Is the “No Fuss” right for you?

Some clients wish for no ceremony for some reasons. It fits the preference of families who need a smaller cremation or burial ceremony. This may be for a number of reasons, be it affordability, a small family, or for personal reasons of the deceased -every client is different and Sussex Funerals respects this as a fact. The ‘No Fuss’, direct cremation or direct to grave burial options can help those in need. The ‘’No Fuss’’ package, for example, is appropriate for those who do not want a large funeral. Throughout this difficult time, our sensitive staff will provide you with the support you need, in ensuring that your personal wishes in planning the funeral are granted. Planning a Preston funeral can be challenging. This is why we offer additional services for those who will opt for a simple and direct burial or cremation.

Testimonials

Feedback and comments from our clients are very dear to us. We are proud to share these with you.

“A very dear family friend of ours passed away on the 21st of February in Hove. As we live in the north of England we went on the website to search for a reputable funeral director in Hove. We chose Phillip Evans of Sussex Funeral Services. By the time we arrived in Hove, all the arrangements for the funeral had been made to our satisfaction, and any other help we needed was catered for to a very high standard. I am back at work so hopefully, normal service will resume, in time! Once again, thank you for all your efforts and good luck for the future”. – Catherine Biggar and Mary Wilson

“I want to thank you so much for all you did Philip and for us the service was just as she wanted, and there wasn’t one thing that we could have done better, and the majority of that was down to you. I don’t think I managed to speak to you after, perhaps I did but it was a bit of a blur. So thank you again for all the time and thought you put into the service and to help us through a very sad time.” – Anne
