I am incredibly grateful for the support and guidance I received whilst organising my mother’s funeral. Paul provided an excellent level of care and compassion at a very difficult time. Every aspect of the service was handled exactly as I wished. I would highly recommend Sullivan and Sons to anyone looking for a caring, respectful, and professional funeral service. Thank you for everything.

Paul at Sullivan and sons was incredible , very thoughtful and professional throughout. He put us at ease and made an awful situation bearable . We dealt with Paul throughout the whole process from meeting to discus our wishes right up to the funeral itself and no request was too much . We are all so very grateful we chose you to help us send Gran off the way she would have wanted . Would 100 percent recommend to anyone . Thank you so much !

I used Sullivan & Son for both my mum when she passed in 2009 and my nan when she passed in in 2024. All I can say is in that time period Sulivan & Son had not changed at all. Still the ethos of family first. Paul was always at hand to guide every step of the way. It honestly was so lovely that 15 years on Paul was still as passionate about his job. Thank you for you help and assistance and best of all totally independent.

My wife died recently and, upon recommendation, I asked Paul Sullivan to look after her funeral. From the start, he was extremely supportive, giving me the benefit of his obvious experience in a very friendly way. He explained what needed to be done and, where there were alternatives, he gave me the pros and cons and let me decide. He was willing to act as the link with all the relevant third parties and the quality of his "extras" such as the floral tribute and service sheet printing was excellent. It all resulted in a thoroughly fitting tribute to my wife. A first-class service. I have no hesitation in recommending him.

I would like to thank you and your staff for the help provided that made a sad day pass with great dignity.

Every request was met with the same calm, reassuring manner. Paul remembered every small detail and was kind beyond the needs of his profession.
