We used Philip Evans funeral for my dad who died a month ago. From the second I called them, they were so kind, helpful and honest. They treated my dad and my family with respect, care and dignity. All of my contacts with Tony, Martin, Laura and Philip were exceptionalThere was no hard sell, they knew what we wanted and needed and got it done. Even the little touches when we went for a viewing were heartwarming. Everyone made a difficult time a lot easierThank you everyone

I cannot recommend Philip and Tony enough. Their patience, advice and support were tremendous. I never felt things were too much trouble or seemed rushed in anyway. At a time of grief and sadness their gentleness was encompassing. Philip is everything you could hope for in a celebrant, tailored to your own requirements. They both made a very sad time, smoother and gentler.

The whole process from start to finish with Tony and his Team was excellent. As a family, we could not have asked for more. They cared and showed immense compassion for us and our Dad's Final send off. I would certainly have no hesitation in recommending Philip Evans Funeral Services. The celebrant Debbie Martin was also excellent in her delivery. We were kept updated and informed throughout. Thank you all once again for your first class service.

I can not say enough good things about Philip Evans Funeral service, I live in the US and recently lost my mum, from the first phone call to the actual service they were fantastic, helping me through the process and also suggesting some ideas that I hadn?t thought of. You are using there services because you have lost a loved one, so it?s not an easy time, they make you feel like family during the process. Philip captured my mum perfectly, one of my friends commented it was the perfect balance between laugher and sadness. Which was exactly what we were looking for. Thank you Tony and Philip

I have no hesitation in recommending this company. From the time of contact following the death of my mother, the staff were so kind and did everything to help my family through a difficult time. The funeral service was perfect, it was not a sad occasion but was uplifting and comforting, all due to the careful planning and conduct of Philip Evans, Tony Allen and their staff. I can't thank them enough.

Thankfully when my dad passed away in September he had wanted to use Philip Evans. Philip and Tony were there every step of the way. Always on the end of the phone and there in person to offer support and guidance not only on matters regarding the funeral and service but advise on looking after myself at a very difficult time. They really seemed to care and supported me to give my dad the perfect send off. I can?t thank them enough and would highly recommend them to others.

Tony initially with everything with such professionalism and calmness, just when I needed him most. He took away all of the worry and concerns I had when my mum passed away in the care home. He was so calming and respectful and I just knew I had no concerns. Both Philip and Tony guided me through how to give my mum the perfect send off and I had comments like 'this was the happiest funeral I have been to'. The service Philip took was excellent, putting us all at ease by saying just the right words. Nothing was too much trouble. I couldn't recommend Philip Evans Funeral Directors enough. Thank you does not do them justice.

Excellent service at our time on need. Tony and Philip were excellent from start to finish.We have been to several funerals that have conducted and they were the obvious choice.We contacted them the day after our dad passed away Tony took the stress out of bringing my dad to their care, he guided us through everything and arranged to meet us a few days later, everything was conducted with courtesy and professionalism.No hard sell and they assisted with a military style funeral and we appreciated the input from Phil to get it just right.They assisted with absolutely everything and were always at the other end of the phone.They arranged an evening viewing on both occasions and when they dressed my dad. They were fantastic throughout and made my mum and all the family feel welcome and wanted.The presentation on my dad was impeccable with his RAF hut beautifully presented on a drape and candle in the corner.They advised us on the deterioration of him, this shows how above and beyond they went.The funeral day was great, we were allowed to walk behind the coffin and the presentation in the hearse was excellent.The team recommended a minister who was excellent and a bugler who was out of this world to play the last post.After the service it was unhurried and Phil spent time talking to all of us and even when we went back to the house he was so professional and made my son feel special.Thank you Phil and Tony for caring for my dad and taking pride in your work. We must of been a pain but they day went well and you made my dad look amazing.I would recommend you to anyone.RegardsNathan and the family..

My family and I will be forever grateful to Philip, Tony and the team, for all their professional skills but particularly their understanding and guidance in helping us to plan my wife's funeral service. Since she held no religious beliefs we were uncertain as to how the service could best be structured, but with their sound and sympathetic advice the result was a celebration of her life that all those attending agreed was so totally fitting. And all praise to Philip for his conduct of the service, striking exactly the right note of inevitable sadness tempered by the happiness of her life that we were there to celebrate.
