"Tony also granted a personal request to bring the hearse to the house, which was a great comfort to my mum. Dad was dressed in his own clothes and these details were things we would not have known to ask about, but were important in hindsight and have given us solace."
— Natalie (about Tony)
"We walked into the office with a very heavy heart but came out smiling and reassured knowing our mum was being looked after. As silly as it may sound, we were made to feel like part of the family, welcomed with open arms. The five star rating is not high enough as far as we are concerned."
— Jeff Rennie (about James)
"We, his parents, are living in South Africa which being so far away, posed numerous problems. We need never have worried. James went the extra mile, including personally delivering our son's ashes to our niece many miles away."
— Peter Welland (about James)
"James and Tony looked after us as if they were part of our family, and I shall NEVER EVER forget the immense comfort and support they gave us. It's actually impossible to find the right words to adequately express my gratitude to two such remarkable people."
— Amanda Brown (about James)
"James, you will never know just how much your support has meant to me. Losing my dad had been the hardest thing me, my sister and mum have ever faced, and planning his funeral felt overwhelming, but James made what seemed impossible feel manageable. It was his genuine humanity and empathy that made the most difference."
— Nicola West (about James)
"Seeing her looking so peaceful and beautiful was incredibly comforting for our family. My mum rested with them for four weeks and we were able to visit till the day before the funeral, and throughout that time she was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. Tess worked from a photograph and managed to make my mum look exactly like herself."
— Kelly Byfield (about Tess)

I cannot thank Legacy Funeral Directors enough for the care, compassion and professionalism they showed to my family when we lost our mum. Being a family-run business, they truly go above and beyond and treat you with such kindness at one of the hardest times in your life. Tony was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he made sure every detail was perfect so that my mum had the send-off she truly deserved. His support, patience and genuine care meant so much to us. A very special thank you also to Tess, who does the makeup in-house. She worked from a photograph and managed to make my mum look exactly like herself. Seeing her looking so peaceful and beautiful was incredibly comforting for our family. My mum rested with them for four weeks and we were able to visit till the day before funeral, and throughout that time she was treated with the utmost dignity and respect. Legacy made such a difficult time so much easier for us, and we will always be grateful. I would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone needing a caring and truly professional funeral director.Thank you Tony, James , tess 🙏 Thank you for everything ❤️

Legacy Funeral Services were so amazing at a really hard time. They arranged everything for us. James was always calling to make sure we were OK and see if we needed anything. It made the whole thing so much calmer and easier. The cost was fab as well.

Simply the Best and most friendly compassionate team! No one can truly express how they will act and feel on the death of a beloved family member and on the loss of Dad we had all we needed at Legacy. James and the team we are beyond grateful and full of appreciation, the heartfelt thanks are simply not enough. The entire Legacy team were splendid and helped us through the heartbreaking times. Nothing was too much and offered so much going above and beyond any expectation and James was nothing short of exceptional. We felt James was so professional; able to share such loving compassion and what was naturally so overwhelming was all possible with the kind guidance offer a dignified warm kind-hearted support. We instinctively knew Dad was with the right people. As a family we could not recommend Legacy Funeral Services highly enough it is the people who are at the centre of the business – this was so evident with everyone we have spoken to. James did so much for us as a family and we are truly grateful to you and all at Legacy. With love Jo x

The Best! There are simply not enough words to truly express the depth of gratitude my family and I feel for everything James, Tony, and the entire Legacy team did for us. From the very first, heartbreaking phone call to the moment we said our final goodbye at my dad’s funeral, James was nothing short of extraordinary. Losing my dad had been the hardest thing me, my sister and mum have ever faced, and planning his funeral felt overwhelming, but James made what seemed impossible feel manageable. He guided us through every step of the process with such kindness, dignity, and warmth. His compassion and understanding was evident in everything he did, and he cared for my wonderful dad, and all of us, with a level of respect and heart that words can barely capture. Nothing was ever too much trouble, no question ever too small, James was there for us at every turn, offering steady guidance, support, and understanding. His professionalism was second to none, yet it was his genuine humanity and empathy that made the most difference. Every single detail was handled with such care that it gave me and my family comfort during a time of unimaginable pain. We also received so many compliments from our friends and family after the service about how beautifully everything was handled and how exceptional James and his team are.. While no one ever wants to have to arrange a funeral, if that time comes, I could not recommend Legacy Funeral Services highly enough. I would honestly recommend them a thousand times over. James, you will never know just how much your support has meant to me. From the very bottom of my heart, thank you for everything you did for my dad and for helping us through the most difficult time of our lives. I will be forever grateful. Nicola x
