I could not fault the excellent service we had from all the staff at John Short and Son Funeral Directors, when my daughter passed away at the beginning of January. Mrs Short guided us through all the arrangements from booking the cremation at Streetly Crematorium, to arranging for our local Vicar to attend and discussing the photos and hymns (with recorded choral support) for the Order of Service, plus arranging for the correct number to be delivered to the Crematorium on the day. I was also able to visit my daughter in their Chapel of Rest prior to the Funeral. Mrs Short also recommended a local Florist, who followed all our instructions and delivered a beautiful family wreath to Shorts on the morning of the Funeral. On the day of the Funeral the hearse and limousine arrived at my home in plenty of time for the family not to be rushed and Dave, our Usher, explained the procedure for seating in the car, as I have mobility issues. Everything was organised in a calm way to avoid any stressful incidents. Everything was very well organised in a professional, compassionate and calm manner to avoid us experiencing any needless stress on such an emotional day. Thank you to all the Staff at John Short and Son for all their advice and support.

The girls who arranged everything I thank you all from the bottom of my heart ( Sue, Michelle , and Mrs Short ). To the Bearers who were impeccable and so majestic I thank you all too. The funeral was arranged complete with flowers, doves, music, order of service we only booked the wake. You gave me time to grieve but also took my calls if I needed help. So glad we chose you and thank you all once again for the beautiful send off for my beautiful mom.

So compassionate and caring,yet consummate professionals. Handled my late husband's funeral beautifully. From the moment he was in their care I just knew he was in the best hands. It gave me great comfort to know I could rely on John Shorts. They handled everything beautifully.Nothing was too much trouble and they did everything possible to ensure all the worries involved with arranging his funeral were alleviated. They were recommended to us by several people. I ,in turn, would not hesitate in recommending them personally. They truly were a godsend at the worst time of my life. So glad I entrusted Keith's care to them.Wonderful people and a true credit to their profession.Posted on Google Haley RyanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We used John Short & Son when our father passed away. From the first phone call, through to the service and final arrangements, all the staff were excellent. They make sure all the details are taken care of, and were proactive with the administration side of things to ensure everything was as efficient and stress free as possible. The keen eye for detail is even displayed when preparing the Order of Service proofs (the charity we had chosen had changed their name and this was picked up in the design process). The florist they use provided an excellent casket spray and the custom kite design we had asked for was exactly as we had envisioned. Cannot thank or recommend everyone at John Short & Son enough, especially in such a difficult time.Posted on Google john priceTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. best service ever for my wife, it was faultless cant express enough how help full Moira and other people was, thanks very much with out the help from all the team i wouldnt know what to do.
