  • I couldn't recommend Colin and his team more at Medway Funeral Directors. I lost my Mum when she was only 48 years old and only being 22 myself I felt very lost and had obviously never had this responsibility before, but Colin was so helpful and nothing was ever too much for him and his team. From our first initial meeting, to planning the funeral day and all the little details, taking Mum into their care, sorting out the cars and flowers for us, and now sorting out the ashes, Colin has been amazing. Such a warm and helpful team that makes dealing with such a hard time a lot easier. Every single person who attended the service on the day and all of our close friends and family who we had spoken with about Medway Funeral Directors couldn't help but mention how professional they were, and how great they just were overall, and we couldn't agree more. We put our full trust into Medway Funeral Directors and we can truly say that we did the right thing with picking them to be our funeral directors, and in the unfortunate event of another death in the family we can say wholeheartedly that we wouldn't even think of looking anywhere else - they just hit the nail on the head. Thank you Colin & team for being so kind, compassionate, caring and sensitive.

  • When my Dad passed away recently Medway Funeral Directors helped us ensure that we gave him the perfect send off that he deserved. Colin was so helpful, kind and professional, nothing was too much trouble. He listened to our wishes and guided us through the whole process making it so much easier than we had imagined it would be. I would not hesitate to recommend him and his team to take care of your loved ones. Thank you for everything! ????

  • When my husband of 60 years died, the thought of arranging his cremation was really daunting. I went to see Colin at Strood Medway funeral director’s and I couldn’t have wished for a kinder and more professional person to guide me every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble and he gave us as much of his time as we needed - never ever rushing us. He organised everything and was extremely efficient and kept us in the loop as he did it. He chose Yvonne to be our celebrant and again she did an excellent job meeting with us and really understanding my husband’s life and she delivered this so well in the Eulogy. We knew we could trust Colin to deliver a first class service and he did from beginning to end. I cannot recommend him more highly. Many many thanks from our family - you helped us through a very sad experience. Anne Healy

Dear Emma Sorry, not too good with words, but just wanted to say thank you so very much.  Couldn’t have wished for a better team, yourself, along with B, not forgetting the rest of the team, to give Mum the perfect send off.  Everyone commented on what a lovely service it was, also thanks for being so kind and special, making me feel a lot more at ease on the sad day.  I miss mum so very much, but know i got to say goodbye in a way that meant so much. Thanks again, take care of yourself, with love

Dear Colin & Team
Dear Emma and to all of you at Chatham Medway Funeral Service I just wanted to say a Big Thank You for all of the care you gave to my mum MAP.  Emma from the moment we did the arrangements, to making sure mum was dressed, had her make up and hair done.  For all the support when we came to view mum, we were given so much time and compassion, to every last detail to the end of her service and more, you have been amazing.  I cannot thank you enough for giving my mum, such a dignified send off, with all the little extras.  I will definitely be recommending you to others and will definitely be using you again, hopefully not too soon though. Hoping you all have a lovely Christmas. D, A and all the family

Thank you
To Emma & Team, I just want to say a big big thank you again for everything you have done for me and my children at this very sad time. I honestly had no idea what i was doing, and you made it all so easy, even in the strange and uncertain time with the virus. Emma, i absolutely hate talking on the phone, gives me so much anxiety, but that very quickly went away with how kind and caring you are. You are amazing, and i thank you again and again for all your help and support, and to everyone at Medway Funeral Directors, just a massive thank you for helping us at this heartbreaking time. I’m so so grateful. Lots of love MW……
