From the initial contact with Caleb, everything that felt like it would be upsetting and overwhelming was dealt with with kindness, empathy and upmost respect. I felt that whatever questions I had, I would get a sensitive and clear answer plus it seemed that I could ring at any time and nothing would be too much trouble.
I can't thank you enough for helping to steer us all through to a service that was all Mum.
I would not hesitate to recommend David Hendy and Sons to anyone.

The service provided by David Hendy & Sons during our recent bereavement was outstanding. Caleb Hendy, and all at the company couldn't have looked after us any better and everything was taken care of with professionalism, dignity and kindness and with a genuine concern for the family. We thank them most sincerely for guiding us through a difficult time and will not hesitate to recommend them.

Such a professional and compassionate service from a Family run local business. From ringing Caleb on the morning my dear Dad died right through to after the funeral he has been easy to communicate with and made me feel that Dad was well cared for. He really listened to our family requests and made the whole emotional experience easier to cope with.
Highly recommend.

We chose David Hendy funeral services for my mums funeral last year, they were amazing so caring and professional so much so that when my dad died I had no hesitation in using them again. Losing both parents within a year is heartbreaking but they were so kind and made a very stressful time so much easier. Very respectful, kind, helpful and professional I would definitely recommend this firm when planning a funeral.

I just wanted to acknowledge the superb service which Sam organised and executed for my wife Jackie.
From the onset, I knew by Sam’s demeanour that she would be given the greatest possible care. Both Sam and the teams service demonstrated that beyond doubt.
Your recommendation of Becky was exactly what was required. Her work with us putting Jackie’s life story together hit the mark exactly.
Since the service, many family members and friends overseas have commented on the excellent service which was a great testament to Sam and his team. Again, thank you so much.
We are eternally grateful

Following our dear Mum’s unexpected death we found ourselves in a situation where we did not know where to start. Once we had decided that Treswithian Downs Crematorium was the perfect place to have the service we then needed to find a funeral director, so many to choose from. David Hendy Funeral Services were the closest to this crematorium so we decided to call them first. After speaking to Caleb for just a short time we knew this was the right company. Caleb was kind, caring, professional and fully understood our anguish. Every step was explained, nothing was too much trouble, we were able

Thank you to all at David Hendy Funeral Services in Camborne. We appreciate the personal attention that you provided, helping us to create a fitting tribute to our wonderful Mum.
We would particularly like to commend Caleb who, from our first meeting, was calm, compassionate and sincere, and helped us to negotiate a myriad of difficult choices, at a particularly emotional time for us. Nothing was too much trouble. Everything ran like clockwork and Caleb went the extra mile to ensure that we were kept informed throughout the whole process, coordinating with family members in both Camborne and Australia

Following the terribly sad death of my young adult daughter David Hendy Funeral Services were just superb. Sam made a very difficult situation easier by taking everything he could help with out of my hands. They were all so respectful, helpful, caring and thoughtful. They facilitated my many visits and numerous requests, nothing was too much trouble even up to the last minute. I truly feel my daughter was looked after with the respect and dignity she deserved.
