From our very first meeting, to the day of the funeral and after when collecting our mum's ashes, David and Bev treated us like family. Their genuine kindness and understanding made navigating through the unbearably sad time so much easier. Available to us at all hours, they arranged every aspect of the funeral and ensured the service was a moving and dignified tribute to our mum with their quiet professionalism and compassion. We will always be grateful to them.

J Cotton & Sons Funeral Directors Ltd provided an exceptional and compassionate service during a very difficult time. From the first contact through to the final arrangements, the team was professional, caring, and incredibly supportive. They took the time to listen, explained everything clearly, and handled every detail with dignity and respect. Their calm and understanding approach made the whole process much easier for our family, and we felt reassured that our loved one was in safe and caring hands. We are truly grateful for their kindness and would highly recommend D J Cotton & Sons to anyone in need of a funeral director they can trust.

DJ Cotton and sons is a family run business that excels in delivering a stress free, understanding and compassionate service during what are obviously difficult times. Nothing is too much trouble for Dave and the team. I would like to extend our gratitude again for all the support throughout. I cannot recommend highly enough.

Professional, caring and efficient. David was all of these things and more. From the initial contact to talk about the future arrangements through to Mums passing I had complete faith I had made the right choice. David was very caring and helpful and guided me through from the initial contact, taking mum from the care home when she passed to the funeral parlour. In the chapel of rest mum was beautifully laid out and looked amazing. After the cremation I received mum's ashes within a week in a lovely casket. I have no hesitation in reccommending him and my husband and I have already indicated we will be using him again for our own personal use. Mrs Linda Ockwell

DJ Cotton & Sons are a small family business who deliver a very high standard of funeral, with a priceless, personal touch. I contacted the company and spoke directly to David Cotton who came to my home to make the arrangements for my uncle’s funeral. He was punctual, professional and kind. I sense that he’s a ‘people person’ and I felt very relaxed with him. He’s completely approachable and doesn’t make you feel like an idiot for not knowing what’s happening. He patiently explained everything as we went through and was there for me every step of the way. I was very impressed that he was able to arrange the flowers (they were absolutely beautiful, white roses and lillies) and a wonderful order of service. I know it isn’t about the money, but I feel that some funeral directors rip you off when you’re at your most vulnerable. I felt the opposite with David Cotton and I wouldn’t hesitate to use his fine company again.
