you feel so much better.”
I would like to thank you and your colleagues at Hollowells for giving my dad such a lovely send off. Everything – the order of service, music, transport was done to such a high standard. It was an emotional time and made easier by your kindness, support and professionalism.
Although we had used Hollowells for my Mother in Law’s funeral, that only happened because you were recommended by someone else who had to use your services. Similarly, we would have no hesitation in recommending Hollowells but hopefully not too soon. I was delighted with how things went on the day, the handling of arrangements before hand and in fact prior to the funeral I felt that I should be doing something. Of course that was all done for me. The service was a fine tribute to my father and he would have approved. On a personal note, Chloe handled the arrangements perfectly and I was delighted with her help, constructive and knowledgeable advice and of course her support. I could not have asked for more. Please pass on my thanks to her. Sadly, I know you are all busy at present given events worldwide so I am thinking of all those who have to make funeral arrangements, an overlooked role during the current pandemic.
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.
