Independent Family-Run Funeral Directors in Suffolk

Andrew was recommended to me by the care home, I found them to be excellent in everything they did. Courteous and sympathetic ,which was just right. Many thanks Andrew.

I highly recommend Markham Funeral Service, 5 star service from Andy from start to finish. Andy helped and guided us every step of the way when we were faced with organising our mums funeral and not having any idea what to do. Andy took time to explain everything that was available to us from choosing the type of coffin/basket we wanted, the different options of transport available for mum to the crematorium, flowers and order of service. Andy also recommended and organised a fantastic Celebrant to conduct the funeral. If we had any questions or concerns in the days leading up to the funeral Andy was always quick to respond. The day of the funeral was handled with respect and mum was well looked after just as she had been whist in the care of Andy and Nikki at Markham Funeral Service. Thank you to all the team at Markham Funeral Service, we are truly grateful and we highly recommend you.

From the very first contact with Markham Funeral Services we have all been treated with the utmost sincerity,dignity, and respect. The support and guidance in the run up to Dad’s funeral was hugely appreciated. It allowed us to face the day with total confidence and everything went flawlessly. We also appreciated the fact that they dropped off the flowers at home afterwards. Mum has been getting a great deal of pleasure and comfort from them. I just cannot thank Andy, Nikki and their team enough for everything they did. Without doubt they delivered the best experience anyone could wish for at such a desperately sad time. We will be forever grateful.

I always try to use independent and local services and so I chose Markham’s funeral services as I knew a friend had used them recently and was recommended. I entrusted them to look after my mother and from the moment they collected her from the hospice to the cremation ceremony they were absolutely fantastic, it’s a daunting task arranging a funeral for a very special mum and Andy and his team were so caring and easy to talk to , I would highly recommend them and I’m so pleased we chose them . I felt as though they genuinely cared, were professional , Compassionate and just a good experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them .

I would like to say the Markham family funeral service have been extremely helpful and supportive during my families difficult time. They spent time talking and listening to us, providing support above and beyond. Supporting our personnel requests. Communication was fantastic every step of the way. Thankyou from the bottom of our hearts, you made a difficult time a lot easier.

I found The Markham team of Andy, Nicki and Molly to be a top quality organisation ensuring everything was done in a sympathetic, courteous and highly professional manner. They were meticulous in agreeing the arrangements and offering advice where necessary. In addition they were always available to receive questions and requests for help over the phone.

Losing someone you love is devastating and navigating your way through all the arrangements that need to be made is completely overwhelming. I cannot thank Andy and Nikki enough for their kindness, compassion, understanding and professionalism following the death of my husband. From my initial conversation with Nikki, who talked about the care of a loved one which extended to their family. Through to working with Andy, making sure every decision honoured my husband’s memory. I felt supported, listened to and never rushed into a decision. The care shown to me at such a difficult time went far beyond any other experience I have had with funeral directors. I cannot recommend Markham Funeral Services highly enough - thank you.

I really cannot recommend Markham's Funeral Service Highly enough. From the very beginning, they were incredibly supportive, compassionate, and guided me through every step of arranging my brother's funeral. During one of the most difficult times of my life, Andy Markham and his team were always there to offer advice, reassurance, and support. They worked tirelessly to ensure that everything was exactly as we wanted it, paying attention to every detail and making the whole process as stress-free as possible. The service itself was handled beautifully, and their professionalism, care, and dedication were evident throughout. They went above and beyond to give my brother the send off he deserved, and for that I will be forever grateful. I really can't thank Andy Markham and his team enough for everything they have done. Their kindness and support meant so much to me and my family. An outstanding funeral service that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone. ❤️

"I cannot thank Andrew and Nicki and the team at Markham's enough for their exceptional care during such a difficult time. From our very first phone call, they provided a calm, respectful, and compassionate guiding hand. They went above and beyond to accommodate our unique requests, including arranging an all-female coffin-bearing team and warmly welcoming our dog to join the service. Hearing them play my mother's favourite song as we moved up and down the aisle was incredibly moving and personal. They took care of every single detail with immense professionalism, meaning our family didn't have to worry about a thing. They treated my mother with the utmost dignity and listened carefully to ensure everything was perfect. Their kindness made an incredibly overwhelming process so much easier to bear. I highly recommend their services to anyone in need of support." ------------------------------
