Rei and her team at Neville Funerals Hemel were outstanding in their care, service and support in providing our family with funeral services when our dad passed away. They were professional and explained everything with clarity and sensitivity. Michael was also wonderful on the day of the funeral, quietly coordinating behind the scenes and making sure everything ran smoothly. An excellent service that I would highly recommend.

Our beloved mum was 86 & had aggressive cancer. From the moment mum passed, Nevilles took care of our every request. They took such good care of our wonderful dad who passed just 18 months ago, it was a given that we would choose Nevilles for mum too. I can’t thank them enough for their empathy & care towards both mum & us, her 3 daughters. Five stars really isn’t enough. Thank you for everything.
