Including any property in their name, even if jointly owned.

"Gary from Fishers walked me through the process clearly and with understanding during what was a difficult time. He assisted with everything from the choice of coffin through to the actual service."
— mark bristow (about Gary)
"Gary the arranger and Graeme the funeral director were courteous, dignified, smart and caring. From the removal of her body from our home, through the process of agreeing the plan, arranging details with the crematorium, organising a live stream and then on the day itself, they managed everything very well."

Excellent funeral service. The staff showed immense respect from the start. Gary from Fishers walked me through the process clearly and with understanding during what was a difficult time. He assisted with everything from the choice of coffin through to the actual service. Kieran the funeral director on the day was knowledgeable and courteous. I would highly recommend Fishers in Southwold.

Fishers organised the funeral for my late aunt Patricia. The service was amazing. Their attention to detail and getting everything exactly how the family would want it is brilliant. A great send off she would have loved. Thankyou. 10/10.

Fishers, as was the case with my sister's funeral in 2018, managed everything very well for my wife's funeral on 3rd March 2025. From the removal of her body from our home, through the process of agreeing the plan, arranging details with the crematorium, organising a live stream and then on the day itself, Gary the arranger and Graeme the funeral director were courteous, dignified, smart and caring. Thank you all very much.

The Fishers team have been excellent throughout the period between my father's passing and final interment. They have been flexible in many ways so that the funerals process was very stress free. Their approach was always caring, but business like, so that arrangements were agreed and delivered to our family's satisfaction. I would thoroughly recommend them.
