Dear John and Julie
We are deeply grateful for your kindness, understanding and support during this very difficult time. Your compassion and professionalism and the way that you made such a difficult time easier for us is without measure. Your compassion during our initial consultation was a great comfort to us and your thoughtful advice and unwavering guidance helped the family to navigate a very challenging period in our lives. You arranged mams funeral , creating a very meaningful and personal journey that truly honoured our wonderful mam , and for that we say thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

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

My Family and I, would like to thank Delanoy Funeral Service for their unwavering support during a very difficult time on the passing of my Dad (Tony Curry). John and Julie are so easy to talk to and very compassionate, and dignified. They fully respected our families wishes and gave us the best advice to ease our loss. A special thank you to Julie for her lovely thoughtful words at the crematorium service. We would 100% recommend Delanoy Funeral Services.

I can’t even put into words how thankful we are of John and Julie, they went above and beyond to take care of uncle Owen and also the care and compassion they showed towards the family during this difficult time was something else, honestly we as a family can’t thank you enough for everything during in this sad time x

Terri Willetts

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.

Lindsay Smith

We would like to thank John, Julie & their wonderful team for everything they done for us during the worst time of our lives. It is obvious how much they care & their attention to detail is unmatched. They gave our beautiful Mam/Nana the best send off and we are eternally grateful. We could not have asked for more.

Donna Fairless

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.

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.

We would like to thank John,Julie, and the Delanoy team for giving guidance, and support to my family at the this very difficult time. The funeral was explained and every detail was covered making the day as she would have wanted it. I would highly recommend the Delanoy team for their professionalism, compassion, and support throughout.

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.

Frances Boyd

During your saddest times Julie and John are the people you need. Julie’s incredible and genuine warmth and John’s quiet, reassuring professionalism will navigate you through this awful time. Nothing is too much trouble and no question is too silly. Always contactable you’re made to feel like you’re their only priority. We felt so fortunate to have found them and to have been able to entrust our mum to them. Everything was so beautifully, tastefully and respectfully orchestrated. We could not have been more pleased with how the day went and we cannot thank them enough.

Susan Peters

From the moment we engaged Delanoy Funeral Services the attention given to us as a family was not only professional but personal. Throughout the entire process John and Julie supported us beyond what we could have ever expected. There was no question too big or too small. Every detail was impeccable from the passing of Fred to laying him to rest. The personal touches given by John and Julie put us all at ease - they went above and beyond especially on the day of the funeral, making sure every element was perfect.
The effort in the background ensured that we had nothing to worry about as we could trust it was all being dealt with which took a lot of the worry away in what was a very difficult time for us as a family. The flowers were all just perfect, the order of service exactly as we requested and on the day of the funeral we could not have asked for anything more.
From the bottom of our hearts we will be forever grateful of the amazing support and service.

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.

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.

This morning, we said goodbye to Mark Jepson “Jeppa” a much loved and dedicated Sunderland supporter.

Mark sadly passed away just two months after losing his mother, and we felt it was only right to give him a memorable send-off that was personal to him and reflected the love so many had for him.

A massive thank you to Sunderland AFC and the Heaven Branch for your support today. It meant so much and helped make his farewell truly special.

I am so sorry to hear this. Marilyn and I would occasionally text each other. She would keep me informed of the happenings in England. She always thought of other folks. Her last message to me ended with, "Take care pet." Just typical of her character. I am so very sad. RIP Marilyn you are an Easington Icon.

RIP Marilyn sincere condolences to Jimmy,family and friends. Great girl and did so much for families during the 84/85 miners strike.

Such sad news, RIP Marilyn, condolences to Jimmy and the family. 💔 xxx
