Sussex Funeral Services - Philip and Sallie Evans - were extremely professional and helped our family through a very emotional process. Philip as celebrant was excellent and the ceremony was handled with sensitivity, relevance and understanding.

Well what can I say, Sally and Phillip did my husband very proud, with their help we organised the most amazing send off for him - organising a motorcycle and side car hearse, sourcing the coffin I wanted & writing & delivering an amazing eulogy.... They dealt with the arrangements for the funeral professionally and with compassion from start to finish, communication throughout was excellent. Friends and family commented on how beautiful the service was & how well the service was delivered by Phillip in his role of Celebrant. Sallie was a fab funeral director on the day, organising the bikers who had turned up to escort my husband on his final ride. As a celebrant Phillip managed to capture the essence of my husband absolutely in the time we spent talking about him. Many people said how much they had learned from Phillips eulogy and from each of our individual tributes.Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the best send off my amazing husband could have ever wished for .read more

Sussex Funerals (aka Brighton Funeral Directors) handle my late mother's funeral. I found them professional, caring and, I believe, competitive - although we did 'shop around' and this belief is based on a 'in-laws' recent comparative funeral in the... area.Philip was pragmatic and there was no attempt to 'upsell'. He handle the church, organist, etc.The family was very happy with his service.read more
