"Such caring staff. Sam who attended my mother's funeral kept everything in control and guided us on what to do and when. It made it so much easier for us as a family as they took care of everything and nothing was too much trouble."
— Rosie Lanzante (about Lorna, Sam)
"I can honestly say that you could not do better than place your departed loved one in their hands. My particular thanks go to Lorna who could not have been more helpful if she tried, and to Stan who guided us through on the actual day."
— Julius Agricola (about Lorna, Stan)
"Can't thank Woking Funeral Services enough for their support during what has been the most difficult time with the loss of our mum. Lorna and Mary were very accommodating to our situation in making home visits, and Sam on the day of the funeral ensuring that all ran smoothly."
— Izzy Woods (about Lorna, Sam, Mary)
"Myself and my brother felt comforted and welcomed by Lorna. When we felt lost, we were eased with Lorna's professionalism and she made sure my father had the best funeral possible."
— Emilee Green (about Lorna)
"We received the upmost care and compassion from Lorna from our first meeting until the day of mums funeral. Not only did she look after us but also showed full respect in looking after mum as well. I wish to thank you all from the bottom of my heart."
— Mark Northwood (about Lorna, Sam)
"From the moment I walked in I felt I was in the hands of someone that really cared. The day before the funeral I had a call from Sam just to go through how the day was going to go. On the actual day, Sam and his team were just amazing. Calm and caring. You made a day I was dreading - bearable."
— Karen Scrutton (about Lorna, Sam)

Excellent service. We were treated with compassion and respect at a difficult time. All the staff members we dealt with were kind and understanding. Lorna put us in contact with Colin Hawkins who took on the role of celebrant. Colin help us with the service giving useful advice and understanding our needs. I would not hesitate to recommend if occasion ever arose.

Brilliant. The folks here were kind, considerate and oh so helpful. Took the time and trouble to explain everything and to guide us through all the 'bit's and pieces' funerals involve. My particlar thanks go to Lorna who could not have been more helpful if she tried and to Stan who guided us though on the actual day. Many many thanks. I can honestly say that you could not do better than place your departed loved one in their hands.

Can’t thank Woking Funeral Services enough for their support during what has been the most difficult time with the loss of our mum. A special thanks to Lorna, Sam and Mary. Lorna & Mary were very accommodating to our situation in making home visits, and Sam on the day of the funeral ensuring that all ran smoothly. Their communication was excellent throughout. Highly recommend using Woking Funeral Services to anyone.

What can I say about Woking Funeral Services in Knaphill. From the moment I walked I felt I was in the hands of someone that really cared. I met Lorna, who was just wonderful. She helped us with every aspect of my late fathers funeral. I can't recommend them highly enough. The day before the funeral took place I had a call from Sam just to go through how the day was going to go and to see if I had any last minute questions. On the actual day we were in the hands of Sam and his team. who were just amazing. Calm and caring. Thank you, to everyone involved on the day. You made a day I was dreading - bearable.
