A big thank you to John and Julie of Delanoy Funeral Services for their expertise, knowledge,and care in organising the funeral of John Anderson of Easington Village on January 20th. It was a very emotional time for all our family but every aspect of his funeral was taken care of by John and Julie, they couldn’t do enough to cater for our needs and wishes. We always said when dad passes he was going to have a special send off and he did.
A special thanks to the vicar Lucy Moss for her eulogy and funeral service, all who were there commented on the lovely send off John had. Thanks again to Delanoy Funeral Services for their professionalism at a difficult time.

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!

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.

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.

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. If you find yourself needing their services, then you will be in amazing hands.

From the moment our mam passed away, John & Julie have been there to support and respect our mam’s last wishes every single day. The care and compassion shown has been exceptional to ourselves and our family. Delanoy thrived to ensure our mams final farewell was personalised and fulfilled to the fine details.
The video that was created provided precious and lasting memories for ourselves, grandchildren and great children.
We would highly recommend Delanoy Funeral Services.

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.

I have asked Delanoy’s on three occasions to arrange the funerals of my loved ones. They are very professional but also down to earth and very caring. Even Hospice staff have said they had never dealt with funeral services as caring as Delanoy’s. I would highly recommend them.

My nana Amanda Robinson died at the age of 55.
She’s all I’ve ever known and was a second mum to me, John and Julie did absolutely amazing and she had such an amazing day because of them.

They cared for her and us as a family and we wouldn’t have gotten through it without their support. They both are amazing at what they do and should be so proud of the support they have behind them

Well done x

I couldn't fault a single thing with the service we received. Julie and the staff were incredible. They went over and above and made everything go like clock work. I could not speak more highly. Service was personal, courteous and respectful. We weren't handling the situation well but the patience and care we received was second to non, done with kindness and compassion. Thank you so so much.

I would highly recommend Delanoy funeral services, Julie, John and the team went above and beyond for my mams funeral the detail and the extent they go to is amazing. Nothing was a problem and always happy to answer calls and texts when we needed them.
Our tribute video and street footage are amazing keepsakes and detail again was just something else not forgetting Julie and John travelling to my mams favourite place in the Lakes to make our video that extra special.
All the children where made to feel at ease throughout.
Thank you so much for everything, you done us as a family very proud and my beautiful Mam! Anna & Family xxxx

Delanoys Funeral services, we're fantastic. They went above and beyond to help me and my family through a very difficult time. Excellent service and communication, I would highly recommend them.

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

Toni Longstaff

There simply aren’t the words to express our Thanks to Julie & John. Over the past month Delanoys have gone above & beyond to ensure our Dad’s wishes were honoured. Dad was treated with dignity & the empathy shown towards us simply could not be matched. The knowledge & care whilst arranging our Dads final journey was a huge comfort knowing if Dad was here, it would have received his approval. From their first visit to the day of the funeral, nothing was too much. We simply cannot recommend Delanoys enough, on behalf of Joe Stout’s family, Thank You from the bottom of our hearts.

Joan Collard

John and Julie and their team were exceptional from first contact through to the final funeral day. I would not hesitate to recommend their services to anyone. The service they provided was professional and efficient and always personal and caring. Their care and compassion was a great support to us.They guided us step by step through a stressful experience, nothing was too much trouble and they helped us to carry out the last wishes of a much loved mother. They ensured that everything ran smoothly and every detail was taken care of. Their sensitive and respectful approach gave us absolute confidence to entrust them with the care of our loved one. Our visit to the Chapel of Rest was hugely comforting to the family and enabled us to say our last goodbyes in a tranquil and dignified setting. 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.
