Took excellent care of my dad at the worst time of our lives as a family. Sym and Mel looked after us as a family and we saw dad as often as we could. Communication and attention to detail was excellent

Mel and the team were amazing arranging my Mum’s funeral, nothing was too much trouble and Mel kept in constant contact to ensure that my Mum had the funeral she wanted and deserved.In addition to this, Doncaster funerals could not be beaten on cost, thus can be very stressful for some families that might not have had time to prepare.Thank you for the dignity and respect you gave to my Mum and how caring and compassionate Doncaster funerals have been.I would not recommend anywhere else.

Doncaster Funerals are Amazing! From the second you walk in the door you are made to feel at ease, Mel is very attentive to what you are looking for even if you do not have all of the answers at the time, they are so patient and nothing is too much trouble, especially when they collected our Dad from the hospital they made it possible for us to visit him in the chapel before we headed home (thank you Sym)We had a intimate service in their own chapel on site and we had been in regular contact with Mel and she is amazing, she produced the most amazing video tribute to music and sent us a digital fingerprint for our memories, nothing is too much trouble we found some extra photos last minute and Mel made sure she added them in to the video for us.Mel also put us in contact with Beka to conduct the service. Highly Recommend as she was incredible.The day of the service which was a difficult day to say the least Mel and the Team were amazing.Thank you so much Mel and Sym for everything you made the day one we will always remember.Highly recommend! And again thank you for making our Dad’s service so beautiful

Myself and the family could not praise Mel and the team at Doncaster Funerals enough. From the moment you walk into their office you are made to feel at ease, everything is explained simply with no pressure on you to make your decision there and then. By the end of your time in their office Mel feels more like a friend of the family than a salesperson.You have a range of services which are priced very reasonable, when it comes to the type of service we chose a cremation, we wanted bright and cheerful, Mel advised us on a new crematorium Memoria near Barnby Dun. We visited them and it was exactly what we wanted. Once we had booked the service nothing was too much trouble, I had an issue with a picture montage and music, Mel took it over and completely knocked it out of the park, the celebrant they chose was fantastic Beka and again we could not thank her enough. On the day of the service Mel and her team were there on time and there was no rushing to get you there, everything was at your pace, after the service Mel and her team were very respectful and didn't try to move you on but gave you enough time to talk with everyone in attendance.On a day which is hard enough for you and your family, Mel and the team at Doncaster Funerals were amazing, so thank you to you all for making the day so rememberableChris x

I don't normally do reviews but felt I had to on this occasion, Doncaster Funerals were amazing with the family at such an upsetting time, not only did they provide a really good professional service giving full respect to my late wife, but right from the day we met Mel and Sim when the family was at its lowest point, they lifted our hearts and minds, something I will never forget, I can't thank them enough. Sim, Mel these words from the bottom of my heart. Thank you x

I really can't thank them enough for the care and support shown to my family in recent weeks as they organised the funeral of a loved one taken in sudden and tragic circumstances. Nothing was too much trouble, they were so kind, understanding and easy to talk to. Above all, they really do care, this is not just a job to them, they are truly invested in the families who entrust their loved ones into their care. Thank you again, Mel, Sym and team.

After the very unexpected and sudden passing of my mum, we can’t thank Doncaster Funerals enough for the compassion and kindness shown towards myself and Phil during an extremely difficult time. Symeon and the rest of his team went above and beyond to allow us to give Mum the send off she deserved, allowing us to add personal touches to the service aswell as it being delivered beautifully by Beka. The whole team treated me & Phil as close friends rather than just customers. We would highly recommended Doncaster Funerals, not only for their affordable prices, but their friendly and approachable manner too. We can’t thank you enough for all your help, it is very much appreciated. We know Mum would have been so proud of the service and send off we were able to give her and plan in such a short space of time, thanks to you. Phil says “Symeon - you’re a true gent!”.

I chose Doncaster Funerals because my mam wanted a small intimate send off. I am so glad I did. I spoke to Mel and she told me what to expect, making it very clear that I could change or add anything. She was so kind and patient. She even told me I could get in touch with her anytime. Her understanding of how hard it was for me was amazing. Mel and a gentleman were the ones who collected my mam after her passing. They were so respectful and kind. Becka was the lady who performed the service. She spoke to me to receive information on my lovely mam. Becks was fantastic. The funeral was everything mam wanted and I could not have wished for more wonderful people to perform it. I am so grateful to all of them for their help and support

I can highly recommend Doncaster Funerals, I recently arranged my dad's funeral, something no one wants to deal with, thank goodness for Mel and the team, they handled us with care, compassion and professionalism, even when we changed dates and times several times, nothing was too much trouble. I felt like Mel was an old friend, she understood how we felt and everything was arranged with dignity and care.I just wanted to say a BIG thank you to Mel and Symeon, your care and understanding somehow made the situation less painful.

We were astounded by the professionalism and care that Doncaster Funerals took over and at my wife's recent funeral. They were a pleasure to work with, and many of the 'mourners' too commented to this effect. A very slick and empathetic operation. Many thanks to Mel and all at Doncaster Funerals. Great service at a delicate time.

From the initial phone call late in the evening , following the sudden death of our lovely Dad the team at Doncaster Funerals stepped in and worked to make such a distressing time so much easier. Nothing was too much trouble and messages and phone calls were dealt with swiftly and we were guided through all the way throughto the service by Bekka the celebrant and beyond. Would highly recommend the team at Doncaster Funerals .

We had the very sad experience of dealing with another family death very soon after another, and we were dreading having to go through the whole process of arranging funerals again after such a short space of time. However, Sym and Mel yet again were amazing. They knew our circumstances from the most recent bereavement and went above and beyond to provide us with a bespoke service that was fitting for our cherished family member. We were the first to use their chapel of rest for the funeral service. It was perfect for what we needed and wanted for our loved one. The premises are lovely and our celebrant Beka was wonderful. She fully grasped who we were and who our loved one was. It was not an easy eulogy to write but she made it perfect in every way.I couldn’t recommend Doncaster funerals enough. They are compassionate and a delight to have on your side at such a hard time as grief and bereavement. Thank you Sym, Mel and Beka, you truly were amazing.

Dad would have been so proud to have had Mel walking him out and taking him on his final journey. The respect they show for the one you love is above and beyond what I ever expectedThank you to the team, and Mel I am forever in your debt. Clare, Janet and Adele x

I would Like to Thank everyone at Municipal Funerals for all their help in putting together a Final Farewell Funeral for my wife Irene , Symeon Waller who was the first person to call & talk to myself & my family in regards to what we wanted for my wife's funeral , Symeon allowed my family & myself to let him know what we wanted for my wife's final farewell calibration of her Life , he was very straight forward & honest with us about what we needed to do , Symeon then arranged for Stacy Rowley to be our Funeral Arranger , Stacy did an Amazing service for Irene , when Stacy first called to see me at my home regarding the funeral arrangements , she understood everything we told her about Irene & when Stacy spoke about Irene at the Funeral she had captured the very Essence of who Irene was without ever having met her , All of our Family & Friends who attended Irene's Funeral are still talking about the excellent service we received & how well Symeon , Stacy & Mel had looked after me & my family during & after Irene's Funeral , It cost nothing (other thank a phone call) to ring them & arrange for them to call & see what they can do & they will tell you all you need to know about the care & the cost of the Funeral ( It wasn't at all expensive or over the top financially & there were No Hidden Cost's ), Symeon , Stacy & Mel showed me there Caring , Compassionate & Kindness which helped a lot while I & My Family were grieving the loss of our much Loved Wife , Mother , Grandmother ,Great Grandmother . I have Asked Symeon & his Brilliant Team to help Arrange my Funeral when my time comes , ( though he doesn't have a definite date for it just yet ) , I hope this will help anyone reading this to ring them & Just listen to what they have to sayMy Kindest Regards to All The Municipal Funeral Team

I lost my baby in 2022 and had the worst experience with the hospital. My baby had passed away and for a further 6 months I carried her before the hospital removed her from my scar tissue. It was honestly the worst time in my whole life. 6 months later they called me to tell me they still had my baby in the freezer in Hull hospital I was in complete shock as this was never communicated and as far as I was aware when they removed the baby she was within a tumour so I thought they had already cremated her. This was a massive shock and I tried 8 different funeral places around Hull and Doncaster and nobody would help me. they all explained that because she didn't have a birth and death certificate this meant she couldn't be cremated. I was absolutely devastated until I spoke with MEL who was the most kind and sympathetic person I have ever come across. Even though it was her day off she continued to communicate with me trying her best to see if there was away around the issues. I am utterly touched and deeply thankful to her for being so kind and understanding. I have had the worst week of my life and it continued to get worse but Mel definitely made it easier especially being there for me to talk too. I am utterly grateful and she is a complete asset to this company. Thankyou for restoring my faith in humanity! You are one in a million!

Symeon and team were absolutely fantastic in dealing with our mum's funeral - from the very first contact to after the event. Symeon is a lovely guy who really cares that you get the event you want for your loved one. He was great with our Dad who had lost his wife of 65 years. The celebrant Karen was also briliant. Captured mum so well and delivered the service impeccably. Everything went so smoothly and professionally on the day. It couldn't have gone better. They're so much better (and cheaper) than the corporates. We loved the fact that the pricing is so transprarent with no hidden costs. Also that there was no attempt to upsell - in fact the opposite. We can't recommend them highly enough.

Damn I posted in questions, sorrySo from day one when me and my sister lost our mother, Simion was great and on our level. I get he will change to suit each family that he deals with. It's never a great time to lose anyone and this place makes it that little bit easier, I know price shouldn't matter but people struggle with the cost of funerals and with his prices it's just a great company and the send off it best to none. Top people and thanks for everything. Hope I never have to recommend you but if the time comes I most certainly will. All the best to everyone who works in a line of work most of us just couldn't do.

Symeon, Darren and Amy gave our family the best service at a very fair price. They are kind, compassionate and conscientious. We went through what we wanted for our mum and Amy presented us with options but at no point was there any upselling. I had spoken to a few funeral directors before deciding that we wanted Doncaster Municipal because they really cared about our situation and I knew from that they would look after mum. They gave mum a lovely send off and the celebrant they put us in touch with, Karen, was also amazing. Thank you so much x

Staff were professional and very caring when dealing with my father’s funeral. Nothing was too much trouble. Everything was considered and our needs were at the forefront from beginning to end. When a funeral director tells you which bits of the conversation you might cry at, you know that they care. This is an excellent company and I would highly recommend it.

Kerry Noble

Whilst in the middle of our Bereavement, this firm and it’s staff were truly wonderful to us. The compassion, dignity and professionalism which we were given at this time was second to none. I wasn’t on ‘a budget’ but my late Dad chose everything he wanted…In other words…He just ‘wanted to go where he was going without a huge fanfare and malarky’. It all went as my Dad wanted it but what a day it was.
