Stoneman Funeral Service is an independent, sixth-generation family business based at Doran Court, Reigate Road, Redhill, Surrey.

They are members of the National Association of Funeral Directors, the Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors, and the British Institute of Funeral Directors, among other professional bodies.
