A Truly Independent Family Business

Penrose Funerals Ltd is run by myself and my son Nathan. We are committed to the reality that affordability need not come at the cost of professionalism or care. Our dedication to remaining independent means we can continue to offer a flexible, personal service to our clients and to be a gentle, guiding hand through a difficult time. Our small and dedicated team, along with Nathan and myself, will be there for you from start to finish…and beyond.

Jeremy Van der Pant, Managing Director

Caring for our staff

We believe that caring for our clients starts with caring for our staff. We do not believe in zero hour contracts or paying minimum wage. We do set high standards, but we find that because our staff feel involved, listened to and supported it is they who are also constantly pushing to improve the service we offer. We are convinced that this corporate culture of openness and support is what enables us to provide an exceptionally caring and supportive service for bereaved families and friends.

Testimonials

Thank you for all the care you showed to my late husband Barry Low. These are very dark, sad days and your thoughtfulness has helped myself and the family greatly. It’s appreciated a lot.

The funeral service was done with great dignity which I always will remember.

Thank you to all members of the Penrose team

Ellen Low and Family - December 2022

Thank you so much for the wonderful funeral you did for my husband. I couldn’t of asked for anything more. Special mention to Nathan for putting up with us changing this (he has the patience of a saint). Everything was perfect from beginning to end.

Thank you once again,

 

Mrs Lawrence & family - Sept 2024

Dear Jeremy and Nathan,

We would just like to thank you for the exemplary way you conducted Bill’s funeral on September 28th at Basildon Crematorium. Every aspect was just as we hoped it would be. You were always understanding and re-assuring.

Thank you

Jean, Carl and Donna - November 2018

Dear Nathan and team

Just wanted to say a heartfelt thankyou to you and all at Penrose for your dignity, help and support yesterday and beforehand in the arrangement of dad’s funeral. It was a lovely send-off and your professionalism and courtesy on the day was first-rate and warmly appreciated by our family and friends.
Best wishes
Rachel Harkes - April 2021
My family and friends want to thank sincerely all the staff at Penrose for being so compassionate, professional and sensitive with fulfilling our wishes to celebrate the life of Margaret Rose Shales.

Penrose showed respect taking us through the detailed procedure with personal delicacy enabling us to honour a special woman.

I would highly recommend the family run business, and my father wishes are to use Penrose as he can guarantee a perfect ceremony.

Thank you.
Janice Shales - June 2022

To Penrose Funerals

Thank you so much from all our family and friends for your excellent service. The whole funeral was beautifully and respectfully done, it was so dignified and went very smoothly. Especially you went out of your way to go past P***’s place of work where they all clapped as we went by. He would have loved that.

Jarvis Family - 12th December 2024

Thank you all so much for everything you have done for us and for max.

Love

Sam, Em and families - September 2022
