We would like to thank John and Julie for everything they have done for us during the worst time of our lives, we as a family could not ask for more, they honestly went above and beyond to give our mam the best send off she deserved, the tribute video Julie did was out of this world everyone said how beautiful it was and it’s something we will keep forever, they are both so down to earth and make you so at easy with everything, we will be forever grateful for what you done for us and our beautiful mam, thank you again from all of Barbara’s family xxx

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.

There’s not enough words to describe the amazing service we received from Julie & John from the initial early morning call to scattering our mums ashes. You both listened so carefully to each detail & even helped find the most perfect music & flowers. Thank you both for allowing me & my daughter to take our time to say our final farewells to her, we really needed that time, understanding, patience & empathy.
Thank you both for everything❤️

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

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.

John and Julie led a truly moving funeral for my mother in law, Doris Bone. At every stage of the process, their calm professionalism made the preparations simple and manageable. They brought a calm dignity to the funeral and we could not have had a better service. Thank you for all you did for us.

Delanoy Funeral Service supported me through one of the hardest times of my life.
Julie and John are both such warm, compassionate people and helped put together the funeral my dad deserved. Their support, patience and guidance throughout the whole process was amazing. They offer a bespoke service and the tribute video they created for my dad was beautiful and unique. Both Julie and John went above and beyond and on behalf of the family and myself, would like to thank them both. You offer a truly amazing service xxx

On behalf of Lawrence Mc Donald's family I would like to express our heartfelt thanks to John and Julie .At a distressing time they have supported the family with great respect and professionalism. Dad's requiem mass was beautiful with touches suggested by John and Julie. They also conducted my Mams funeral (Doris) a year ago with the same attention. Excellent communication is a trademark of their service and ongoing support. Thank you so much for everything you have done for the family.

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.

I used Delanoys 9 years ago for my Dad, and just recently for my Mam.
I can't praise highly enough, they lead you through the process by hand, there's no need to worry about anything. I felt both times my loved ones were in good care which is a massive comfort.

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.

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.
