What an amazing funeral directors John and Julie are, I’ve used them on 2 occasions now and couldn’t think of ever using anyone else. The send off for Brian was absolutely incredible. From the first time John and Julie came out on the saddest day of our lives they treat us with warmth, kindness and respect. They took everything we wanted on board and went above and beyond to make the funeral one to remember. It may have been the saddest day, however it was a day no one will ever forget. From the tiny touching details to the video making. They’re always available for anything you need answering. They made this whole funeral so easy. I can’t thank them enough. I have and always will continue to recommend.

Once again thank you to you both for everything you’ve done for us.

From Deb, Kirsty and the Noble Family 🧡🧡

Just to say a very special thankyou to all of those at Delanoy Funeral Services.
John, Julie & the fellas went above and beyond for not just my Nana Mac but also for my family too.
I had never gotten to see my Nana in the chapel of rest but from what I’ve been told by my Nanas brothers & sisters, she had looked beautiful and at peace ♥️.
So from myself, my mam & sister - Thankyou so much x

I cant thank John and his team enough. They took care of everything from start to finish. My mam couldnt have been in better hands. Thanks so very much for your professional, friendly and compassionate services. You, John are truly a gentleman and made our family feel comfortable, safe and secure in the knowledge that our mam was absolutely looked after on a very distressing and sad day.

The loss of a loved one is extremely hard but it helps if you receive care and support at this time. In this regard, as a family, we were so grateful for the help of John and Julie. They guided us through the process and came up with useful suggestions on setting up the funeral arrangements. Everyone we spoke to afterwards were complimentary on the service, in particular, the video of a life well spent by dad (jack). Our thanks to John and Julie for making a difficult day bearable and providing our family with memories of dad which will never go away.

As a care home we can not thank John and Julie enough for their care, support, compassion and effort they put into giving our Tommy the best send off he deserved. They made time to ensure we were kept involved from the beginning and treated Tommy with dignity and respect from the very start until the very end. We are forever grateful to you and your staff who all played a part in today 💙

Delanoy Funeral Service supported me through one of the hardest times of my life.
Julie and John are both such warm, compassionate people and helped put together the funeral my dad deserved. Their support, patience and guidance throughout the whole process was amazing. They offer a bespoke service and the tribute video they created for my dad was beautiful and unique. Both Julie and John went above and beyond and on behalf of the family and myself, would like to thank them both. You offer a truly amazing service xxx

I would definitely recommend Delanoy Funeral Services, Julie & John are both expectional people, such a kind hearted couple who went above & beyond for me nothing was to much! Having never gone through losing a loved one before I called delanoy for there help & they were at my home within the hour, they were there for me in my hour of need with such compassion yet professionalism, they were always in touch throughout the whole process of arranging my husbands funeral constantly checking in & making sure I was ok! The day of his funeral couldn't of been any better if they tried, every single thing down to the smallest detail was amazing under the circumstances, what a beautiful send off he had, we as a family couldn't be any more grateful to them, there is no words! & ohh my Julie made him a wonderful tribute video & what a job she did with it, she put in so much time & effort I will never be able to thank her as much as I'd truly like to.. 10 out of 10 service from Delanoy Funeral Services! Incredible people 5 star plus from us!
Thank you so much for everything..

Delanoy Funeral Services provided truly exceptional care during such a difficult time for our family. From the very beginning, they were kind, patient, and incredibly compassionate, which made a world of difference to us.

They took the time to really listen and understand what we wanted, and it was clear that they genuinely cared about every detail. Seeing my mam in the chapel was both emotional and comforting — she looked absolutely beautiful, and her hair was done to perfection. That meant so much to us.

A heartfelt thank you to John, Julie, and the entire team for their support, kindness, and professionalism. We are so grateful for everything you did.

A big thank you to John and Julie of Delanoy Funeral Services for their expertise, knowledge,and care in organising the funeral of John Anderson of Easington Village on January 20th. It was a very emotional time for all our family but every aspect of his funeral was taken care of by John and Julie, they couldn’t do enough to cater for our needs and wishes. We always said when dad passes he was going to have a special send off and he did.
A special thanks to the vicar Lucy Moss for her eulogy and funeral service, all who were there commented on the lovely send off John had. Thanks again to Delanoy Funeral Services for their professionalism at a difficult time.

We all know that death is inevitable but when it happens to one of our loved ones our world falls apart, our hearts break and we are left feeling devastated and lost. Julie and John at Delanoy funeral services were there for us at this most terrifying time to help us with our loss and sort out the funeral of our dad with love, care and empathy. Julie and John treated our dad like one of their own family and we could not have put our trust in any one better. They looked after my dad and saw that he was treated in death, with the respect that he deserved. They nurtured my bereaved mum and our family with kindness, patience and the utmost professionalism. They took time to explain procedures and gave us options in how we wanted to celebrate the life of our dad and honour his memory. Everything was taken care of and we knew what to expect at all times. Julie and John went over and above to ensure that dad’s service was a testimonial to the life he lived and even organised a bespoke floral tribute to reflect his love of gardening. Although our hearts were breaking, Julie and John were there to kindly support us through this difficult time and ensure that our final goodbye to him was perfect. Thank you from the bottom of my broken heart Julie and John, our family will never forget the love and support you showed us when we didn’t know where to turn.

I would highly recommend Delanoy funeral services, Julie, John and the team went above and beyond for my mams funeral the detail and the extent they go to is amazing. Nothing was a problem and always happy to answer calls and texts when we needed them.
Our tribute video and street footage are amazing keepsakes and detail again was just something else not forgetting Julie and John travelling to my mams favourite place in the Lakes to make our video that extra special.
All the children where made to feel at ease throughout.
Thank you so much for everything, you done us as a family very proud and my beautiful Mam! Anna & Family xxxx

I had no hesitation in contacting Delanoy funeral services after the previous experience we had with the passing of my mother.

I lost my soul partner Ian Calvert , the support and care through the most difficult of times helped me through. I could not recommend this service high enough to anyone.

The service from John and Julie is so personalised and second to none.

We as a family cannot speak highly enough of the personal, professional and respectful way John and Julie handled our Dad’s funeral.
From the day our Dad passed right up to the day we laid him to rest they went above and beyond in making the day perfect even with a few last minute touches and surprises for the family. They were extremely considerate and showed empathy throughout in what was a very difficult time for all of us and for that we will always remain extremely grateful. We cannot recommend them enough.

Thank you John, Julie and all your staff.
