Every single person we had contact with were sympathetic, kind, and personal. From the very initial telephone contact we were reassured and comforted by the help and service we had. We were gently guided through all the processes needed. The funeral was perfect, we could not have asked for more.

Carl was exemplary from the start, he dealt with the family with dignity and empathy. Carl was professional throughout our entire dealings with him, as were his team during on the day of the service. The recommendations they gave were excellent as was the decision to bring in Megan as the celebrant. We could not be more thankful for a wonderful send off.

My hubby Alan died of Covid in March of this year. Me and my family chose Darrin and his team to arrange the funeral and to look after Alan. I am so pleased we did ! The whole team is fantastic they were caring respectful and couldn't do enough to help us. A special thanks to Bill who supported us every day for ten days when we visited Alan ever day, and also to Emma and to Darren himself. I would recommend Darren and the team to everyone who I know will be going through a traumatic and sad experience. I am so thankful to them for the way they supported us and for the caring way they looked after my lovely Alan

A huge " thank you " to everyone connected with Daren Persson funeral services. At a time of sadness, my family were supported 100 percent of the way. Nothing was too much trouble and staff were both friendly and professional . Mr Bremner talked us through every step and his choice of celebrant, Mr Brown, was perfect. I would recommend this funeral service to everyone, knowing that friends and loved ones would be treated with respect and dignity.Ms Linda Martin

After using your services once again can I start with Daren and thank him for looking after us on the day. Next we would like to thank Suzanne and Bill for all their help and support they went above and beyond all expectations. They were there every step of the way for us as a family.Nothing was too much of a bother for them day and night. They made the saddest of times a lot more bearable for us
