SPECIALIST IN HINDU FUNERAL RITUALS
Amazing service from Tricia at the Croydon branch. She went above and beyond to provide the best send off for my dad. Tricia was very clear in her communication and also very supportive. John, the funeral director led the proceedings with utmost respect and compassion. Heather, the celebrant, took lots of time to craft the words of the service and they reflected perfectly my dad's brilliant life. It really was an outstanding celebration of life, thanks to the efficient, kind and respectful service I received from J B Shakespeare.

On the first anniversary of my uncle's death, I still remember the wonderful service I received from J B Shakespeare. I am based in Scotland so funeral arrangements had to be made by phone/email. Tricia and Peter were so caring, kind and supportive, and they thought of everything. On the day of the funeral, they placed a framed photograph of my uncle on the coffin. I wasn't expecting this and it was such a lovely tribute. I really appreciated Peter's calming presence at the funeral. He is the perfect blend of friendly yet professional, and he ensured that everything went smoothly and quietly. With many thanks.

Tricia and the team were excellent in helping us arrange our mums funeral. They were sensitive, professional and happy to answer any of our queries. They chose a perfect celebrant Grace to do our service.
Thank you to J B Shakespeare for showing such kindness and compassion at such a sad time.
