A J Sellman Family Funeral Directors - Cannock

Laura B.

Professional from start to finish, treating us as a family and my late husband with the upmost respect. They fully included our 14 year old son and really took his opinions onboard.
The service was a beautiful celebration of my husband’s life which told us all that life isn't measured in years as his was cut way too short but in the love we share and the hearts we touch and throughout his life he was remembered as a kind and caring gentleman who had time for everyone and family was everything to him.
The no frills approach - which we wanted, made the service even more moving, Edward did amazing with over 300 people present to pay their respects he spoke clearly and with emotional empathy which complimented the photo slide, music and chosen poetry.
The plaque was a really nice touch which outdid anything we were expecting and the order of service was of a high quality and reasonably priced.
The personal touches of the follow up calls to see how I and the family are really did show me that it wasn’t just about planning the funeral but it was about the families wellbeing also.
On the 5/2/25 we were graced with the warm sun on your faces it was like my husband was saying thank you himself ❤️💕 the is a photo of the sunrise added below.

Once again thank you all for your support during this difficult time.

On the 05/02/25 at 13:00, Jade assisted us with the planning of the funeral with care and detail.
We were not rushed and allowed the time to make the planning decisions following a sudden and distressing death of Sarah’s mum.
Jade explained everything to us in detail and answered all our questions with clarity.
Along the way leading up to the funeral she kept us up to date with payments and arrangements, ensuring that the admin aspect of the preparations ran smoothly.

On the 24/02/25 15:29, Ralph phoned us and discussed the final details of the procession and the events on the day.
On the day of the funeral, Ralph allowed us to get changed in a private room (we travelled 200 miles) and further discussed the finer details of the day’s ceremony.
Ralph’s communication was detailed and clear of what was expected throughout the day.
He ensured the coffin was treated respectfully and allowed us time to be at the crematorium after the ceremony.

All the Pallbearers showed the utmost respect to the deceased and were always discreetly present to carry out their duties with uniform excellence.

Albert was our driver of the limousine. He checked up on our comfort in the car and drove smoothly, making safe progress through the afternoon traffic without losing the hearse. His driving skills were such that you could balance a glass of water on the dashboard and it would not spill.

All the staff matched and reflected communication style and adapted to us.

The staff and the service they provided is commendable.

Couldn't fault anything, they were amazing, nothing was too much trouble, brilliant from start to finish, it's a difficult time when you have lost a loved one, they made everything so worry & stress free, I am sure my mother & sisters will attest to this too. Thank you for making a very sad day very special.

Had a very alternative boaters funeral to organise and it went so well! Fabulous personal service from Alistair Price - did everything we wanted.

My mother in law had a prepaid funeral plan with Sellmans. Edward and Rebecca were both amazing. Edward came to the house on the morning she passed away and explained everything we needed to do and who we needed to contact.
When we went to Sellmans in Cannock we met Rebecca who talked us through everything and arranged the floral tributes, order of service booklets and booked the crematorium for us.
Edward came to the house to arrange the order of service and gathered information from us for the eulogy.
Everything was handled to perfection and they were so helpful if I rang up with any queries.
Edward conducted the service and delivered the eulogy, we had a lot of comments as to how lovely it was.
They took the stress out of a very sad time and we really appreciated their professionalism and warmth.

I've recently lost my husband of 53 years of marriage, all the staff at sellman's Cannock were excellent with all aspects of my husband's funeral arrangements, all the staff involved went the extra mile to make his send off as perfect as possible, I on my entire family's behalf can't thank you all enough and personally extend my gratitude, anyone who has the misfortune of losing a loved one I couldn't recommend a better company to give your loved one the best send off.

We recently lost my dad Roy and it wasn't the most easier of deaths we had a lot of trouble outside of this company but AJ sellmens and all the team there were amazing especially Becky and Ralph who we dealt with a lot. They supported and helped us all through this difficult time. They really listened to each and every family member. On the day of my dad funeral there were so many extra small details that they had done to make sure my dad had the most amazing send off. We mentioned that my dad loved Christmas so they took that on aboard and everyone had either a Christmas hat,jumper or a tie on. But not only that when we walked in there was a Christmas tree. Blown away with how amazing these people are.
Thank you so much you made his day that much more special and all about him.
Thank you x
