“Excellent service from Hollowells. Mum had a pre-paid funeral plan which made the whole process so much easier at a time when you don’t need the extra stress in guessing what mum wanted when the time came and of course having to find the funds to pay for the funeral. Something I need to do at some point and wouldn’t hesitate to use Hollowells. Special mention to the lovely Amy for her kindness during what was and is a sad time for all family.”
Your firm recently arranged for the funeral for my brother, Peter, and on behalf of the family would like to thank for the professionalism shown by the business. Janene was our main point of contact and was excellent in explaining everything and when speaking on the phone to other staff members they also knew the right words to put our minds at rest.
My grateful thanks, once more, for helping to make this time not only easier, but actually making it special, and taking a lot of pressure off us as a family.
It has been a couple of weeks now since mum’s funeral and we are getting back into some kind of a routine. I just wanted to get in touch on behalf of Dad and the Rockingham family to express our thanks for everything you and Hollowells have done for us. From the very first phone call, through to your initial meeting with us and the funeral ceremony, everything was handled with sensitivity, respect, and the utmost professionalism. As a result, we feel we were able to give mum the ‘send off’ she deserved and celebrate her life with family and friends in a manner she would very much have approved of. Our celebrant, Jayne Harcock, captured the essence of mum’s life beautifully and delivered the eulogy with a fitting balance of respect, empathy, and humour. Thank you all for guiding us through this difficult time with such great dignity.
What can I say, well I think you are all amazing people. This is the second funeral you have done for my family, the other being Mum’s husband some six years ago. I honestly can say I felt at ease, albeit distraught at the loss of my mum, but somehow the people involved made us feel calm and able to collate everything. The surroundings too are beautiful and restful. Trudi on the reception area was lovely too and very understanding when I lost control one day. She made me feel that it was quite natural rather than making me feel silly. I knew in my heart that you were doing the very best for my Mum; from collecting her from Cumbria to looking after her when she arrived with you. That was so comforting. I would thoroughly recommend the services you provide to anyone; it was simple; flawless and done with the utmost respect for all concerned. Just a huge thankyou from all the family for everything. Words don’t come close. People should know how great you are.
Amy, in fact everybody I dealt with at Hollowells was fantastic. Our driver was also lovely. You will be our first call if we ever need a Funeral Director because we were more than happy.
Thank you very much, you did my dad proud
The service we received has been exceptional, in particular from Ann O’Neill, Jane Gower and Jayne Gammage for the follow-up. Everyone is so good including the drivers who on the day were so respectful and kind. They are putting themselves at risk without thinking. That’s very selfless. We are being genuine when we say we really didn’t expect it to be done as well as it was. A lot of the stress was taken from us and the empathy and compassion goes above and beyond.
On behalf of my family I would like to thank Hollowells for the way the funeral was managed throughout. We found your staff to be very professional at all times. Amy was fantastic and took care of any requests we had. Whilst never easy dealing with such matters, Hollowells put our mind at rest from start to finish. Once again, please pass our gratitude on to your team.
I would like to thank Tracey and Janine for all their kind support during a difficult time. They were so friendly and made the whole process more bearable. Everything was explained clearly and nothing was too much trouble.
I would be more than happy to recommend your firm to others.
