Just wanted to say a massive thank you to Sam and his staff for the excellent service you provided to us and my mam. From the moment you picked up my mam at St. Joseph’s till the moment she was buried at Preston Cemetery, you did a wonderful job. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt we could approach you with any questions we had. We will be forever grateful.

I just wanted to say how much I appreciate all of Turnbull Funeral Directors’ work in organising my wife’s funeral arrangements, and in particular Matthew, Julia and Ben. Courteous and professional throughout, Helen’s family could not have had better quality of service and Helen could not have had a better sending. Thank you so so much for making an awfully difficult process go so well, not only on the day of the funeral but also in its preparation. Throughout the arrangements you were all there to help. You exceeded all of our expectations and then went about a million steps further. I would

I don't usually write reviews but I felt compelled to share our experience. As a family of 3 after losing our dad, we arrived at Turnbull's with very different thoughts about how we wanted to say goodbye. Matthew was kind and patient, listened to our concerns and hopes , took us slowly through our options and made suggestions until we got to a place where we were all happy. He introduced us to Naomi the flower girl (who is so talented) and Jessica Laing who delivered our dads Eulogy beautifully, capturing our dads life perfectly. Working together, the day felt very special. When we started thi

I would like to thank Turnbulls for their care and consideration at this difficult time. It can be very confusing, in fact it still is but Turnbulls helped me to understand all of the options available to me on the day of the funeral which reduced the stress enormously Kind regards Judi Robson

From the moment we contacted Turnbull’s Funeral Directors in North Shields, the care, compassion, and professionalism they showed was outstanding. They supported our family through one of the most difficult times of our lives with genuine kindness and respect. The service they provided for my dad, Ken, was handled with such dignity and attention to detail — it was exactly what he deserved. Special thanks must go to Ben, who went above and beyond to look after my mum and the rest of our family. His calm, reassuring presence and thoughtful guidance made all the difference and helped ease the we
