I would like to thank Douglas Mercer & Son for the compassion, empathy and professionalism they showed towards all our family during such a heartbreaking time. We have trusted them with both of our parents' funeral arrangements and cannot recommend them highly enough. Molly has been amazing, caring and understanding to our needs and that of our family. She has supported us through this difficult time and has guided us in making our mum's final time as loving as possible. Henk was also so caring during one of our visits and his professionalism was evident.
Thankyou again to the whole team for the amazing service you have provided for us in such a difficult time in our lives and at a time that is remembered by families forever.

We received such a professional and personal service from start to finish. Nothing was too much trouble. The team were all so friendly, polite, supportive and respectful. The Orders of Service were so professional and a wonderful tribute. We are so thankful to all of them.

We cannot thank Mercer’s Funeral Directors enough for their compassion and professionalism during such a difficult time. From the very beginning, we felt completely supported and cared for as a family.

A special thank you to Molly, who was incredibly attentive, patient, and understanding throughout the entire process. Her gentle guidance and genuine empathy made everything so much easier for us to manage. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and she ensured every detail was handled with care and respect.

We truly felt that Mercer’s went above and beyond they were absolutely incredible, and we are so grateful for their kindness and support.
Thank you for looking after Mum- Trish Thomas .

Molly, Nick and the team gave us a great service from the first point of contact and every step of our journey. They were always clear and precise with their communication and guided us through this hard time with dignity and respect. Their kindness shone through to the entire family and guests at the service. No question was too silly and no request was too much. Molly helped us create a unique and fitting tribute to my wife that everyone will always remember.

I have to say that I was extremely impressed by Molly and her team at Douglas Mercer & Son. Molly took full control of our funeral arrangements to provide us with the excellent support and guidance throughout. Molly was extremely efficient and very professional helping us to achieve a perfect send off for my mother, accommodating all our needs with such warmth and sympathy, at every stage. I have to say that between Molly and Deacon Eugene, they transformed a sad day into a pleasurable and positive experience, to which, I am extremely grateful to all the team, especially so to Molly, who did such an excellent job.

The team at Mercers were very supportive throughout, making arrangements was straightforward. On the day of the funeral everything was as requested, vehicles and staff very well presented and took care of us all. Would recommend reviewing services on their web site before your first meeting as it made discussions and decisions easier. Thanks Team Mercers

I found the service was fine but my mother had a prepaid funeral plan and yet I had to pay an extra £560.00. I accepted this but when I advised that we would not need the close family funeral car we were told that they could not reimburse this cost as it was included in the terms of a prepaid funeral. Ironically we were subsequently advised that the Funeral Directors would have had to cancel the funeral if the extra £560.00 was not paid two days prior to the event. This was quite an unpleasant experience at a difficult time as I had enough stress without this.
