I want to say a special thank you to John and Julie from DELANOY FUNERAL DIRECTORS whilst I appreciate its sort of a business for you it didn't feel that way to us, it felt personal, special and genuinely caring, so professional from start to finish. I don't have enough words to express how great you all were.

Thank you and God Bless xx

I am very grateful to Julie and the team for taking such good care of my Nannan over the past few weeks. Her service was beautiful and nothing was too much for them to help with. Julie is such a lovely lady and the personal touches and her caring nature, really shon through throughout all of the conversations and times we met. She did everything she could to make sure my Nannan’s final journey, was special.
Thank you again! I am extremely grateful xx

Delenoy Funeral Service go above and beyond for families at the worst time. In the space of 8 months they have done my dads and my mums funeral. I cannot fault the service they provide, the little details they put in place to make it as special as possible and the friendliness of John and Julie.

Without hesitation, we recommend this highly professional and dignified Funeral Service. John and Julie showed care, kindness and compassion to our family throughout our very sad bereavement. They worked with true dedication and commitment to give Dad the beautiful farewell he so deserved. We are very grateful for the supportive and personal approach they showed us. Thank you.

John and Julie was recommended by a neighbour after we sadly lost our baby boy who was born sleeping. We didn't have a clue what to do or what we wanted but John and Julie helped and supported us to make decisions. They really went above and beyond their role to ensure we was happy with our choices and we can not thank them enough for their services.

My family cannot speak highly enough of the kind, caring and empathetic service Delanoy Funeral Services provided to us all following the death of our beloved mam. The service and support provided was faultless from the moment they were contacted until the day of the funeral. Julie and John at Delanoy knew that mam was a long-standing Sunderland AFC ticket holder who followed the club home and away. Knowing how much the club meant to her, on the day before her funeral, Delanoy took her on one last trip to the Stadium of Light and made a beautiful short video of the visit. This was entirely at the behest of John and Julie and was a wonderful and emotional surprise for the whole family. It meant so much to us all. Mam would have been so thrilled and delighted. Thank you John and Julie. You are a credit to your profession.

Our family would like to thank Delanoy Funeral Services for the care they gave organising my Gran's Funeral, Mary Smith. Throughout the whole process, John and Julie were kind and considerate and were readily available to talk through arrangements and give advice. Nothing troubled them. They responded positively to all our family requests and their sensitive approach and attention to detail was greatly appreciated. On the day of the funeral, they and their team were highly supportive. Their dignity, expertise and professionalism shone through. In the midst of our bereavement and sadness they were definitely the right people to have alongside. We highly recommend them and once again say thank you to John, Julie and their team for their considerate, empathetic and supportive approach which culminated in a beautiful farewell for my Gran

I cannot thank John, Julie and the team enough for the wonderful send off they gave my Dad. Everything was so personalised and the attention to detail really captured the personality of my Dad. This was a great source of comfort to us, knowing that every aspect of the day had him at the heart of it. At such a tragic time for us as a family, they really looked after us and for that, we'll always be grateful. My Dad's funeral was lovely and heartfelt and I know he'd have appreciated everything so much. If you are planning a funeral for a loved one, you'll be in safe hands with Delanoy's.

Losing someone so close to your heart is the hardest moments to deal with. I can’t thank Delanoy Funeral Services enough. Julie and John have been our strength to help make our difficult time as a family nothing but ease. The professionalism, empathy and compassion they have shown, our family will never forget and most likely will never be able to repay our thanks.

With such an unexpected experience, Julie and John guided us through the process, step by step. Making sure that everything was perfect.

From all of our family, thank you for everything you’ve done and for helping us say our last goodbyes in such a memorable way which we will never forget.

Delanoy Funeral Services were wonderful; John & Julie offered a professional but very personal touch to their service & made a very sad occasion a celebration of the lovely person we lost. They made us feel comfortable to make the right decisions for us whilst giving us options when asked. I was recommended Delanoy Funeral Services by different friends who recently also sadly used them & we were definitely not disappointed, so just thank you very much!

From the minute we contacted delanoy to the moment my brother carl was laid to rest they showed the upmost compassion and respect to him and our family we cannot thank them enough for the kindness they showed throughout the whole experience we are so grateful as a family and really appreciate both Julie and John xxx

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.

We lost our little girl at 7 days old. John & Julie couldn’t help us enough. They were amazing, I honestly can’t recommend them enough. Everything I asked for just wasn’t an issue at all. Even little things such as she had a tonies box playing in the RVI & they made sure it was always on for her off there own backs we didn’t even have to ask. I wanted it all videoing & aimed towards her big brother so that he could watch it when he was older & so he felt included in it all & they did everything we asked & more. Everything was absolutely perfect. They went above and beyond to make sure our family & Saige-Ann were looked after. The room is absolutely beautiful & they took such good care of her.
Thank you so much for everything.
You have no idea the way you helped us in one of the hardest times in our lives.

Aidan Akira Moss

Julie and John helped immensely with my dad’s funeral earlier this year. They were professional, patient, highly responsive, kind and generous with their time. I didn’t know what to expect or how to navigate a death in the family, but they made everything clear and arranged things with a minimum of fuss. I was glad to have this team by my side at a difficult time. Recommend.

Kay Julie Gee

from the moment Delanoy's involvement began, just a few short hours after our adored Nana had peacefully passed away surrounded by love, to the time for saying a final goodbye at the funeral, everybody at Delanoys treated nana with the utmost dignity and respect. Ensuring that they were compassionate and supportive in every interaction we had with them. Thankyou to all for making sure that our family were supported and informed so professionally, and allowing us to have time to navigate one of the most difficult parts of life with the comfort and assurance that allowed this to be as worry-free as possible.

Just a massive thank you to Julie and John for a brilliant funeral from start to finish, everyone that attended commented on how beautiful the service was, and how beautiful the flower and vegetable box was that sat on top of the coffin once again thank you ❤️

I had no hesitation in contacting Delanoy funeral services after the previous experience we had with the passing of my mother.

I lost my soul partner Ian Calvert , the support and care through the most difficult of times helped me through. I could not recommend this service high enough to anyone.

The service from John and Julie is so personalised and second to none.

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.

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.
