O'Dwyer Funeral Directors

Very professional, polite, friendly and patient. O'Dwyers were extremely helpful and paid attention to even the minutest of detail. Gave mum and the family the perfect funeral we wanted for dad. Would highly recommend them. Thanks again to Don and your lovely team. Beverley and Gregona

From our first conversion with Don ODyer I was convinced that his firm would complete my brothers funeral with the dignity and compassion he deserved. He did not disappoint in anyway. My sibling passed away in distressing circumstances in London and we reside in the North but all our concerns were dispelled with the necessary details being taken care of in a professional and sympathetic manner. A special mention must go to Claudette who went far beyond the call of duty in making all the arrangement proceed without a hitch. We would recommend ODyer Independent Funeral Directors without any hesitation whatsoever.

My mother died in March 2023 and we needed a funeral director at short notice. We found O'Dwyer on the internet and all I can say is that I cannot imagine a better service. Our contact, Anthea Barrett, was just perfect. The right balance of sympathy without being in any way obsequious and fully on top of all the practical details. Funerals are stressful things to organise, with lots of decisions to make at short notice when you are feeling very emotional. Anthea guided us through all the arrangements, was transparent about the costs and liaised with multiple people seamlessly. The other staff we met were lovely as well. It's a personal think but I really didn't want someone morose and gloomy. I wanted someone with a smile and and a friendly attitude. Someone who I could trust to sort all the details out. The day itself went very smoothly and was memorable for all the right reasons. Thank you Anthea.

ODwyers are absolute gems. When our little ma died sooner than expected in a nursing home so we hadnt nominated a funeral director she was taken away over the weekend and we found it impossible to find her. All very distressing. I called ODwyers and was totally reassured she would be found and very quickly I had a call from Anthea to say they had her safely with them. The care compassion and professionalism they showed us was exceptional. The celebrant they recommended was also exceptional and the entire service was beautifully directed and really filled with love. It takes very special people to do this job and the ODwyers are more than special. We used them for my mother-in-law as well in 2018 and again the standard of professionalism and care more than surpassed expectations. Also recommended them to a friend whose mother passed during Covid and he tells me the process was completely faultless. Cannot recommend this independent local company enough. Our thanks to the entire team for everything.

I would like to express sincere thanks to O'Dwyer Funeral Directors for the amazing and professional job they did. In the time of grief and sadness, I felt the care, thoughtfulness and sympathy displayed by them. They allowed for us to linger and meet family and friends after the service because they realised the impact my mother made and had on so many people. As a result of the time spent after the service, they made sure that the time was extended for the burial to take place. I must say, they really went above and beyond and for this I am really thankful. I would highly recommend O'Dwyers funeral directors to anyone because of my experience with them. Thank you for everything. Kinds Regards Cllr Sandra Bynoe
