Delanoys were so sensitive in organising our Mam’s funeral. Julie and John are easy to trust. At a time when it is hard to think clearly, they take away the worry and stress by stepping you through what needs to happen. They listened and responded with tasteful suggestions. They keep in touch and are very clear on what you do and don’t need to think about. In the end, we had the most wonderful day which celebrated Mam’s life with all the people who knew and loved her. At a sad time, you are very safe in their hands.

Delanoy Funeral Services provided truly exceptional care during such a difficult time for our family. From the very beginning, they were kind, patient, and incredibly compassionate, which made a world of difference to us.

They took the time to really listen and understand what we wanted, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about every detail. Seeing my mam in the chapel was both emotional and comforting, she looked absolutely beautiful, and her hair was done to perfection. That meant so much to us.

A heartfelt thank you to John, Julie, and the entire team for their support, kindness, and professionalism. We are so grateful for everything you did.

There simply aren’t the words to express our Thanks to Julie & John. Over the past month Delanoys have gone above & beyond to ensure our Dad’s wishes were honoured. Dad was treated with dignity & the empathy shown towards us simply could not be matched. The knowledge & care whilst arranging our Dads final journey was a huge comfort knowing if Dad was here, it would have received his approval. From their first visit to the day of the funeral, nothing was too much. We simply cannot recommend Delanoys enough, on behalf of Joe Stout’s family, Thank You from the bottom of our hearts.

Dear John and Julie
We are deeply grateful for your kindness, understanding and support during this very difficult time. Your compassion and professionalism and the way that you made such a difficult time easier for us is without measure. Your compassion during our initial consultation was a great comfort to us and your thoughtful advice and unwavering guidance helped the family to navigate a very challenging period in our lives. You arranged mams funeral , creating a very meaningful and personal journey that truly honoured our wonderful mam , and for that we say thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Andrea Carter

Delanoy Funeral Service provided an absolute fantastic tribute to the life of my mam. I could not have asked for a better service John and Julie are such wonderful people and nothing is too much trouble. They organised everything for me from the flowers to the service books and they were outstanding! I have used this company for three of my family members now and I would never use anyone else. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

Thank you

John and Julie showed us great respect, professionalism and compassion at such a difficult time. They were in constant contact with the family to keep us updated with everything that was happening and went above and beyond their roles to support the family. While we were faced with delays beyond their control we were reassured that they were taking care of mam and that she was safe in their care which was a great comfort to us all.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their services to anyone.

Speaking on behalf of all my family aswell as myself from the moment I called Julie to let her know that my mother had sadly passed away after a very short illness that shocked us all I knew I was dealing with a very caring and compassionate lady.
Our minds were definitely put at ease as I’ve never had to deal with anything like this before.
Both John & Julie kept us informed letting us know every step of the way from collecting my mother from the hospital and preparing her for us to visit her in the chapel of rest and She looked absolutely amazing.
The floral tributes we chose were absolutely beautiful and Julie gave us various options to choose from and excellent advice on what to go for and what not to go for.
On the day of the funeral the cars all turned up and we’re absolutely gleaming and john & Julie came over shook our hands and gave us some lovely calming words and loving smiles which made us feel comfortable knowing that we were celebrating the life of mam.
Anyone looking for a compassionate funeral director I can well assure Delanoy Funeral Services as we’ve all said go way beyond expectations xxx

All of the family would like to thank John & Julie for all of their guidance and support following the passing of my Mam, Ann Coils. They went above and beyond to provide a professional service that was tailored to our wishes. They were very compassionate and respectful. They made the process easier for the family and we truly appreciate that. The tribute video was beautiful and many commented on how lovely it was after the service. (Thank you, Julie.

Hi John and Julie,

Thank you so much for everything you did, in supporting me and the family, after Dad died.

As funeral directors, I know that it's your job but the advice, care and attention to detail, helped me enormously while coming to terms with my Dads death.

You treat my Dad as if he was a member of your own family and we couldn't have asked for anything more.

I'll be eternally grateful for the kindness and care you showed.

Bless you both.

Delanoy funeral services were professional from the outset. Both John and Julie attended our family home on a Sunday to take my deceased mother into their care.

You can feel that they truly care and aim to make connections at what is a very difficult time of grief and loss.

Everything could be personalised and upmost care and attention was given to ensure the service and burial went as planned in quite a short timescale.

We will always be grateful for the humanity and care shown at this very difficult time for our family. I cannot hesitate than to recommend them to you.

Ann B

My husband, Bill, said he wanted a no fuss, simple funeral and that is what Delanoy arranged for us. My daughter and I have nothing but praise for the professionalism, caring and compassion shown to us by Julie and John. They were like friends we had known for a long time and nothing was a trouble. The funeral was a simple but beautiful closure to his life. My daughter and I can only compliment and recommend them, and their staff, for their support and organisation at such a sad time.

On behalf of the family of the late Kevin Hall.
We as a family cannot speak highly enough of the personal, professional and respectful way John and Julie handled our Dad’s funeral.
From the day our Dad passed right up to the day we laid him to rest they went above and beyond in making the day perfect even with a few last minute touches and surprises for the family. They were extremely considerate and showed empathy throughout in what was a very difficult time for all of us and for that we will always remain extremely grateful. We cannot recommend them enough.

Thank you John, Julie and all your staff.

When I was a little boy in Peterlee our neighbours round the corner was I think Jackie Horner but after 70 years thats probably wrong but I know he worked at the pit and his wife was a window dresser in a shop in Hartlepool,could it be Joe's parents?Any upset I may cause I do apologise.
