Services
Mr Albert Henry Cheater, a former Chief Fire Officer in the town, first established the business and he was succeeded by Sam Fields. Peter Peace moved to Romsey in 1966 and carried out his duty as funeral director in the town with much dignity, care and professionalism for over 30 years. Simon and his son Michael Peace now look after the day to day running of the business.
Simon has been involved in the profession for nearly 45 years and has a wealth of knowledge and experience. He has guided many families through their bereavement with his quiet and reassuring manner. Although still active within the business, Simon now spends some time tending to his animals on his farm.
Our task is to help create a ceremony which gives full value and importance to the wishes and beliefs of the family. It is important that instructions left by the deceased with regard to personal effects i.e. Wedding rings are observed. Every funeral is 'unique' in that it reflects the wishes of the family and takes place in different circumstances.
The Peace family and their team have a vast knowledge and experience. They will use this to empower you to make informed choices. You will be given the time and guidance to make decisions that create a personal funeral, representing both yours and your loved one's wishes. Every funeral service is unique.
We have a garden chapel, at our premises in Romsey and can hold religious or non-religious services for a maximum of 20 people. An organist can be arranged to facilitate the singing of hymns or music but this will restrict numbers. Alternatively, recorded music (cd/mp3's) can be played during the service.

From start to finish Michael Peace and his colleagues handled Mum's funeral with dignity and sympathy. We were very grateful for the advice and help we were given in choosing the celebrant and for the expert way in which the music was sorted.
Nothing was too much trouble.
What was a very sad day passed without hitch. Highly recommended.

Recently my Mother in Law passed away and my wife found this to be a very difficult time. As to which funeral directors we should use I kept being told about A H Cheater LTD, a family run Funeral Directors established in Romsey and North Baddesley. We contacted them in the early hours shortly after my mother in law had died and within an hour they had arrived at the house and began the procedure of dealing with the funeral arrangements. A couple of days later we were in their office speaking to a lovely young man, Mr Richard Gardiner , who was sympathetic, professional and courteous.

Michael Peace at A H Cheater showed the family such care and support.
In what can be a very stressful time Michael guided us through the process in a calm and professional manner.
We had a call the morning of the service to check everyone was ok, I could not fault the service provided. I would recommend A.H. Cheater 100%

At a time when you are at your lowest ebb and have no knowledge of what to do when you experience the loss of a loved one, I turned to A H Cheater Funeral Directors in Romsey. I have lived in the town my whole life and never had occasion to have to visit their premises but when I did, I was pleasantly surprised! They did absolutely everything for me, and I mean everything from helping with song choice to flowers and obituaries. They were so understanding at a time when grief kind of takes over but nothing was too much trouble and I only had to ask and it was sorted for me. From the first visit

Arranging a funeral is a traumatic and sad event, but Lizzie helped all our family through the entire process, showing understanding, tact and patience. she was always available to help or listen, and very professional despite her young age. I had heard that she was good, but she was nicer than I had thought she would be, as were all the people involved in the funeral we had to arrange. Highly Recommended for such an intimate and personal sad event, A H Cheater made it all a lot easier. Thank you, from all our family
