TESTIMONIALS
Jon Grieves
Eric organised my Nana's funeral. He really understood the loss that the family had just under taken. He came straight away to collect my Nana from the nursing home. We then traveled with him to the funeral home where my Nana rested until the day of the funeral. The family visited my Nana during this time and it was no trouble at all for the chapel to be made available at Any time.
Eric guided my Dad and Aunty through the process, as even though expected, a loss of a family member needs Compassionate guidance, this was sincerely given.
On time Eric walked down the Road inftont of the Hearse carrying my Nana. His hat & black stick with silver top in his hands, head slightly bowed down.
Outside the house as the cars came to a stop, Eric now at the side of the Hearse took a gentle respectfull pausing Bow to my Nana,
before turning and greating the morners.
Gradually without any pressure in a timely manner Birch n Co organised the chaos of Flowers, People, Kids, who goes where and what the following cars can expect. He knew what was needed to reduce that already anxious funeral feeling.
We left from my Aunts with Eric walking infront of the funeral cortege, giving my Nana a Bow before setting off. This time wearing his Top Hat. My Dad & Aunty had arranged for my Nana to pass the house which was her Home for 50+ years. And the Whole Family had so Many Happy Memories with her and Grandad.
Arrival at the Cemetery, it took a bit of time as there were a lot of old friends of the family to acknowledge. People to park up, Again we were subtly informed of what was happening. Who was Bearing (carrying) my Nana into the Chapple and how to do it.
This all seems a Blur, must be the tears. A great Honour.
Eric was there watching, checking everyone was in the right place, not left out if late. Collected and securly kept the donations in lou of flowers.
I have attended Many Funerals, there is no doubt Eric gives the Grieving family's a lot more attention to detail. Therefore, that would be the same throughout the process.

After searching around for that only person who we trusted to look after our Mother, we knew from the minute we contacted Eric that we had found the right place. He was so very thoughtful, empathetic, considerate and very respectful. He helped us enormously by directing us in every way we needed when we had no clue. On the day of the funeral he calmed us down by just speaking to us, reassuring us in his calming voice. Before leaving Eric and his driver bowed their heads to mum before walking and leading the cars onto the main road, stopping all the traffic. We were able to pass mums old stomping ground before arriving at the chapel. This company is recommended by us if you are looking for a respectful, kind, caring and compassionate funeral director that can help you at every stage of this difficult time, they really do care about everyone involved on that sad day, making it that little bit easier for you.
From coming into my home & taking hold of my hand, Eric offered his sincere condolences. He said he would help me through this process any time of day or night & that he did. Nothing was too much trouble. I didn't know where to start who to contact and this was all sorted for me & I was pointed in the right direction when needed. His tone was carming respectful, he was totally understandable when I was unable to talk because of Grief.
The day of the comital went so smoothly, arrived at here on time. Cars shining Bright H***** had the flag neatly draped over him & the Family flowers, plus many others.
Eric walked infront of the Hearse all the way to Worsley Road.
At the Church we were pleased with the swiftness of service. Eric & his staff were helpful & careing.
I recommend Eric as I was able to visit H***** at any time I needed to in the time we were apart for the 1st time in 46 years. The comital was inevitable. Compassionate Care from Eric Birch helped me cope.
