Walter C. Parson Funeral Directors

Walter C. Parson Funeral Directors is a family business providing personal, professional and respectful funeral services across the South West Peninsula.

Newton Abbot Funeral Directors Walter C. Parson (incorporating Hugh Mills & Gaye) is a family business established in 1842. It has, either by inheritance or acquisition, remained in the family over seven generations. We strive to deliver a first class service, one which would only be acceptable to a member of our own family. We believe, maintaining this strong ethos through our staff and by training them to the highest standards of the profession, we are able to consistently deliver this service to our clients. Opened in 2009 and situated in the centre of town, our purpose built office has been thoughtfully transformed to provide a dedicated service chapel for 30 people, with customer parking beside the building. Our Newton Abbot office serves Newton Abbot, Bovey Tracey, Teignmouth, Dawlish and the surrounding areas.

A heartfelt thank you to Dawn for her touching feedback about our Torpoint branch, Pidgen & Son. Your appreciation means the world to us.

"We lost Mum after a very short illness, and throughout this difficult time, Pidgen & Son were incredibly sensitive, helpful, and efficient in ensuring all our wishes were respected. Nothing was ever too much trouble — I often received daily phone calls to keep me updated and to make sure everything was proceeding as planned. They gave their time generously, showing genuine care and compassion. I wholeheartedly recommend their company for their outstanding support and professionalism in every aspect of the care they provided for Mum."

Our team at Torquay recently received a lovely thank-you letter from Rowcroft Hospice, and we wanted to share it with you.

"Thanks to people like you, our dedicated teams can radiate the love and warmth of Rowcroft's care at a time when people need it most".

Amanda and the team recently held a coffee morning selling cakes and raffle tickets. Thanks to everyone who generously contributed, we managed to raise £188.30 for this brilliant charity.

Once again, thank you to all who attended and supported Rowcroft Hospice's great work, and thank you, Lisa, for your touching message.

Martyn Hall and Hilary Green were invited to watch the production and were delighted to see the prop we supplied playing a starring role!

Martyn said “We had a great evening – all of the actors were very funny. Thank you very much for the kind invitation”.
