Melanie Potts

We cannot thank John, Julie and their staff enough for all their help, kindness, compassion and understanding. They helped make a very heartbreaking time a little easier. Natalie’s pink coffin was beautiful and just what we wanted for her and the pink ties worn by John and Julie were a lovely, unexpected addition. We were also touched by the lovely post on their Facebook page, helping to share our sad news.

Terri Willetts

My father passed away on the 10th of April he had a pre paid funeral plan which made my life so much easier at a terrible time. John and Julie were absolutely amazing through out the whole process and did not falter. They rang me text me and visited through out the whole process. Their attention to detail was amazing. When you are in such a vulnerable place you need someone to rely on and trust. John and Julie were those people, I felt comforted and safe under their care. My dad would have been so grateful for their support as am I.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for making my dads send off the best it could have been. Terri & family.

At the most difficult of times, John and Julie were brilliant. They were kind, thoughtful, considerate and have wonderful ideas to fill the gaps where I just didn't have a clue.

3 years ago Delanoys provided their service for my mothers funeral and back then their service was excellent, both John and Julie provided a beautiful send off for her.
On the 14th November this year we said our goodbyes to my father and John and Julie were there to give a personal send off.
From the moment we set off it was exactly as I could imagine my father would have wanted, the little touches that they made were so lovely and thoughtful.
Myself and my family would like to thank John and Julie but also to all the staff who were very courteous, friendly and professional.
It was a difficult day but went very smoothly thanks to Delanoys funeral services.
For that myself and my family are very grateful.

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.

Erin Rowan

John and Julie helped my family and I through the toughest time of our lives. From day 1 they were kind, caring, compassionate although very professional. We unexpectedly and very sadly lost my brother in May and the time he spent in the hands of Delanoy’s I know he was treated with respect and love, John went above and beyond for us as a family when visiting my brother with a little touch of spraying his aftershave in the viewing area which brought great comfort to me and my family. We cannot repay John and Julie for the amazing service provided throughout and the constant communication at any time of day which is extremely helpful for a grieving family, nothing is a bother to them. I would wholeheartedly recommend Delanoy Funeral services. Thank you again x

Jill Hammond

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 ❤️

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.

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.

Frances Boyd

During your saddest times Julie and John are the people you need. Julie’s incredible and genuine warmth and John’s quiet, reassuring professionalism will navigate you through this awful time. Nothing is too much trouble and no question is too silly. Always contactable you’re made to feel like you’re their only priority. We felt so fortunate to have found them and to have been able to entrust our mum to them. Everything was so beautifully, tastefully and respectfully orchestrated. We could not have been more pleased with how the day went and we cannot thank them enough.

Today we said farewell to our dad. Julie and John navigated us through the whole process and the day itself so professionally and with such empathy. We cannot thank them enough and we highly recommend Delanoy Funeral Services. X

Elaine Gillespie

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.

Thank you, John, Julie and all the Delanoy’s team, for guiding our family through a difficult time. Your professional approach, patience and knowledge allowed dad to have the funeral he and mam had planned. Using a local funeral director who has supported our family for generations made it so personal for us all and you fully understood what we wanted to achieve. Dad’s funeral was a memorable and emotional day thanks to your attention to detail and TLC. We can’t thank you enough!

Would like to say a heartfelt thank you to John and Julie and team. At a difficult time you arranged every detail of my dad’s funeral perfectly, showing kindness and helping me through every step of the way.
Flowers were absolutely amazing, and the compassion and support you both showed me on the day of my dad’s funeral was outstanding.
No amount of words can express my gratitude for the care you showed me throughout. Every wish was carried out to a very high standard and I really couldn’t have asked for more.
Highly recommend John & Julie Delanoy Funeral Services

Outstanding service when you need it most. Delanoy were both empathetic and accommodating, taking all the hassle out of the arrangements in what is a very difficult time. I can't recommend Delanoy Funeral Services enough. John, Julie and their team are fantastic.

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.
