Thankyou for an excellent service. John and Julie have supported myself and family through the whole process even when changes were needed. I would highly recommend to anyone, thank you
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.
I could not rate Delanoy Funeral Services highly enough. The service they provided my family in preparation for my Dad's funeral was exemplary. Julie and John went above and beyond to make our sad occasion more bearable. I would recommend them to everyone.
Delenoy Funeral Service go above and beyond for families at the worst time. In the space of 8 months they have done my dads and my mums funeral. I cannot fault the service they provide, the little details they put in place to make it as special as possible and the friendliness of John and Julie.
Sent from the Smith family,

Delanoy funeral services are outstanding! They show great empathy and understanding. John guided us every step of the way. The attention to detail and thinking ahead to help the family at a sad time is amazing. Thank you to John, Julie and the team. A well deserved five star review.
This funeral service is second to none. We really can't thank John and Julie enough following the funeral of my father, Ian Berry. They treated us with the utmost respect and compassion throughout this difficult time, giving us their professional advice while accommodating our requests and wishes. Nothing was too much trouble for them, their priority was our happiness with the service they provided, which has gone beyond the actual funeral. They gave Ian a send off to be proud of, for which we'll be eternally grateful.
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.

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!
Five star service from this firm.
Very professional, attentive kind and caring. Would definitely recommend.
Can't recommend Delanoy funeral services enough! They were so helpful and respectful of all our needs. They made the whole process which was so hard more bearable.
Top class service. Thank you
Delanoy Funeral Services recently arranged my father’s funeral. John and Julie made the whole process so much easier than it could have been. They were sensitive, caring and compassionate when dealing with myself and my family and offered a totally bespoke service with some wonderfully personal touches. They even got up at sunrise to take my father on a drive past his favourite places and made a very touching video of this which we have watched several times and really helped us with the grieving process. These people really care about what they do. They are professional, caring and totally aware of the importance of their role to grieving families. On top of that their bill was very reasonable indeed. I can not recommend them highly enough or thank them enough for what they did.
I can honestly say from the moment my brother died Julie and John were so amazing helping us to give. Him the best send off from the singer which I have to say was amazing and made it more special the tribute that Julie put together for my brother was outstanding showed all his life in an amazing way he had the best send off and would of been so proud how everything was done I could not thank Julie and John enough for making the day so beautiful ❤️
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

John, Julie and the whole team did an amazing job for my husbands funeral. From start to finish they handled everything. I would highly recommend them. Thank you for all your support and making the funeral go so smoothly. Their service is excellent
I would heartily recommend Delanoy Funeral Services. They have dealt with both my parents' funerals in the last two months, and have handled both with immense compassion and care. Both John and Julie managed the process with me with the utmost respect. The services were flawless, the flowers amazing and the catering services faultless. My thanks to you both.

Very highly recommended
Julie spoke to my girls a couple of days ago to see if they were okay and they made it very special by including a video for memories they made the girls included in the video showing there necklaces of their mam what a lovely touch they are the best and always looked out for us 5 star service!
I would like to thank John & Julie and staff from Delanoy Funeral services for the services that they provided for my brother and most recently sister in laws funeral.
Now some reviews give you an idea of how customer focused a business is. All the staff at Delanoy funeral services are amazing we would not have been able to give my sister in law the sending off we wanted had it not been for John & Julie. I would not recommend a service especially a one where you only get to do it once but you will not be disappointed with their service.

THANK YOU John & Julie, I will never be able to thank you enough for your above and beyond service and help that you gave me and my family. Truly helpful caring people.
I can't thank Julie and John enough for the fantastic service they provided. From the initial meeting on the day of passing to the funeral day. They showed great empathy and consideration for me and my family at such an emotional time. There service is second to none. Regards Nancy Stewart
Hi, we were helped smoothly through the whole process of our fathers funeral and burial by Julie and John who made things easy to suit our wishes - many thanks & highly recommend

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
The entire process was brilliant, the finer details really separate Delanoy and other directors. It felt so incredibly personal and you could tell a great deal of care and attention went into every aspect of the funeral. From special touches with music that we have never seen before to an incredible tribute video, is it bad to say I look forward to them planning my funeral?
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.

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.

I am writing to express our deepest gratitude for the exceptional care and support John and Julie provided for my mam's, Phoebe Lloyd funeral. From our first meeting to the service itself, your compassion, patience, and professionalism were a tremendous comfort to us.
We appreciated Emma the celebrant for how beautifully the service was conducted, the sensitivity of the staff, the thoughtful way you handled the arrangements, It was clear how much care you put into honoring my mam, Phoebe Lloyd life, and we received many comments from family and friends about how perfect the service was
Thank you so much, John and Julie.

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.

A beautiful final farewell for former miner Martin Jones today in Easington.

Martin loved the Durham Big Meeting, the brass bands, and everything the mining community stood for. It was a real honour to have the Miners’ Banner out for him today.

Thank you to Alan Cummings for arranging for the banner to be there, and to the brass band players who came along to support us and Martin’s family. Your presence meant so much.
