A thoroughly professional service from our first phone call to the funeral itself. Andy dealt with the admin in a very efficient manner and his suggestions for flowers, music were very welcome. I would definitely recommend Dodgson's.

Had never heard of Wm Dodgson until I had to contact them when Mum passed away suddenly. From initial call through to cremation, all members of staff were amazing. I have to single Andy out at Moortown who was caring, compassionate and always available for help, advice and just someone to chat with during a difficult time. You are a special person.
Wm Dodgson don't just provide a service, they go above and beyond and on behalf of the entire family you have our sincere thanks and gratitude.

Funeral of our mum Mrs Jean Riley. Very efficient, obviously a well-oiled machine. Staff at Moortown were courteous and respectful, everything went to plan including the timings, late changes were no problem at all, everything we asked for was provided. Would recommend this firm to anyone.

I can't recommend Wm. Dodgson & Son Funeral Services enough. They were very respectful and helpful, offering lots of guidance and keeping everything as personal as possible. Geoff, David and the team made everything so easy - the funeral day couldn't have gone any better as it was so well organised and they listened to everything that we wanted. A really lovely, moving and special tribute - which is exactly what we wanted.

A big thankyou to both Geoff and David for guiding us through a difficult time, and arranging Olives funeral. The Rev Chris Balding led us through the service beautifully and sympathetically. An extra special thankyou to Geoff for the extra details he added to the Order of Service booklets, comments back from people who received these, but couldn't attend the funeral because of lockdown, have been lovely.

I highly recommend Wm. Dodgson & Son as they have provided a very kind, sympathetic and professional service from their first contact with me. They have been thoughtful and accommodating at every stage and extremely efficient. The support and guidance of Andy and Geoff has guided and reassured me and nothing was too much trouble for them. During such a difficult time in my life, this has made a big difference and I can’t thank them enough.

Wm Dodgson and son were recommended to me for my mum's funeral recently. From the first phone call I felt at ease and a sense of relief that I didn't have to worry and everything would be fine. All the staff at moortown branch were so friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. They were caring and wanted to know about my mum. They listened to my endless stories and questions and I couldn't of asked for more. They details and service was exactly as mum wanted.
Thank you all so much.
I would definitely recommend them
