We recently used Arnold Funeral Service of Marlow when my mother died. They were exceptional in every way. Right from the outset, Tommy guided us through the whole process with sensitivity, calmness and professionalism. He and Paul made the whole process so much better than we thought it was going to be. They reduced our stress levels at a very difficult and sad time. We cannot thank them enough.

I have never owned a Rolls Royce, but if ever I do I will call it Arnold, or, more likely, Lizzie. Arnold Funeral Service worked flawlessly as a team headed up by the amazing and totally wonderful Lizzie from the Beaconsfield office. Right from the first time we, dad and two daughters, met her to discuss funeral arrangements for a much loved wife and mother we knew we were in excellent hands. It wasn’t just the ocean of sympathy and understanding, nor the patience and the time she spent with us. Nor the practical advice sensitively given. It wasn’t the pledge to take the difficult work of coordinating the coroners office, the church, cars, pall bearers, florists, card printers, graveyards and grave diggers and local authorities. It was all of the above, and much much more, because she cared about us, and knew we wanted the best for the deceased, Barbara Leake, which she delivered perfectly. Even when she became unavailable for a few days others from Team Arnold stepped in and showed what a great group of people they are and that they could be totally relied upon. Somehow this remarkable lady did so much for us that she made what was, inevitably, a sad day, one to remember with happy memories. I have no hesitation or reservation in recommending Arnold Funeral Service, and when my time comes I know they take care of me as well as they did Barbara.

Arnold's came recommended and I am so grateful. Our experience with them has been faultless, no request too much trouble, everything done with grace and professionalism. Planning a funeral is never something you want to do but the team in Farnham Common have been fantastic throughout our journey and it is greatly appreciated by our family. I will also say that the final bill was also very reasonable too, especially when you consider what they provided for us.

I’d like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone at Arnold’s for the exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism they showed during such a difficult time for our family. Paul, along with every member of the team, was absolutely wonderful throughout the entire process. I had been dreading the day we would have to arrange and discuss Dad’s funeral, but they made everything so much easier than I ever imagined possible. Their kindness, patience, and genuine care helped make an incredibly painful time in both my mum’s and my life a little more bearable after losing Dad, and for that I will always be thankful. I truly cannot recommend Arnold’s highly enough. While I hope we won’t need their services again for a very long time, I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone needing support and guidance during such a heartbreaking time.
