John, What can I say?
You have been the kindest, most helpful undertaker during a truly sad and difficult time. You also have such a respectful nature and I could not have wished for someone else to fill your role. Your “Boys” on the day of the funeral were amazing and everything was what we would have wished for our Dad. Thank you for making us feel supported and looked after. Have our best wishes and thanks for taking care of Dad.

“Our Son, who was a Farrier by trade, was sadly taken from us at the age of 31. Having been badly let down by another local Funeral Director, we were recommended to contact John at Beltinge & District Funeral Service. Our every wish was catered for including having a magnificent carriage pulled by a team of six black horses. Nothing was too much trouble for John & his team. They went that extra mile to ensure that, although a very sad occasion, this was a spectacular send off that our special Son deserved. We would like to say thank you so much for your care of Kevin, a very professional service and your attention to detail was second to none. We highly recommend this company, they won’t let you down.”
Kevin & Ann Howes & Family, Herne Bay

Dear Amanda and everyone at Beltinge & District Funeral Service Ltd,
With love and thanks for supporting us through the loss of our lovely Dad and for looking after him in your care.
We wanted to extend special thanks to the team and pall bearers on the day. We didn’t get to say it on the day but you made an unbearable day so much easier with your professionalism and care.
Best wishes
The “K” Family
“My Father had been so impressed by the funeral you arranged for his Grandson the previous year he had insisted that when his time came that we would engage your services. Once again you helped us through a very difficult and sad time by quickly having everything in place.
We are so glad that we had the horse drawn funeral to carry our Dad to his resting place and you accommodated all our requests especially for him. It was not only a dignified and fitting way for this elderly gent to travel it was majestic and we felt that there was nothing that could have been done to honour and celebrate his 83 years. Thank you so much.”
Jennie Lee, Strood
“There are not enough words enough to thank you for everything that you have done for Shirley and the family at this difficult time. You and your staff have been wonderful. The funeral service was exactly what Dad would have wanted – just the right amount of ‘ceremony’ mixed with the humour and fun that was so much a part of his life. Your support of Shirley in the time before the day was very much appreciated and we are all so very grateful. You made the whole journey leading up to the funeral so much easier to navigate – I think we would have been lost without you. I cannot thank you enough for organising the newspaper reporter to come and see us. Front page news was so much more than we were expecting! The sense of occasion you and your staff brought to the funeral was truly magnificent. I will never forget the day and felt so proud to be Richard’s Daughter; He was a larger than life character and leaves a big hole in all our lives. He may be gone but will never be forgotten.”
D. Warren, Dorking, Surrey
“Beltinge Funeral Services guided our family through the process of arranging a funeral with sensitivity and kindness. John Wells helped us with all the administrative tasks from form filling to arranging the church for the service and help finding a venue for a funeral tea. I have never had a death of someone so close in my family before my Father passed away and his reassurance helped us all to cope at a really sad time. I also lost my Sister who lived abroad and my Brother in difficult circumstances. Once again John Wells and his team were experienced enough to deal with all the problems encounter. I have no hesitation in recommending this professional efficient cost effective service and supportive staff.”
Amelia Bannock, Whitstable
“I would like to thank you for your patience and kindness you have shown to our family. You were very friendly & worked in a professional manor, helping us through this difficult time. Your help and understanding was of great comfort and I could not have asked for a better send off for my Mum Joyce. Especially knowing she was in your capable hands. Although we are located some 56 miles from your office and to which the funeral was held, you handled us and our Mum with great care and diligence and went beyond all expectations. We are eternally grateful for your professional approach and helping hand making a really tough time more bearable.”

You put together a Service of Remembrance of Life for Chris, which the Crematorium kindly taped for us, along with having Chris’s cremated remains sent to us in Australia, we were able to have our own private family service. He has been laid to rest with his Dad. Thank you so much, we are eternally grateful, we couldn’t have done it without you.””

“Sadly when my Wife Eileen passed away; peacefully at home, my family and I were faced with what to do next? Beltinge Funeral Directors had been highly recommended to us. Despite it being early hours of the morning John came to our home offering compassion and sincerity. Over the next few days he and his colleague’s guided us through the preparations for my Wife’s final journey. His attention to detail was second to none; my Wife’s funeral was handled with dignity and respect. I have therefore and will continue to recommend Beltinge Funeral Directors to everyone.”
Mr Charles Cooper, Whitstable

I would not hesitate to recommend your company to my friends and family.””
