A very professional and sympathetic service during what was a very sad time. All involved were genuinely caring and empathetic, which was a great comfort and made the whole business easier to handle. All aspects of the ‘issue’ ran seamlessly. A big thank you to Paul, whose professionalism and attention to detail was superlative.

A heartfelt thanks to all involved.

Best,

Steve and Mark Mul.

My father passed away after a long illness. I still wasn’t prepared and this was the first time I had ever had to arrange a funeral. I had no idea where to start. Frank Stevenson’s were amazing. They seemed to know the answers to my questions before I even asked. Dad would have loved the day. I now have a day to look back on with a smile. Who would have thought that was possible? Thank you

It was a really hard time when my father died. Frank Stephensons came to collect my dad when he died suddenly at a friend's house and was helpful, kind and professional. When I went to make the arrangements Kevin was assigned to help me through the full process, he treat me as an individual and adapted to who I was and was not stuffy or pushy, he was brilliant. The reception lady Sara was always friendly and caring too. It made my terrible time better and best as it could be considering the circumstances.

Thank you for entrusting us with the care of another loved one. It is comforting to know that the team were there to support you through this time and relieve some of the pressure through guidance and support. I am happy that we provided a professional service to you.

Stephenson's have handled the funerals of both my mum & mother in law in the last few months so we've had alot of interaction in this challenging period as a family. On both occasions we've been very impressed by their level of service and care. It really feels like a family business that you're dealing with. Both funerals were very bespoke to our families wishes which I didn't realise you could have so much say in before. Paul has really looked after us, we've been guided every step of the way. The business clearly has really good and well established connections with everyone involved in the passing of a loved one, including florists, the hospital and the crematorium, and we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for this level of care and consideration at such a difficult time.

We used Stephensons of Beverley for my father-in-law’s funeral in spring last year. We were so satisfied with the service provided then, despite extremely difficult Covid-related circumstances, that I had no hesitation in choosing them again for my father’s funeral in April this year. Paul was very professional, and handled everything in a very compassionate and reassuring manner. Especially as the deceased was referred to in a very personal way, ie “we will take good care of dad whilst he is with us” - and with reference to the ashes... “dad is safely back with us now” Every special request we made was accommodated without fuss or quibble. The attendees were carefully advised and guided, throughout the funeral, and Covid rules were expertly adhered to.
The celebrant , Alistair, was very well chosen (we couldn’t of asked for a better person) - he totally understood the way in which we wanted our thoughts and memories to be conveyed to the mourners.
Paul provided us with a clear breakdown of the amounts payable, and we thought the total charge for the service was very reasonable. I would not hesitate to recommend Frank Stephenson.
Response from Frank Stephenson & Son Funeral Directors
Thank you for your thoughtful and detailed review. It is incredibly helpful to other families in the same circumstances as yourself and it means a lot to the team for our clients to be able to share their experiences with us. We have been working hard to maintain our high standards of care in these challenging times and it's great to know that we succeeded in doing so.
