Who We Are… Owned and run by the Jeffery family, Henry Paul Funerals was founded with the sole belief that a final farewell should reflect the personal preferences of the dearly departed and their family. Death is a part of life which touches us all at some point.

A funeral is a tribute to those that have been a special part of our lives; reflecting their life, loves, beliefs and personality.
Henry Paul Funerals… …opened in March 2010, by partners Garry Jeffery, Jacqueline Jeffery and Sean Cawley, with the sole belief that a final farewell should reflect the life of the dearly departed and their families last wishes. Continuing the family care, both Connor and Millie are now caring for bereaved families on a daily basis, guiding them through the process in a truly personal and empathetic way. They believe death is a part of life which touches us all at some point and that’s why they believe in celebrating and commemorating the wonderful individuals that make up our community, giving them the send off they deserve. A funeral is a tribute to those that have been a special part of our lives; and should reflect their life, loves, beliefs and personality. Every part of the service we deliver is to the highest standard, with the utmost attention to detail. We enable families to choose a fitting funeral ceremony. Many remain traditional, some reflect the passions of their loved one and others forego mourning to celebrate life. All services are conducted with the greatest respect and care by all our staff, and we will always be there to help you through the process, before, during and after the service. testimonials “Dear Millie and Connor, a huge thank you for everything you have done to help me arrange Chris’ service. You have dealt with me with the utmost respect, compassion and empathy. As if you were helping a friend and not ‘just’ another client. And nothing was too much. I know this is ‘your job’, but I truly feel you went above and beyond. Thank you” C . Bennett “Dear All at Henry Paul, the family would like to thank you for your sympathetic and efficient direction of the funeral for our dear dad. Many of the finer touches were noticed and much appreciated. It is not surprising that your company enjoys such a good reputation” T . Smith “To all at Henry Paul, thank you all so very much for your exemplary service, help & support you gave me in the loss of my father. I have nothing but praise in your service. personally the fact that the pallbearer's stayed nearby looking very respectful, it gave me a chance to thank them. Normally I have noticed the pallbearer's just disappear” S . Sayer “I could not have chosen a better company to look after my sister, all showed great understanding and care for me. Millie you have all the qualities that are needed at a time like this for families. We thank you for your kindness, empathy and care. You made a terrible time bearable” C . Joyce
