Delanoy Funeral Services were friendly, professional, sensitive and very supportive with our wishes for my beautiful mams send off. They made a very hard day easy. They handled everything for us so we didn't have to worry about a thing. The visual tribute played in church was a special touch. Thank you John, Julie and the Team. 5 Star Service.
We, as a family, would like to express our heartfelt thanks to John and Julie at Delanoys Funeral Directors for all the care, compassion, and support you have shown us during such a difficult time.

You both truly went above and beyond to make everything as easy and comforting as possible for our family. Your professionalism, kindness, and attention to every detail from start to finish were exceptional. Organising a band for Marty’s farewell made the service even more special, and every detail was carried out perfectly.

Thank you again for everything you have done for us. It will never be forgotten.

I’m so pleased I chose Delanoy Funeral Services to assist with arrangements after the loss of my dad. The whole process was made much more bearable due to John and Julie’s friendly, caring and sympathetic approach. They looked after myself and my family from day 1. Their knowledge and professionalism shines through and together they made my dad’s funeral a day I know he would have been proud of, with some extra personal touches. I wouldn’t hesitate in using their services again (although hopefully not for a long time!) and will definitely recommend. Thank you so much!
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 ❤️
From the moment we met John and Julie, we knew choosing Delanoy Funeral Services was the right decision. Their professional and friendly demeanour shone through, as they guided us each step of the way. They went above and beyond, even matching their ties on the day of the funeral to my sisters favourite colour. It's those little touches that make you realise they care! We would highly recommend their services, as they made a difficult day perfect, and we can't thank them enough. 🙏

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!
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.

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.

We all know that death is inevitable but when it happens to one of our loved ones our world falls apart, our hearts break and we are left feeling devastated and lost. Julie and John at Delanoy funeral services were there for us at this most terrifying time to help us with our loss and sort out the funeral of our dad with love, care and empathy. Julie and John treated our dad like one of their own family and we could not have put our trust in any one better. They looked after my dad and saw that he was treated in death, with the respect that he deserved. They nurtured my bereaved mum and our family with kindness, patience and the utmost professionalism. They took time to explain procedures and gave us options in how we wanted to celebrate the life of our dad and honour his memory. Everything was taken care of and we knew what to expect at all times. Julie and John went over and above to ensure that dad’s service was a testimonial to the life he lived and even organised a bespoke floral tribute to reflect his love of gardening. Although our hearts were breaking, Julie and John were there to kindly support us through this difficult time and ensure that our final goodbye to him was perfect. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart Julie and John, our family will never forget the love and support you showed us when we didn’t know where to turn.

I would definitely recommend Delanoy Funeral Services, Julie & John are both expectional people, such a kind hearted couple who went above & beyond for me nothing was to much! Having never gone through losing a loved one before I called delanoy for there help & they were at my home within the hour, they were there for me in my hour of need with such compassion yet professionalism, they were always in touch throughout the whole process of arranging my husbands funeral constantly checking in & making sure I was ok! The day of his funeral couldn't of been any better if they tried, every single thing down to the smallest detail was amazing under the circumstances, what a beautiful send off he had, we as a family couldn't be any more grateful to them, there is no words! & ohh my Julie made him a wonderful tribute video & what a job she did with it, she put in so much time & effort I will never be able to thank her as much as I'd truly like to.. 10 out of 10 service from Delanoy Funeral Services! Incredible people 5 star plus from us!
Thank you so much for everything..

I would definitely like to recommend Delanoy Funeral Services as everything went so smoothly start to end. John and Julie were very kind, respectful and very caring people when it comes to doing this. Yours definitely helped towards giving my nana (Alison) a great send off. They even went the extra mile having red and white ties for my nana who was a Sunderland fan. So I would 100% recommend Delanoy Funeral Services! Huge thanks John and Julie

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.

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.

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.
