“After Nursing my Mother to the end of her life, things became even darker and more depressing when I had the displeasure of dealing with the local funeral directors, who were circling like carrion to gain from death. The cost and cold nature I was treated with were appalling, I have been an Emergency specialist for many years and I am used to dealing with death. These people wanted ridiculous money for simple things, such as driving my Mother 10 miles from the mortuary to the crematorium £1200 A colleague of mine had come across Celebration of Life, advised me to contact them and they were a true light in this dark and vulnerable time Truly exemplary service, real empathy ( not salesperson simpering ) and as eco-friendly as can be at present ( this was important to my Mam and my family ) No hidden and profiteering charges, No emotional blackmail to do certain pointlessly expensive things, just good honest and understanding service Everybody I dealt with from Celebration of Life was lovely and a special thank you to David and Sophie (Sophie I hope you enjoyed the beach ) I will be advising Celebration of Life both personally and professionally from now on. Thank you again for your respect and understanding in service R.L.Evans ( RN, BSc Hons ED. ENP, ECP )”

“Excellent service. At a very difficult time, they took the stress away. They kept us informed at every stage. After receiving my mothers ashes back we then celebrated her life the way she wanted. First class from beginning to the end. I would recommend their service.”

“Celebration of life were professional, compassionate and very pleasant. At such a difficult time the team were respectful of our concerns and answered all our questions. They collected my mom at the time arranged, which was approx 100 miles from Cannock. The team were very caring and explained exactly what would happen. I was informed of the cremation time and day, and the ashes delivered back to me, in a lovely box within a week. I would definitely use this service again. Thank you for help.”

“I chose Celebration of Life's simple cremation service for my nephew, which could not have been more straightforward. Once details and payment were made, I had nothing further to worry about, everything went ahead as planned, with sensitivity and without hitch. I was kept informed of progress at each stage and received his ashes a short while thereafter. The planting of a tree in remembrance is also a thoughtful gesture and greatly appreciated. I can readily recommend David and his team. Peter S.”

“Graham was a humble Black Countryman and although he'd suffered from several chronic illnesses over the past two years, his sudden demise still came as a great shock, not to mention a heart-breaking turmoil. Thankfully, with a little help from Google, I found the CoL website and, strange as it may seem, life became much less of an unwanted burden at such an emotional time. From that initial phone call when everything was explained in such clear detail I was convinced I'd be honouring his wishes and would not go wrong with CoL I was extremely impressed with the ongoing communication throughout the procedure. This enabled me to conduct the legal requirement at my own pace and to inform everyone accordingly. We were then able to arrange both individual and personal commemorative celebrations relevant to everyone who knew him. I also felt that the tree planted in Graham's memory was a wonderful tribute. So thank you CoL for such a professional, respectful and dignified service. Yes, Graham certainly had a good send-off, nationwide, in more ways than one. Consequently, I have had no hesitation whatsoever in passing on CoL's details to family, friends and neighbours, some of which I know will be in touch in due course.”

“From the first phone call I felt compassion and understanding from person dealing with me. Everything was explained to me without me having to ask. My mum was treated with respect and dignity during her collection and I was kept informed at every stage ongoing. Her ashes were hand delivered in a beautiful box which is a lovely touch and then to find a tree had been planted in her honour made it even more special. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Celebration of life team”

“What a lovely company to deal with, friendly and sympathetic without being fake or mawkish at a very sad and difficult time. Everything was organized as we requested and even a follow-up call. We saved so much on the basic funeral that we were able to have a magnificent wake with an open bar for 8 people and still be quids in! Much better than local undertakers I have used in the past. Thanks David and team, you only get one chance at this, and so it's important to get it right -and you certainly did.”

“At a time when things are suddenly really bad, everyone at Celebration of Life was so helpful and understanding. Everything I needed to know and do was explained, and follow-up phone calls kept me informed, collection of my husband's body, the actual cremation date and then when his ashes were to be delivered a phone call the day before to ensure I would be available at that day and time. Then when the ashes arrived I was so happy with the beautiful box they arrived in, immediately they went on the mantel shelf guarded by my Dragons.”
