JOSEPH C ROBERTS REVIEWS
My stepdad passed away a week before Christmas so it wasn’t going to be easy, a very difficult time of year. After choosing Joseph C Roberts, Jonathan came out to see us. He was fabulous and put my mum at ease immediately so we knew my stepdad was in good hands..He guided us through the procedure with sensitivity and thoughtfulness. The business was started by Jonathan’s grandfather so the old family traditions have been kept up, this was evident throughout. Needless to say the funeral from start to finish was a success and my stepdad got the amazing send off he deserved. Thank you so much Jonathan and everyone at Joseph C Roberts.
100% Professional service, Jonathan went the extra mile for us to ensure it went off without any hitch. We are in Pontefract so it was not exactly local for them. That made no difference at all. Thank you very much I cannot recommend you and your business highly enough.Exactly what we wanted - Perfect.Kind regards and best wishesSteve and Sue Bell
Excellent service from start to finish. Jonathan could not have been kinder or more helpful following the death of my aunt. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

FULL CIRCLE FUNERALS HARROGATE REVIEWS
Having no knowledge of any local funeral directors, when my wife Sylvia passed away, my daughters and I had to act quickly. We had only the most indirect link with Full Circle so we took a leap of faith and went with them. We are so glad we did. David Moon and his team in Harrogate helped us to put together a service which had all the elements we requested and which drew praise from all who attended - including those who "attended" online, from all around the world. We felt that, not only was Sylvia cared for in the most sensitive and loving way, but that she was given a farewell which we could all be proud of. We could not have asked for more.
My sisters and I hadn't heard of Full Circle Funerals before our dad died. However, we are glad we decided to use them. We had a consistently positive experience, with David and colleagues supporting us throughout. We felt we were given a great balance of time and space to decide how we wanted the funeral to be, with gentle nudges and guidance at appropriate moments. Overall, a very sensitive and intelligent approach, with just the touches of modernity that we were looking for.
Full Circle Funerals came highly recommended to me after the sudden and tragic death of my husband. The empathy and care we were given in planning his Celebration Service and Cremation were second to none, nothing was too much trouble and everything was handled with sensitivity and tenderness at what was a traumatic time for me and my children. I'd recommend them.

H.C.TOWNSEND & SON LTD REVIEWS
I had had no experience of dealing with the death of a relative. Townsends were recommended to me by a friend and I would not hesitate to pass on this recommendation. They made everything as easy as possible and looked after us from start to finish. They are so kind and knowledgeable and I cannot thank them enough for arranging everything and making a sad day into a memorable one for all the right reasons, they truly are exceptional.
My Mother died 10 years ago and at the time my father used David and his company to look after her and, as he did such a thorough job, then it was only natural that we call upon David when my Father passed away suddenly last month. David’s care, attention and professionalism were absolutely second to none and we felt in very safe hands. We have had such lovely comments about my Dad’s service and yes, we had a major input in that but the service went very smoothly and we never once felt concerned. We can’t thank David and his team enough, they made a very trying and upsetting time just a little bit less so with their support.
My mother passed away after a long illness. I, being a true Yorkshireman, shopped around for prices. I specifically wanted a funeral directors which had their own cars and facilities rather than the funeral arrangers. I spoke to Ann Townsend and knew they were going to be my choice. I cannot praise her and David enough. Nothing was too much trouble and I found the whole process made easier with them behind you. I went to the chapel of rest and was delighted with how they presented Mum. Spot on! (She would have been delighted herself)! I don't go in for all this review stuff but I would recommend this family firm without hesitation. You'll be in great hands.
