“16/10/2026 Funeral service at St Stephens Church then to City of East London Crematorium.
We didn't choose T.Cribbs and son's. As my brother passed away in a care home, the care home had my brother collected by T.Cribbs and son's.
However I was most grateful for this choice. I was thrown in the deep end hanging to deal with the loss and suddenly take on the responsibility of organising the funeral from afar. T.cribbs were Amazing in every area that I needed help and support. They shone with all the knowledge and guidance I required like the stars they were professional and clear.
Marcus was the funeral director for my brother, Joseph Francis, and I cannot thank him and the entire team at T. Cribb & Sons enough. From the very Start to the end of dropping my parents back safely to their home.
Because I live away, I had to manage all of the arrangements and preparation over the phone for several weeks, and I wasn't able to visit the offices in person. Throughout the entire process, the team kept communication absolutely seamless, followed all my requests. Held a conference call while Marcus did a home visit with my parents, so i could be involved. Marcus and the team navigated it all perfectly. Which was a huge relief. Marcus was also an incredible hands on support to my elderly parents during this difficult time. Without hesitation being their to help them walk, holding them up when my father nearly fainted with the greif. He was right next to them like a Rock.
The day of the funeral was actually my first time meeting Marcus and the team in person at the church. During such an intense, emotional moment, Marcus had a comforting persona that felt like meeting an old friend. It completely lifted my soul and instantly put me at ease, lifting the heavy weight of all the long-distance planning I had been carrying. We are so grateful for their professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. From our entire family Thank you to your whole team.”

“We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to everyone at T. Cribbs funeral directors for the impeccable care and support you provided before and during Mum's funeral.
From Jenny and Lindsey in the office, who guided us through every step with kindness and professionalism, to Phill and his team on the day, every member of staff was outstanding. Throughout the entire process, it never felt as though you were simply looking after Mum; it felt as though you were looking after us as well.
The day itself was managed seamlessly. Your team ensured that everything and everyone was where they needed to be, allowing us to focus on remembering and celebrating Mum's life. Nothing was too much trouble, from guiding family and friends through the proceedings to holding umbrellas over us at the graveside in the rain.
Your compassion, attention to detail and quiet professionalism made a difficult day so much easier to bear. We are deeply grateful for the care, dignity and respect you showed Mum and our family throughout.
Thank you for providing such a sterling service from start to finish.
With sincere gratitude,
Angela, Debby, Jeff and Steve”

Ed looked after us in the office and arranged everything perfectly, handling every detail with the utmost care.

“I have no words to thank you enough for your services and support you gave us during the most difficult times.
Pastor Odima you are Pillar our Kenya community the support you gave us we can't thank you enough.”
“Life-saving care during the worst possible time.
When my brother unexpectedly passed away in New York at a young age, I was completely overwhelmed and devastated. I had no idea how to manage repatriation.
Andre at T Cribbs Funeral Directors was in charge of the Repatriation Team. He was extraordinary. He was incredibly knowledgeable, calm, and reassuring from our very first call. He guided me through every step of bringing my brother home and gave me confidence when I had none.
I ran into major issues getting the death certificate. Andre immediately liaised with their US counterparts who were also fantastic, and they secured a copy for me. Any problem that came up, Andre found a solution.
In the middle of absolute heartbreak, Andre’s professionalism, compassion and dedication made an impossible situation so much easier.
If you ever need help with repatriation, please ask for Andre. T Cribbs and Andre gave us the most respectful, caring service and I cannot thank them enough.
Kind regards
Carmen”
“From the very first meeting to the final farewell, T Cribbs provided exceptional care, compassion, and professionalism while arranging my father's funeral.
Every member of the team was incredibly attentive to our family's needs, and nothing was ever too much trouble. They even made a special stop on the New Gallows Corner flyover, which meant a great deal to us and showed how willing they were to go the extra mile to honour our wishes.
Throughout the entire day, they treated my mother with the utmost respect, kindness, and dignity, ensuring she felt supported every step of the way. The organisation was flawless, from the dignified carrying of my father's coffin into the chapel to coordinating the family as we lowered his casket into the grave. Even what could have been a daunting moment was handled with such calm professionalism and warmth that it became a cherished family memory, bringing smiles as well as tears.
The undertakers and pallbearers struck the perfect balance between professionalism and genuine personality. Their compassion, patience, and kindness made an incredibly difficult day so much easier for our family.
I cannot recommend T Cribbs highly enough. They gave my father the perfect send-off, and despite the sadness of the occasion, they helped create memories that we will treasure forever.
Thank you all so much for everything you did. The Bates family , Romford”

“My darling mum (Pat Grayburn) was taken on her final Journey on Friday. From the fist meeting with Dawn at St Mary's Lane, Upminster branch we felt at ease after the most heartbreaking 48 hours. From then on nothing was offf limits, phone calls, little chats with so much reassurance made the worst time of lives a little easier. On the day Paul looked after us as though we were his own family. We were so thankful as we were so emotional on a very hot Friday afternoon. The order of service was so pretty and Rev. Derek Talbot personalised the service so well. The worst day of our lives was made bearable with full of love.”

I appreciate their professionalism and dedication. Thank you again you have made my parents both very proud with a perfect final farewell. Thank you Reena & Family.”
“We recently had a funeral for my late Uncle Isaac. We joined Tcribbs and sons in February I believe. They have taken very good care of us from the start. Patient and understanding of our individual needs as a family. The night before the funeral they gave us a contact number in case we needed support. On the day of the funeral they were timely and supportive. Everything went perfectly. I am so grateful. I really recommend Tcribbs and sons!!”
“From start to finish everyone was so kind and accommodating to me in organising my mums funeral from the organising of the service to visiting mum in the chapel of rest to the day of the funeral everything was impeccable a big thank you to Emma for organising the service and facilitating my visits to the chapel of rest to Shona for her beautiful designs of the order of services and to Jim for his wonderful work on the day of the funeral especially giving me a pair of shoes for the funeral as i didn't have any and allowing me to ride on the hearse with mum to the crematorium when we got to the city of london cemetery it's something I will never forget and will forever be grateful for so thank you from the bottom of my heart Jim your one in a million a credit to T Cribb and Sons.
