Delanoys funeral place are amazing John and Julie’s were just brilliant made everything so easy absolutely brilliant people friendly warm helped me any way they could ❤️❤️❤️

The loss of a loved one is extremely hard but it helps if you receive care and support at this time. In this regard, as a family, we were so grateful for the help of John and Julie. They guided us through the process and came up with useful suggestions on setting up the funeral arrangements. Everyone we spoke to afterwards were complimentary on the service, in particular, the video of a life well spent by dad (jack). Our thanks to John and Julie for making a difficult day bearable and providing our family with memories of dad which will never go away.

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 and the whole team at Delanoy Funeral Services were absolutely excellent. They made a very difficult time as easy as possible with a first class, friendly, sympathetic and respectful service.
Julie's video tribute to Ron was perfect. A touching tribute to him, which he'd have loved. Julie was so innovative and imaginative in producing something with unexpected touches throughout.
This was the first experience I have personally had with Delanoy's but my mother has family ties with the company going back generations, so we knew they were a long-established and well respected company.
They were very responsive. Prompt and accomodating of everything we wanted. Both of us would highly recommend their service to anyone.
Thank you for everything you have done for us.

Another fantastic service of John Delanoy and Julie from Delanoy Funeral Services myself and 3 other family members been up to durham crematorium for a direct cremation of a uncle although it was only a direct cremation it's what the deceased wanted no fuss.John brought him up in the hearse other company's where just coming in cars or vans walked him into the crematorium put flowers and photo on the coffin at no extra cost and let us even sit with our uncle for couple of mins and played music absolutely fantastic service from them.x

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Julie and John and their team made us feel like we where family and they where ours been completely compassionate to us losing a daughter and sister they went above and beyond to help us grieve despite having problems to bring a loved one home they went to end the earth to make everything we wished for come true to send our beloved Becca off in the most special way we could have imagined full of dignity and respect a truly beautiful day for a beautiful soul made special by incredible people we will forever hold you both close in our hearts thank you from all the family of Becca luke xx

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.

Hi John and Julie,

Thank you so much for everything you did, in supporting me and the family, after Dad died.

As funeral directors, I know that it's your job but the advice, care and attention to detail, helped me enormously while coming to terms with my Dads death.

You treat my Dad as if he was a member of your own family and we couldn't have asked for anything more.

I'll be eternally grateful for the kindness and care you showed.

Bless you both.

On behalf of the family of the late Margaret Gillespie I would like to thank John, Julie and all their staff for the support they gave to us after the passing of our Aunty. Aunty Margaret died in North Tees Hospital and she was buried in Kilcar, Co. Donegal, Fire.
John and Julie organised and advised us on the funeral arrangements here with thoughtfulness and compassion.
We were kept informed of Aunty Margaret's repatriation throughout on her journey back to Ireland. For all of this we are truly grateful.
Thank you John and Julie.
