"We’re very grateful for, and appreciative of, all the help provided by Jerry March Funeral Services for the recent funeral & celebration of Ivy’s life. Adam and Lisa offer a service of the highest professional standards while maintaining a very personal touch. During what is a very emotive and potentially stressful time, they offered a very sincere, careful, considered and flawless service. Always available and supportive, they made “letting go “ of Mum the best experience it could be. We particularly appreciated the private Chapel of Rest under the trees next to their family home.

We can now recommend them most sincerely to others for their care, their attention to detail and their effective and thoughtful services. Thank you, The Quantrell Family"

Jerry’s son, Adam, has been caring and considerate in organising everything to my dad’s wishes, with patience and the utmost respect. On the day of the funeral, he organised for Alec at Funeral Motorcycles to take my dad to his final resting place – another business I can’t praise highly enough – and with his team, made the day a seamless and beautiful one. Rachel also has been so efficient in making the administration clear and timely. Our family are full of gratitude to Jerry March Funeral Services. I know my dad would have been very proud with their professionalism, dignity and grace."

"We used Jerry March Funeral Services five years ago for our Mums funeral and were extremely pleased with the service given, attention to detail and the value given. We absolutely gave Mum the send off Dad wanted, and nothing was too much trouble. Unfortunately we found ourselves requiring Jerry March's (Adam's) services again when Dad passed away earlier this year. There was no discussion required about which funeral director to use, and a quick call to Adam to arrange a meeting. As always a very professional service - Adam had all the details from Mum's service to hand which made it easy to make the arrangements. It's great to be able to actually speak to the same person throughout arrangements, and that person to be involved, hands on in the services provided too. Also post service, Adam's attention to detail or availability didn't waive, and he was always there for questions either in person, or over the phone. Nothing was too much trouble. No hard sell, just a good informative discussion about which options are available and left totally to us, the family, which service we wished to use. I would thoroughly recommend Jerry March Funeral Services, which is a genuine family business with good customer service running through its core. "

"Dear Adam, On behalf of all the family can I say Thank you, for everything that you have done for us over the past weeks. (Rachel as well). Working with us to give Dad the dignified send off which he truly deserved, the funeral yesterday was made extra special with the video recording, when the celebrant invited us to turn and wave at our family in New Zealand who were watching and knowing they were waving back, Dad would have liked that. "
"Thank you Rachel and Adam for all that you have done. You helped the arrangements, and the funeral itself, run so smoothly so I didn’t need to worry about that side of things.
