Liz Rochester - Funeral Arranger

020 8390 4996liz@garnersfunerals.com

I’ve been working in the funeral profession for 20 years and have been with Garner’s Funeral Service for 11 of those. I always wanted to help people through difficult times, and one day I saw a notice for a funeral arranger position and decided to apply.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, going out to eat and trying new foods, and taking day trips at the weekend to explore new towns and cities.

This is where the business started. Our original location was at 53 The Broadway, just below Tolworth Tower. Due to local development, we relocated in 2017 to our new shop at 4 Tolworth Broadway. We’re just opposite Our Lady Immaculate Church.

Thank you, Garner’s Funeral Service. Although in the end, we did not use their services, we were impressed by the sensitivity, patience, and kindness that the staff demonstrated throughout our experience. Liz R. was particularly professional and informative, and we are grateful for her assistance in navigating this sad and overwhelming journey. We truly appreciate the support and understanding she provided during this difficult time.

My family first chose to use Garners Funeral Services in 2007. A family run business, they could not be more empathetic, considerate, kind, gentle, offering help, advise and support with every aspect of arranging a funeral. We have engaged their services on two further occasions, more recently in September 2023, and their service was first class every time, despite the gap in years. Everything running very smoothly from their part, and the funeral team assisted very diplomatically and took immediate initiative in adapting and smoothing over for the slight hitches caused by others during the service and burial. They went to great lengths to source a specific coffin that was unusually out of stock; they cracked on and they did not disappoint and we were so relieved and happy to be able to honour my late Mum's wishes with the very similar alternative. I cannot recommend them enough and especially give huge thanks to Howard, David and the lovely Liz at their Tolworth branch. The Team are very professional, they always look incredible smart and were very respectful to the family and friends on the day. They arranged for the release of doves at the graveside which was very well received and a final emotional farewell. Look no further than Garners Funeral Services. Thank you so very much for all your help, understanding and care

I couldn't praise more Garner's Funeral Service. From the very beginning when I scarcely knew what to do for my mother's funeral, Vicki was magnificent from the first phone call, and afterwards when we met to go through the details of the funeral. She, and the rest of the team, were so understanding, thoughtful and accommodating of our wishes. Their support and suggestions made all the difference. I would highly recommend this family run funeral service for a caring and personal touch, with meticulous attention to detail. David, Tom, and the rest of the team on the day of the funeral were absolute stars. I couldn't recommend them enough.

The whole team at Garner's were absolutely brilliant before, during and after my father's funeral. Our whole family owe them a debt of gratitude for their excellent service - I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

If I could get six stars I would! At this most stressful and difficult time, my mum‘s funeral and the lead up to it was handled with the upmost in compassion and understanding by Vicki and all of the staff at Garners. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and the attention to detail in looking after my mum was simply amazing
