East of England Co-op Funeral Services

Thank you all at the Co-op mum’s funeral was lovely, staff were so lovely and supportive throughout the whole process cant thank them enough.

We arrived at Wimpole Road not quite knowing what to expect, but no need to worry we were looked after so very well with all our wishes being met.This relationship continued for the whole time up to and including the day of the funeral where my dear mum was looked after with such respect and dignity. Special thanks to the lovely lady from the co op who stayed during the whole funeral service, and even stayed with us outside in the freezing cold, until we were ready to leave.

From the moment we met Luke to arrange the plans for our Mum's funeral, everything just fell into place. We had a brilliant celebrant in Kate, wonderful flowers, a beautiful order of service which was prepared many times to reflect our wishes and on the day professional handling by Luke and his team of pall bearers, who were so smartly attired. I cannot fault our experience by East of England Co-op Funeral Services and our family wish to thank you all for making Mum's final journey run so smoothly. Thank you.

A very sincere thank you to all the staff at the East of England Co-op Funeral service. They made the arranging of my father's funeral very straightforward. Theresa in particular was very helpful, always responding quickly and efficiently to any request for information or help. On the day all went very smoothly and Ben the funeral director made things very easy for us. I would have no hestitation in recommending this company.

We are currently being cared for by Debbie Read who is our Funeral Arranger. Although the service has not been carried out until next week, I just had to put some words down as just a thank you does not seem so much given to how much compassion and support Debbie has gave my Mum and myself.Debbie is very professional and so so so genuine. You can tell this is beyond more than a job for her.We were never rushed even at times we may have been lost for words and needed a cry.The service will take place in the new chapel and it is simply beautiful.I would more than recommend Co op Funeral Services, 89 Wimpole Road, Colchester, CO1 2DB.

From start to finish the coop did an amazing job for us and our Step Mum 'Gillie'. Thanks to Theresa, Holly, Mark and all the staff at the Coop Funeral Services in Wimpole Road.Lou, Bruce and Rose Moodie.

The whole team were so kind and caring during this difficult and sad time, but Jorja Waters really went above and beyond. Her support, efficiency and attention to detail were so appreciated, she will go far in life.

I would like to express my sincere thanks to everyone at East of England Co-op Funeral Services for their help, support, sympathy and professionalism when handling my sister’s funeral. Amber’s planning was meticulous and her suggestion of Kate Millner as celebrant was an inspired choice: Kate delivered a perfect eulogy. Unfortunately, I do not have the names of everyone I dealt with at both Stanway and Wimpole Road and I am indebted to them all but I would like to make mention of Kath for uploading all the photographs which were used at the funeral and Ben for his kindness and attention on the day.
