Local Darlington Funeral Directors

Our vision at Saint and Forster is to provide a space that feels safe and comfortable. We aim to provide a service that brings comfort and peace of mind during a very difficult time. Whether you choose cremation at Darlington Crematorium; burial; a ‘green’ or environmentally friendly funeral or direct cremation, we will guide you through the process. We will give you plenty of time to discuss all of the funeral arrangements and to make sure that the funeral fully reflects the life of the person who has died. We can advise you on burial or cremation, how to register the death, and on choosing floral tributes.

If you are concerned about funeral costs we can discuss various ways of keeping these low. A funeral is about the people who are there and the words that are said; it is about love, not the amount of money that is spent. It is important to remember that there are no rules. Other than to register the death, there are no constraints and you can take as much time as you need to plan everything you need.

Planning a Funeral

For most people, funeral arrangements are the last thing on their mind, but taking some time now to pre-plan your funeral can mean that your loved ones do not have difficult decisions to make or unnecessary financial burdens to deal with when you die.

Taking some time to discuss your wishes with your family and making plans for the end of your life-such as making a will and planning your funeral- can mean that when the time comes your family knows exactly what you wanted and can put your plans into action quickly and easily.

Testimonials

Professional to a “T”. You helped us through a very hard and difficult time. I would never wish any death on anybody but if it happens I would certainly recommend your company to look after them. I know my “Dad” was well looked after and I will be forever grateful! Thank you

testimonial-img

Thank you so much for making a difficult time so much easier. After finding you through a web browser I was worried about the service I would receive for my father. I need not have worried. I cannot recommend you highly enough. The whole experience was made a lot smoother by your professionalism. Even the vicar you recommended was superb, he even made us smile between the tears. Thank you again.

The service was excellent. Nothing was a problem to do. Keith went out of his way to look after things and attend to details.

Thankyou for all your help and kindness. I wish your company every success in the future, providing those extra personalised services that the impersonal national companies do not, cannot or will not provide. I recommend your company's exemplary services wholeheartedly and enthusiastically. Thankyou.
