"I would personally like to thank H Bates Funeral Directors for their exceptional professional and caring service. Every single aspect of my late wife’s funeral and interment of ashes was carried out in accordance with the family’s wishes, but it is the attention to detail , helpful suggestions and personal care by Sylvia the proprietor and funeral director which was so welcome at our time of need."
"Bates were my third choice - I would have made a huge mistake had I gone with either of the others. Sylvia and her excellent team could not have been more helpful and my mother's funeral was perfect - the wicker coffin was a delight and the entire process was undertaken (if you'll excuse the pun!) tastefully, compassionately and very smoothly. Sylvia, in particular went out of her way to assist me in many more ways than 'just a funeral'...I cannot recommend them more highly. Most of us only ever arrange two funerals in a lifetime - you don't want to get it wrong!!!"
"Just took a prepaid funeral plan out with Sylvia for when the sad time comes for my beautiful mum, they will be no worries as all the arrangements are done. I chose Sylvia because the funerals she had done for both my sons were perfect."
