★★★★★
I can't recommend Walkers highly enough. They (above all Damon) were both wonderfully caring and incredibly well-organized. From the first meeting through to the aftermath, we had a really excellent experience. Nothing was too much trouble, and everything was done promptly and efficiently. And we always felt that the central point of the whole process, to say farewell to our father, was kept at the centre of everything that was discussed, thought and done. Thank you so much.
★★★★★
The service we received after our Dad passed away from Walkers Funeral Directors was exemplary in every aspect. Damon, assisted by Megan went above and beyond with both caring for our family and explaining what would happen in the weeks ahead. Always so professional in their approach with families, but also showing great kindness to us all in such a sad time, we cannot thank Damon enough. Nothing was too much trouble for them to arrange. We knew previously their reputation for excellence in their field, but having experienced it first hand, we would recommend it to everyone in their time of ne
★★★★★
We were treated with the utmost respect and empathy from everyone we came into contact with. The professionalism shown was exceptional from beginning to end. Damon gave us an exemplary service and nothing was too much trouble this certainly made a very upsetting time a little more bearable as he took away any worries we had. Thank you
★★★★★
From first contact Damon has been outstanding, there was no stress or hassle he thinks of everything for you & so organised nothing was too much trouble would definitely recommend to everyone
★★★★★
Would I recommend Walkers Funeral Directors? Absolutely 110%. From the very first phone call with Damon it was like a weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. He took whatever stress he could away whilst guiding me through the arrangements with sincerity and professionalism. The resulting service and wake were exactly what I wanted for my brother, thanks to his knowledge and understanding. I can't thank Damon enough, he definitely went above and beyond, I know I couldn't have done it without him.
