Why choose us?
At John Duckworth Funeral Directors, we will listen to your wishes and using our vast experience and wealth of knowledge accumulated over 100 years, we will guide you through this difficult time. We all have our own unique life story, and so every funeral, celebration of life and ceremony that is entrusted to us is taken care of with the greatest respect and dignity.
Whether traditional or contemporary, religious or non-religious, simple or elaborate, we will work with you to create a true sense of occasion and set an appropriate tone for the day, be that uplifting, sombre or both. Our meticulous standards and attention to detail mean that we are prepared for every practicality, leaving you free to celebrate and grieve for the life you have lost, because after all we only get one chance.
How do you wish to say goodbye?
There are so many ways to make saying goodbye personal, from photography, live music, even our staff wearing a favourite colour personal to your loved one. Below are some of the aspects of the day you may wish to consider. If you choose to appoint us to take care of the arrangements, we will arrange a mutually convenient time to meet and discuss the arrangements in finer detail. Ordinarily we will meet you in the comfort and familiar surroundings of your own home, however if preferred you are always welcome to arrange this meeting at our funeral homes, via telephone, email or video call.
