Testimonials

Such professionalism and attention to detail, my family and I cannot express enough our gratitude for the way you conducted my mother’s funeral arrangements. At a time when everything seems surreal and incomprehensible you guided us through a most difficult time with such gentlemanly dignity. 

Every detail was attended to and nothing left to chance, everything was perfect for my mother’s farewell. You have set such a high standard that I would suggest many in this difficult business would struggle to emulate. I commend you for your work and will speak highly of your services to others.

On behalf of my family and I, we would all like to express our sincere thanks to you all at Pearce Funeral Services for looking after our mother and directing her funeral. John, the day I met you I trusted my mother to your services. 

You walked into my home and an older brother, became like a member of our family, and lightened our grief, we thank you so much. Everything you have done for our mother was perfect.

My mum passed away on 5th March 2013. This was the hardest thing I have ever had to cope with, arranging my mum’s funeral. Amongst losing her my sister and myself had to clear her home and try to arrange a funeral. My sister found this company, Pearce Funeral Services, they are the most kindest people. 

When you’re suffering a great loss you need a little time to adjust and a lot of consideration to what has happened. Pearce’s have been patient, polite and everything was just right for my mum, I know she would have been pleased with the send off. 

I wish to say thank you mostly to John Pearce who was dealing with mum’s funeral, you have been wonderful to the family and myself. I would give this funeral service a 10 star for all over service. Thank you so much.

Just wanted to thank you for the fantastic service that you have given to my children with regards to their father, who’s funeral took place today at Kingsdown Crematorium.

My eldest daughter Lisa had said what a lovely person you were and how you had made her feel so at ease when she initially spoke with you. When I first met you a day or so later, I saw for myself exactly what she meant. You were so welcoming, so calming and so professional in all you did.

When I came to the chapel of rest, again you were welcoming and so understanding and again today at the funeral.

May I personally say a big thank you for the heart-warming service you gave.

Thank you for the way in which you conducted the cremation of Les, I can honestly say that family and friends alike were very impressed with the service.

Thank you for the wonderful service you have provided for me and my family. You treated my Mum with such dignity that I will never forget it, and I will cherish the last time I saw her, she was so peaceful, which is thanks to you. We also appreciated how your service was so personal and friendly, which helped take so much pressure off us at this sad time. 

The feedback from my family and friends spoke sincerely about the service you provided for us, the funeral itself could not have gone off any better. Once again thank you so much for your kind, dignified and personal touch that you showed throughout the whole process. We would recommend your service to everyone we know.

Many thanks for your help and support over the past couple of weeks. I would like to thank everyone involved for their kind and professional manner. 

You do a difficult job exceedingly well. This is the first funeral I have had to organise, and you managed to relieve a lot of the trauma and smooth the way in a very calm and organised manner.

DF

It was with such trepidation that we returned from our last visit to Ann in hospital. Turning to you for assistance with final arrangements removed all the worry and hassle for us associated with the funeral. Thank you for the kind and considerate way you helped us through the myriad of complications with seemed to arise each day.

Our friends and family, who had travelled long distances, were most enamoured of the church and all the arrangements, made quietly and unobtrusively, managed to create an ambience in keeping with Joyce Grenfell’s verse and the way we felt.

J&P

Thank you for all the help you have given me at this very stressful time of my life. Thank you once again.
