Delanoy funeral services recently attended to my mother following her bereavement. I can't thank Julie and John enough for their professional conduct and caring attitude. The service that Delanoy provides I would describe as 5 star and I would have no hesitation in recommending Delanoy to any one who requires their services.
From the moment we first spoke to them, the Julie and John were incredible. They showed so much love, care, and support through such a difficult time for our family. They made sure the funeral was completely individual to my brother, thinking of every little detail and guiding us with kindness from start to finish. Their communication was faultless, and nothing was ever too much trouble. We will always be grateful for the compassion and dedication they gave us, they truly went above and beyond.
Many thanks to John Julie and Delanoy team for such a beautiful service for my mam, the memorial video was amazing and they fulfilled all our wishes on the day , their professionalism, kindness and support given every step of the way really helped us as a family at such a sad time , thanks so much .
I can't recommend Delanoy's enough. John and Julie were absolutely fantastic for me and my family when organising my dad's funeral. They went above and beyond and made us feel like they genuinely cared for us. They were always just a text away to answer the miriad of questions we had and to include extra things to the service. Adding little touches like all wearing hartlepool united ties and many others, that we loved so much. The tribute video that julie made was brilliant and made sure my dad got the send off he deserved. They made our worst day as lovely as possible and we as a family will never forget it. If you find yourself needing a funeral director, book them you won't be disappointed.

A fantastic experience in what were obviously difficult circumstances for us. Right from the start, Delanoy were at our side. They made the process so much easier. Nothing was too much trouble. We cannot thank them enough for their support and love throughout.
John and Julie were very supportive at this sad time towards family and friends. Everything was taken care of very professional and great understanding of my wishes and needs.i would not hesitate to recommend delanoy funeral services thank you.
Delanoy Funeral Services are an excellent company, who offer a caring and professional service.
The support they have given myself and my partner since the passing of our good friend Derek Hartis is impeccable.
They made the service personal to whom Derek was as a person and about the life he lead, which is exactly what we wanted.
They got the songs we wanted and used all the photos we'd asked them to use and even took time out of their personal lives to come to our home and take videos and aerial shots of the house, which we are extremely grateful for.
Everyone commented after the service of how beautiful and personalised it was to Derek.
They are very reasonably priced for the service they offer and for everything they include.
We thank Delanoy Funeral Services from the bottom of our hearts for making this sad time so much easier to manage and cope with.
Thanks and kind regards

Julie and John such Lovely and caring people showed so much respect for my son who passed away last month would definitely recommend
I thank you both so very much X
The entire process was brilliant, the finer details really separate Delanoy and other directors. It felt so incredibly personal and you could tell a great deal of care and attention went into every aspect of the funeral. From special touches with music that we have never seen before to an incredible tribute video, is it bad to say I look forward to them planning my funeral?
Absolutely fantastic service, Julie and John went above and beyond with our Sons funeral, they really do care and are so considerate to your every wish at such a heartbreaking time in our lives, we would definitely recommend Delanoy’s funeral services. Peter and Tracey
We can't recommend Delanoy's Funeral Services Ltd highly enough. From the moment we met John and Julie they guided us through the sad process of organising the funeral for our Mother with care, respect and professionalism.
Their little touches and suggestions helped personalise it and turned the funeral into a lovely celebration of her life.
On behalf of all of our family we would like to say thank you!
They are respectful, empathetic and go the extra mile to make sure that in your time of need, you know that your loved one will have the best send off they deserve. They were available any time we needed them and delivered on everything we asked for. They made a difficult time a lot easier and I thank them for that x
Professional from the beginning of the planning process to the fulfillment of the funeral itself.

My family are very pleased we made the right choice in choosing this Company for our Mothers funeral.

She had a brilliant send-off and the accompanying videos and audio recordings that Julie did for us were the highlight of the day.

I would recommend this Company to anyone planning a funeral.

sent on behalf of the Chandy family

Dear John and Julie,

On behalf of the Chandy family we are sending our heartfelt gratitude for all you have done since losing our Dad, Dr Joseph Chandy.

We expected a professional approach but we were overwhelmed how personal you made the whole experience. The memorial video you made of our Dad brought everyone to tears that watched it. Furthermore you also created a beautiful video compilation of the day including the procession through Horden village that has captured the moment forever and was so moving.

You accommodated all our personal requests and went the extra mile to make it happen.

You held our hands every step of the way. Thank you so much for making a difficult time so special and spiritual.

Warm regards

Joseph, Paul and Leanne Chandy

Absolutely beautiful service John and Julie provided for my dad they were so supportive and caring and helped my carry out dad's wishes. They really do care and support you at one of the worst times I would like too thank then for everything and I would highly recommend Delanoy Funeral Services
During the most difficult day of our lives, Delanoy provided a professional and dignified service. They provided empathy, compassion, and respect to the family.

Working with John and Julie, we were able to add the details we wanted to give Marie a beautiful sendoff she deserved. We were able to mourn and say goodbye in the way we wanted. When we had any questions, both provided important knowledge and expertise.

Throughout the planning of the funeral and during the funeral, both John and Julie gave us guidance, advice, support and were there every step of the way. I highly recommend Delanoy to anyone looking for an outstanding funeral service.

Thank you for everything.
Five star service from this firm.
Very professional, attentive kind and caring. Would definitely recommend.
I can’t find enough words to convey how appreciative we are for the arrangements Delanoy have made for Jim’s passing and funeral. They managed to turn what could have been a sad, mournful day, into a massive celebration of his life. There WERE tears, but the entire day was filled with love and happy memories, all carried out with exceptional organisation.
Losing a partner is very difficult and Jim’s passing WAS expected, and dreaded, but from walking into Delanoy’s office, on that Wednesday, talking to John and Julie, our heartache eased. We were given advice on how to deal with a death, who we needed to notify, etc.
Little did we know that we would be needing John and Julie again - at midnight that very same day. Again, they were there, guiding, listening, waiting, giving comfort to a grieving family. Every step of the process we were kept informed as to what to do, what to expect.
We can’t thank the Delanoy staff enough for the help given on that day and the following three weeks, culminating into a carefully planned, wonderful send off for Jim. You and your staff are to be commended. Everyone at the funeral service said what a joyous occasion you had arranged.
John, Julie, all staff - thankyou for all you did for us - before, during and after.
Thankyou from the Goldsworthy family.
A wonderful service given by John and Julie. Can't thank them enogh
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.
To John and Julie on behalf of me and Brooke we would like to thank you for such a memory filled send off for Ronnie. It was a day we will remember full of memories, tears and laughter you helped us make the day just what we wanted and Julie was so thoughtful and caring throughout thank you both so much xx
Fantastic service from John and Julie just as we asked for nothing too much trouble.
A huge thank you to John and Julie at Delanoy for the kindness and support they gave our family. They guided us through every step with patience and care, always making time for our questions and easing our worries. The service was handled beautifully, with dignity and warmth, and we will always be grateful for everything they did to help us at such a difficult time.
As a family we truly can’t thank John & Julie enough for the service they have provided for us. From the day my dad passed right up until his send off they’ve treated both ourselves and my dad with the utmost respect. Their professionalism is second to none. They’ve shown great empathy and consideration throughout the most difficult time of our lives and for that we will forever be grateful. Nothing was ever too much trouble for them and they’ve guided us every step of the way, the send off they gave my dad would have been exactly what he wanted which we have found great comfort in whilst grieving such a huge loss. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts!

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.

I am writing to express our deepest gratitude for the exceptional care and support John and Julie provided for my mam's, Phoebe Lloyd funeral. From our first meeting to the service itself, your compassion, patience, and professionalism were a tremendous comfort to us.
We appreciated Emma the celebrant for how beautifully the service was conducted, the sensitivity of the staff, the thoughtful way you handled the arrangements, It was clear how much care you put into honoring my mam, Phoebe Lloyd life, and we received many comments from family and friends about how perfect the service was
Thank you so much, John and Julie.

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.

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.

A beautiful final farewell for former miner Martin Jones today in Easington.

Martin loved the Durham Big Meeting, the brass bands, and everything the mining community stood for. It was a real honour to have the Miners’ Banner out for him today.

Thank you to Alan Cummings for arranging for the banner to be there, and to the brass band players who came along to support us and Martin’s family. Your presence meant so much.
