I cannot recommend highly enough. My husbands funeral was carried out sensitively and caring and exactly as he and we wanted it. It was a fitting tribute to him and this was thanks to the professionalism and attention to detail by Robert and the team at Heys. My family and me are forever grateful.

I could not recommend them enough. Robert especially went above and beyond. He made the impossible task of planning my dads funeral at only 29 that bit easier. I know there is so much that goes on behind the scenes however, everything was perfectly smooth. Will forever be grateful for how much care and respect they showed myself but also my dad. I cannot thank them enough.

I do not live locally, but needed to arrange a funeral for my aunt who lives in Bradford. She does not have any children and I made arrangements with my mother remotely due to the restrictions due to lockdown.
We found the man who answered the phone very attentive , explaining everything carefully. We found them extremely patient and all the arrangements made with minimal distress. Thank you

My partner (Mouse) died of Cov19 contracted in hospital. Hey & Son helped myself every step of the bitter, hurting way. They treated her with respect and gratefully did all for myself.
I recommend these gentlemen to anyone for their services and compassion.
Thanking them again and again

Thank you to Robert and his team as they did a stellar job--including managing somewhat usual circumstances of moving our father from Edinburgh to West Yorkshire. No detail was missed, no request was too hard and nothing could have been improved upon or handled any better.
