From out first contact, Steph and Robbie made us feel welcome and at ease. Their kind and thoughtful attention to every detail at this difficult time has made the whole process of arranging the funeral for our dad Stan more bearable. I would have no hesitation in recommending Herbert Murray to anyone else looking for the best possible care for their loved ones. Thank you both.

I cannot speak highly enough of these guys. They are competitively priced too. They really do care about the service they give. They are so community spirited too in Ashton-on-Mersey village. They made a very difficult time so comfortable.Karina Pickering

You could not ask for a more caring company to cater for the needs of your loved one and yourself at such a sad time. Robbie and Steph will ensure that your wishes and those of the deceased are carried out with care and compassion.

I could not recommend Robbie and the team enough. They were amazing for me, my family and friends in what was an extremely difficult time and I’m extremely grateful. Nothing was too much of a problem and they did anything we asked within their power and Robbie kept a great level of communication throughout. Also looking after our loved one in a nice environment, taking flowers which arrived days after the service as well as supporting us all throughout the day. I’m really glad we used Herbert Murray and I’d highly recommend them to anybody in the Trafford area.

I would highly recommend using this company. Steph was calm, reassuring and knowledgeable. She guided us through a difficult experience and our family felt safe in her hands. We felt reassured our late dad was very well looked after under her and Robbies care. She made us feel like she knew him in life, even though she didn’t. Her recommendation to use Reverend Richard was spot on - he was fantastic and again his professionalism and warmth made the service so unique - our dad would have loved it !

I had to arrange a long distance funeral for my mother, I was recommended Steph and Robbie because they have a reputation for providing a very personalised service and I was not disappointed. They went out of their way to guide and support me through the process, even though we didn't actually meet until the day before the funeral. The funeral was beautiful, Steph and Robbie provided numerous personal touches which were very much appreciated. I highly recommend them.

It’s always an honour and a privilege to work with these ladies, because Robbie and Steph are the best in the business. The attention to detail, genuine care and compassion for all families and dignity with which they conduct all the funerals they look after is second to none. Whatever your situation, whoever you are, Herbert Murray Funeral Directors will treat you and your loved one with absolute respect, and make sure the funeral is carried out in accordance with your wishes. The funeral home itself is beautiful, and creates a calm, pleasant environment to talk through the arrangements. I would highly recommend their services without hesitation.

Absolutely amazing. They provided us with a personal service and were truly dedicated at looking after our loved one Elizabeth and making sure the whole family were looked after before during and after the service. Both Steph Robyn are truly amazing. Couldn't recommend enough.

I have worked with and for many Funeral Directors over the years and am proud to rate the team at Herbert Murray as among the most dedicated, professional and compassionate that I have ever met. Their manner is so approachable and personal and yet they are utterly meticulous and efficient in every way. I cannot recommend Robbie and Stephanie highly enough. They will look after your loved one as if he or she were their own family.
