My mum passed away three years ago, and I was so fortunate that the care home recommended Dean Harper and his colleagues. Recently I found myself having to arrange my father's funeral, and asking Dean again to look after my dad was an obvious choice. The care and support that Dean provides is second to none. I knew that my father was in safe hands, and Dean and his team guided me every step of the way, through the admin and organisation in the first few days, and then on the day of the funeral itself. They made everything so much easier for me, and their care is exemplary. I am so grateful to them, and would recommend them to all who are in the sad position of needing their services.

As a family we could not have been happier with the service we received, under very sad circumstances. We said we wanted a requiem mass in England, followed by land/sea travel back to Dublin for a burial in Dad's home city. Dean Harper's FD organised everything in a very professional manner with all details considered. They drove my father right through to the FD's premises in Dublin. We found it a very smooth process, which helped so much when grief is hard to manage. I wholly recommend this company to anyone else, as I am sure the service we received is of the standard provided to others. Thank you.

My father passed away unexpectedly, leaving our family in shock and completely unprepared. From the moment we connected with Dean and his team, however, they provided a steadying hand, guiding us through each step with compassion and professionalism. They were not only approachable and empathetic but also exceptionally efficient, offering insightful suggestions and keeping us updated at every stage. Anna Marie, the celebrant, was truly outstanding. She took the time to visit us, asking thoughtful questions and putting together a beautiful, heartfelt service. The eulogy she crafted perfectly captured our dad’s life beautifully, honouring the special man that he was. Every detail was handled with care and precision. The hearse and cars were immaculate, the flower arrangements were fresh, beautifully arranged, and reasonably priced. On the day of the service, Dean directed his team flawlessly, ensuring everything ran smoothly and respectfully. I wholeheartedly recommend this business to anyone who has lost a loved one. Dean and his team are exceptional people who go above and beyond to make a painful process easier to bear. Their “nothing is too much trouble” attitude, combined with genuine empathy and attention to detail, made us feel supported throughout, allowing us to give our dad the farewell he truly deserved. Our deepest gratitude goes to Dean and his team for making such a difficult time a little more manageable.

Dean and his team very caringly took care of everything when we said goodbye to my father in law. Nothing was too much trouble and the patience was endless. I cannot recommend Dean and also Anna enough. Even when mums new shoe split completely and there was a dental incident too you took it all in your stride while we believe Dad had the last laugh! Thank you so much xx

My elderly cousin passed away under particularly sad and lonely circumstances and it was several months before I even found out about it - living, as I do, in a different part of the country. I turned out to be his nearest next-of-kin and so it fell to me to make all the arrangements for his funeral, cremation and interment in a pre-existing grave-plot he had provided for his late partner and himself. Dean Harper Funeral Directors were recommended to me by the priest during my long-distance arrangements with him - and I have to say I have been very impressed indeed by the company’s caring professionalism and first-class service in every aspect of this sad occasion. I was able to discuss every detail with Dean over the phone and between us, we were able to provide my cousin with the best possible send-off. His headstone, too, was handled by the company’s own stonemasons and his inscription was able to be planned and executed exactly as I wished. I would heartily recommend Dean Harper Funeral Directors as being a particularly caring, adaptable, sympathetic and professional company.

Huge thanks to Dean, Anna, Carrie and the whole team for arranging the funeral, flowers, and everything in between for my Nan's funeral. They make the entire process as easy as they can during a very difficult time and their attention to detail is second to none. Thanks so much - highly recommended.

Due to a long and drawn out illness my Mother had chance to plan her own funeral and she chose Dean Harper Funeral Directors for when the time came.
As I live outside Walsall I wasn't familiar with Dean and his team, but from the moment Mom passed away everything was arranged by Dean and his team, and all of Mom's wishes were catered for.
On the day of the funeral we were totally taken aback by the dignity and respect that all Dean's team showed to not only Mom, but all our family, and the day couldn't have run any smoother. I would like to thank Dean, but especially Carrie and Anna for their kindness and support during this most difficult time.

From the onset to completion, the team at Dean Harper's were kindness and professional throughout, even negotiating the seamless return of Mum from Cornwall to her home in Walsall. Mum had chosen many of the aspects of her funeral personally and would have been delighted with the outcome. Thanks to all and happily recommend their service.

Dean and his team have looked after both my mother and father. The fact that I used Dean for my father (after my mother) tells you that they excelled. From the initial talks through to the actual funeral they were always very professional in their execution and extremely compassionate in their delivery. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble. I would not hesitate in recommending Dean Harper.

I have had dealings with dean harper over the last 10 years. I have to say that I can’t recommend them highly enough. We recently had to organise a friends funeral. So when 4 of us turned up to deal with the arrangements of our lovely friend, dean harper took all of our wishes into consideration, and it wasn’t going to be a typical funeral. Anna handled it all with professionalism and commented on never knowing a group of friends as close as we were. Every last wish that we and our friend needed was met…with no problems at all. It has left us all feeling that we all did our best and Dean and the team allowed us to do everything we wanted and needed to do.
So thank you to all at Dean Harper for allowing us to say goodbye to a very special lady…..Haze
Regards from Loz, Debs, Michelle and Lisa

Dean Harper came highly recommended to us after our 10 year old daughter passed away in April. I am so glad we chose them as the care and support Dean and his team have shown us has been nothing short of amazing. They went above and beyond to ensure that Eva had the perfect send off. On the day itself I was understandably very upset and anxious but Dean was there to support and guide me through it as gently as possible. Everyone who attended said how beautiful the service was and I will now recommend Dean to anyone who needs to plan a funeral. You are in very good hands with them and they will look after you and your loved one from start to finish 💛 thank you Dean, Anna and the team for everything you did for Eva 💛

An exemplary family-run funeral directors.

I have used Dean Harper Funeral Directors twice in the last three years, firstly for my mother and just recently for my father.
They run the most wonderful and caring business led by Dean who is a complete gentleman and guides the family in a professional and diligent caring way.
The attention to detail and the personal touch along with a genuine sense of respect from your first contact to the final day is second to none.
If anyone is having to go through the experience of losing a loved one then Dean Harper’s come more than recommended.
They are a great company and a credit to their profession and I would not hesitate in recommending them.
