Hi my Auntie i what go and sèe her not good not see her i beeen upset all yesrsday i just go and see her pls her name is Doreen Smiles.
Gina the Funeral Director who helped us was very supportive, knowledgeable with a calm and sympathetic demeanor.
At one of the most difficult times of our lives, Gina was simply incredible. From the moment we met her, she showed such kindness, compassion, and professionalism. Even in the midst of our sadness, she had a way of putting a smile on our faces and making us feel supported every step of the way. She cared for my mum with the utmost dignity and respect, and nothing was ever too much trouble. Gina went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and thanks to her hard work and attention to detail, Mum’s funeral was a beautiful and fitting tribute. We will always be grateful for the care and support she gave our family. I cannot recommend Gina and the team highly enough. Thank you for everything.
I know Michael of old, absolute professional in applying dignity in such times. Nothing is to much trouble. Many thanks
Can I express my utmost gratitude to Gemma and Gina who took dignified care of my brother Alan who was in the Funeral Home recently. Your compassion and kindness were second to none and made myself and my Partner at ease when we came to view Alan. Gemma..thank you so much for conducting Alan's beautiful funeral yesterday. It was 'special'..even though there was a hiccup with the celebrant. You were so quick to organise a replacement to do Alan's service by asking Father to officiate the service at such short notice..bearing in mind he had a funeral to conduct after Alan's.. Big thank you to Father.. Once again Im so grateful you took great care of Alan..
So comforting knowing they look after loved ones properly, had nothing but support and compassion from one of the workers Gina , she couldn’t have helped us more with our beautiful baby girl . Her final journey was as perfect as she was and it’s we couldn’t have done it with out Gina. All the other staff were lovely too and I would definitely recommend to anyone thinking to use them.
I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Gina at Michael Kennedy’s Funeral Directors. From the very first conversation, she was incredibly kind, compassionate, and patient. Her understanding nature made a truly difficult time feel more manageable. Gina guided us through the process with great care and sensitivity, never rushing us and always making sure we felt supported and listened to. Her calm and thoughtful approach brought comfort when we needed it most, and we are so grateful for the respect and empathy she showed throughout. Thank you, Gina, for making such a hard time a little easier.
