what our families say

During a very difficult time Turnbull’s provided a service with utmost professionalism. The team lead by Benjamin were sensitive, caring and assertive to all the family needs during all aspects of the funeral arrangements. We are forever grateful for the service provided and cannot thank them enough. If you are looking for a funeral company that genuinely cares and excels in their service, I wholeheartedly recommend E Turnbull & Son.

I cannot fault the service I received from Ben and the team. Everything was seamless and it made a very stressful time easier. My Dad was given a beautiful send off with great care and consideration. The guidance we were given throughout was first class. I would highly recommend this company for your loved ones. Thank you for your compassion.

Turnbull's have been an enormous help to our family. They offered guidance, advice and support, the funeral was just as Grandma would have wanted. Our thanks to Martyn and all the staff for their compassionate care at such a difficult time.

I would highly recommend Turnbull's. They made the process of organising my Mothers funeral as stress free as possible. We can't thank them enough.

The staff at Turnbull's were incredible from the moment I walked in to the funeral home. Martyn took the time to explain the process to me, and was compassionate and understanding throughout.

I would not hesitate recommending Turnbull's. Every detail was taken care of and they offered advice and suggestions every step of the way. The organisation on the day was exceptional, thank you so much to you all.

Every member of Turnbull’s staff were incredibly supportive and professional from start to finish for my fathers funeral. There was certainly the personal touch! We would highly recommend their services.

The ability to watch my Aunties funeral live online was such a relief since I was unable to attend. Turnbull's really did a terrific job and couldn’t be faulted. Thanks to all...

I would not hesitate to recommend Turnbulls. Having sadly lost my mother in law in late 2022 and then my own mum in December 2023 both times turnbulls acted with utmost professionalism, compassion and a personal touch that made the process so much easier to cope with. You really feel as though you matter to them. Many thanks for making a difficult time, both times, that much easier.
