Services
As your funeral director we perform a unique and indispensable role in society. It is a role part professional and we believe part vocational. We are always available in your time of need providing emotional, expert and practical support. The experience of our sympathetic ear is all the more valuable because we are dealing with the practicalities of the funeral.
Our services include the removal of the deceased from the place of death to our Funeral Home with the necessary authority. The arrangement and payment of fees and disbursements relating to the funeral including: Crematorium and Cemetery fees, Parochial fees, Press Announcements, Attendance Cards, Catering Arrangements and Floral Arrangements.
We have our own Private Ambulance that we use to collect your loved one from the place of death and convey to our Private Chapel of Rest. This is fully equipped and sign written and has blacked out side and rear windows for complete privacy. For the day of your funeral we have our Ford Cardinal Hearse and two matching Ford Dorchester Limousines.
At the time of arranging the funeral with us we will ask you what you would like to do with the ashes following the cremation. There are various options all of which we will offer you. Should you require a scatter tube, picture frame or casket for interment we offer a wide range. Please telephone us for further advice or call into our offices where we have just some of the more popular items on display.
All of our coffins and caskets are fully fitted throughout with side sheets and pillow, three handles on each side and breast plate with the deceased's name, date of death and age. Depending on the funeral option that you choose depends on the type and style of the coffin or casket. We also supply environmentally friendly coffins and caskets and have a wide range to choose from.

Our family have needed to use the services of Alex and his team 3 times in the last 8months. I cannot praise them enough for the help they have given us. Alex has a down to earth way of putting you at ease and making sure your every need is covered while Hilary has a way of putting together all your memories to make the tribute really special. Highlyrecommend

Alex and his team at William Whitmey made a very difficult time for our family easy. From our first meeting, his honest, down to earth approach and advice helped us throughout and nothing was too much for them. The life celebrant they used, Hilary, was fantastic and made the service a lasting memory that we can look back on without too much sadness. I cannot recommend their services enough in such difficult times. Thank you

Alex and his team are absolutely amazing. I was so nervous about making arrangements for my dear Dad but as soon as I met Alex he straight away put my Mum and I at ease. Planning a funeral throughout Covid had seemed particularly daunting, but Alex took all the stress away and really helped to give my Dad the send off that he deserved. I can highly recommend them. You will be so well cared for! They truly went above and beyond to give us outstanding service, nothing was ever too much trouble. Thank you so much Alex and the team for everything, I will be forever grateful!
