At the most difficult time in our lives losing dad there is no one I would trust more than Andrew and his team. They were there every step of the way helping us with every detail of arranging as well as being there as an incredible emotional support. Everything was done with incredible respect, dignity and class. Dad couldn’t of had a better send off, it was perfect and we thank you for absolutely everything x

We could not have wished nor hoped for a better service than we received from Andrew Smith Funeral Directors in looking after my late mother’s arrangements. From getting initial guidance and advice and right through to the funeral service day, we could not have faulted the efficiency, courtesy, gentle control and total professionalism of all members of staff. We knew we would be in good hands as they came highly recommended. However, our expectations were exceeded even more. Thank you Richard and everyone.

As a Minister of Religion undertaking funerals, it is always comforting to know that the family and their loved one's in the safe hands of an experienced and caring Funeral Undertaker. Andrew Smith and his team pay close attention to every detail to help ensure that the arrangements all run smoothly. I have no hesitation in commending their services to all those who might find themselves having to arrange a funeral.

Words cannot express how much we appreciate the excellent service myself and my family received from Andrew and his team following the unexpected death of my husband. They were thoughtful, caring and so compassionate. Nothing was too much for them. They listened without judging and offered advice without pressure. I was dreading arranging the funeral but Andrew and his team ensured that the whole process was as stress-free as it could during one of the most difficult times I've ever experienced. Should anyone ask me I would recommend Andrew Smith Funeral Directors every time.

Andrew and his team were fantastic and we could not have given my father ( and mother ) a better send off in these troubled times. Andrew and his team were really helpful and their professional advice was invaluable in planning the day. They were very flexible to our needs as a family and understanding of the stresses we were all going through. I cant recommend them highly enough !
On the day they maintained a professional unobtrusive presence that was very reassuring and supportive.
A big Thank you to Andrew and his Team !!

When our mum passed away we went directly to Andrew Smith who from the very start was a true professional. Andrew and all his staff could not have been better. They guided us through the whole details of the funeral explaining everything in detail and Andrew recommended a brilliant vicar (Rev. Phil Williams) who could not have been better. The staff were there at any time so we could call them if we had any questions - nothing was too much trouble, they were all very caring, thoughtful and above all very considerate of our feelings as a family and especially respectful to our late mum.

Andrew Smith was highly recommended to us as he had served faith funerals in our Jain community. Once we met, we felt comfortable he understood and respected all of our beliefs and traditions. My father passed away at an early age, Andrew and his team took a lot of pressure off us as a family on the day of the funeral and prior and took care of us with the utmost empathy throughout. Everything was dealt with in a timely manner, which was important in our faith. Thank you for supporting us through what was an extremely emotional time for our family.
