Testimonials

To everyone at Penrose,

Thank you will never be enough to express our gratitude for all that you have done for our family over the past few weeks.  You showed humility, compassion and kindness at a time we really needed it and for this we will always be grateful.

With all our love and best wishes,

Margaret, Lauren and Jessica Hudson - July 2021

To Jeremy, Nathan, Jon and Brendon,

A simple thank you sometimes isn’t enough to truly express the gratitude that’s felt for those who are there when we need them. From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you for carrying out the funeral for my dear Caroline. The kindness and sympathy you showed were far beyond expectation. You were there for me throughout the whole proceeding. Yours is truly a wonderful company.

Thank you

My dear Helen’s celebrant recommended that we use Penrose Funerals for her ceremony. Jeremy and Nathan were kind, professional and respectful in every way. It was a great recommendation and I would not hesitate to recommend this family firm to all who need sensitive reassurance at a difficult time.

Hi Nathan

Just wanted to thank you for all your support leading up to Jill’s funeral. Your patience was so apparent and you helped me enormously. Also thank you to your father Jeremy who once again was so supportive. The whole team were so respectful and it was inspiring to watch the reverence you all displayed throughout the process of the funeral. I don’t live locally but if I did I would want Penrose to take my funeral.
Thank you all and I wish you all well.

To Nathan and all at Penrose, I just wanted to thank you for the sensitivity, care and respect you showed my Grannie yesterday. She looked amazing and I’m sure you caught a glimpse of her incredible 100 years as my dad spoke at the grave-side. You don’t have an easy job but I hope you know how grateful people are that you do it so well.

Your manner and conduct was gentle, considerate and supportive, thank you for all you did to make yesterday so special. You have been given the gifting and attitude needed to help bring peace and blessing during difficult circumstances. May you know God’s peace and blessing as you continue to serve others in this way, Thank you
