Dear Barry and Everyone at B. Gibbs Funeral Services,

Thank you for so much for all of the advice, direction and support you gave us, when making the arrangements for our mum's Funeral Service. The Service was just as mum would have wanted and your kindness and attention to detail really helped make this possible. We appreciated how well you cared for mum in the Chapel of Rest and your Professional and Sympathetic Approach.

On the day of Service we felt you did a wonderful job (despite the weather), in helping us to give mum such a nice send off.

Dear Jason and Team,

We would like to say a heartfelt 'Thank You' for the way you and the rest of your colleagues at B. Gibbs Funeral Services handled my mums funeral, from the moment you took over looking after mum, to the organisation of the funeral, the kindness and professionalism shown, was outstanding. Helen the Celebrant and Jason were always there to answer any queries and to make sure everything ran smoothly, leaving us to be able to say 'Goodbye' to mum without additional stress. Thank you again.

As a family, we cannot recommend B. Gibbs Funeral Services highly enough. Jason took care of my brother, James' funeral, and us as a family. From the very beginning, we were offered high-quality care, compassion, and time. Nothing was too much trouble and the respect and dignity that everything was handled were outstanding. We will be eternally grateful for your empathy and kindness at such a very sad time. Thank you to everyone who supported Jason in caring for my darling brother.

It was in my deep hour of sadness that I had to choose a Funeral Director for my late husband, Michael. I am so pleased I chose B. Gibbs Funeral Services. From the moment I telephone, the caring personal words and kind thoughts were amazing. The pressure of organising Michael's wishes were all taken care of, whatever we chose for Michael was noted and confirmed within hours. 
I can only say a huge THANK YOU for the tremendous service you give. 
Everything was to perfection, it was a wonderful send off and exactly what Michael would have approved of with pride.

A big heartfelt thank you to the lovely, warm Jason and highly skilled Celebrant Helen, who helped to make my brother’s funeral so special, last week. All matters were discussed with great care and knowledgeably, including excellent recommendations for flowers and our Celebrant Helen. The whole service went smoothly, we were kept informed and reassured continually, by warm and sympathetic staff. My brother would have been so proud to have known that his family and friends were able to experience such a wonderful send off. We would highly recommend B. Gibb Funeral Services . Thank you so much.

Dear Jason and team,

I just wanted to write a quick note to say thank you so much for your care and support at this difficult time. Mum said that you were the Funeral Directors to use and I can see why. Your personal touch and the little extra's that you added in terms of checking that we were always ok, meant so much. The funeral, although extremely difficult, was also beautiful and we have you to thank for that. I think mum would of been very proud and pleased with how it went.

Many Thanks again,

Suzie Chastell (P.A. Tatworth)
