Crowborough-based SAIF-approved independent funeral director, Tester & Jones Funeral Services, recently marked its 20th anniversary of supporting families in the town. The team, headed by Glenys Jones, invited local clergy and their colleagues into their office in London Road to commemorate its birthday over a delicious afternoon tea.
Reverend Steve Rees from All Saints Church in Crowborough said prayers for the services Tester & Jones provides and for the pastoral support it offers to families; while the Mayor of Crowborough, Councillor Matthew Street, spoke very passionately about the impact Tester & Jones has made on the town over the past two decades. Glenys said she was grateful to everyone for attending and also took the time to thank the Tester & Jones team for everything they do.
Our full-time funeral arrangers – including Branch Manager Sharon, Kim, Jo, Mandy and William – have a wealth of knowledge to help and guide families through every aspect of the funeral arrangements and, along with Glenn and Mike, and our dedicated pallbearers, ensure every aspect of the funeral service runs smoothly on the day. The team understands that no two funerals are the same, because every family and their loved one is unique.
One area which sets Tester & Jones apart from other funeral directors is the continued support the team gives families after a funeral has taken place – particularly through its Bereavement Group (the BGs), which was launched 15 years ago and now has more than 100 members.
Twenty years after launching Tester & Jones, Glenys says: “I really care about the community here in Crowborough and its surrounding villages and want to continue supporting local people, offering traditional care and attention to our families. We are here 24/7 to answer your calls, whatever time of the day or night.”
