The business was established in Amersham in 2017 by Jason Brown, who has been working in the funeral profession since 1992, bringing decades of experience and a deeply personal approach to supporting bereaved families.
Jason and his wife Ana run the business together, greeting families at their Woodside Road office or visiting clients at home if that is more convenient. Jason personally oversees every funeral from the initial arrangement through to conducting the service on the day, ensuring everything goes exactly as families wish. Whether families require a simple unattended direct cremation or a large service in a place of worship, crematorium or cemetery, the team tailors every funeral to individual needs.
J Brown Funeral Services has been recognised for its outstanding commitment to the community, winning the 2022 Buckinghamshire Business Awards Community Champions Award and the 2022 Amersham Business of the Year Award, as well as the 2021 Buckinghamshire Business Awards Excellence in Customer Service. The business is also a member of the Association of Green Funeral Directors and is recommended by the Good Funeral Guide.

— Jane Giorgi (about Jason)
"They just got it. I would have no hesitation in recommending him and his team — they did a faultless job in arranging an amazing funeral service that was exactly the celebration of my dad's life we were hoping for."

"They were very responsive, even late at night and over the weekends. On the day Jason was calm and caring, which really helped me during a very difficult day."
— Killian Currey-Lewis (about Jason)

"Whether it was opening late so that family members could visit my dad whilst in their chapel or helping us dress and wash my dad, everything they did helped lift the burden off us."
