Jazz and Nick were absolutely fabulous and professional. Nothing was to much for them to address and arrange. And on the day of the funeral the staff that attended were courteous and professional as well. It went so smooth that it made a hard day easier for the family.

Jas and the team at Ernest Larner provided an exemplary service throughout the process of arranging and carrying out my father’s funeral. They struck an appropriate balance between formality and friendliness which I very much appreciated.

Jazz, David and all the staff where so caring and sympathetic, as well as professional and informative throughout the whole funeral arrangement for my late mother. I was so nervous and scared leading up to the day but they kept me informed in all communication between them and other services such as the church and gave me clear guidance and directions on what to expect each step of the way. They took all the stress away on organising everything which allowed me to spend time to grieve, I deeply appreciate this. They also organised my father’s funeral 13 years ago for my mum and our family back then, this helped as they had my father’s funeral details, so I requested something similar. Mum and dad are together again.
Thank you so much Ernest Larner & Son!

Funeral arrangements provide by Ernest Larner & son were first class and excellent,every thing was explained including costs which were very reasonable i was also delighted with celebrant Angela Morgan who conducted the service on the day and also made it clear it was about what we wanted to take place on the day in terms of music choices and words and prayers to be read and giving us further suggestions to enhance the service.I cannot thank and recommend your company highly enough for the smoothness and professionalism provided.

Regarding the funeral of Mrs Mary Kathleen Sara Treacy on 1 November 2021
I want to say how impressed I was with the way the whole episode of arranging the funeral, answering all my questions, helping with the selection of a celebrant and other helpful suggestions.
It was a difficult time for me as I was undertaking the arrangements on behalf of her sons, one of whom had not been in contact for several years. The funeral itself could not have gone any better and the brothers met again at the funeral and renewed contact. This, for me, was the most positive aspect.
I am sorry I cannot use the name of the person who dealt with me because he was truly kind and took all the stress away from me.
Thank you so much
Shelagh Murphy - Please feel free to use my commendation in any way you see fit.

All the staff I spoke to were friendly, helpful and extremely professional. My mother had taken out a funeral plan which made a very difficult time relatively easy! I am looking into taking out a funeral plan myself....to help my loved ones have an easier time when its my turn!
