What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Arranging a funeral plan in advance and implementing it years later, along with services arranged for a mother or father, forms the background to most accounts of C & A Reed Funeral Directors in Sheffield. The arrangements are described as efficient and handled with sensitivity, with explanations of each stage given in advance and updates passed on as matters progressed, including word of when the person who had died was in the firm's care. Attention to the deceased is a point that comes up often, from collection at the hospital to the return of ashes.

Sharon, Ian and John are named for their kindness and professionalism, while celebrants including Fiona and James are praised for words that brought comfort and reflected a life faithfully. Carrying out a pre-arranged plan after a death is described as empathetic and smooth, with the coffin viewed and details discussed beforehand. Smaller gestures are remembered as well, such as flowers laid in a garden afterwards, and the readiness to listen so that services became fitting tributes. Memorial days arranged through the same firm are said to have gone just as families wished, with courteous treatment shown throughout.

My late aunt had chosen C&A Reed through her funeral plan back in 2011. When she passed away last month and we had to implement the plan, we found C&A Reed were very efficient yet empathetic and sensitive. We were kept up to date by the team at every stage and on the day the funeral went smoothly and was conducted with great care and dignity. The choice of celebrant James was excellent and he summarised our ramblings into quite a joyous celebration of her life. I would certainly recommend C&A Reed.

I was a bit nervous about this funeral plan, but I have to say that it was amazing. They dealt with everything in a sympathetic efficient manner. They picked up the body from the hospital, showed me the coffin, explained what was going to happen and bought the ashes to me. At a very distressing time, they did everything to make it the best experience possible. Thank you very much.

Right from our first meeting with Sharon, we felt at ease, and knew our mothers funeral would go without any problems. The team at C and A Reeds, were all caring and professional, we would recommend C and A Reeds to help you through this of most difficult times.
